  • Hi Folks! In this video we talk about planting our annual China Asters. These are beautiful flowers that add a touch of class to any arrangement. We'll give you the scoop on the long day nature of this plant and what that means for producing a quality cut flower. We also go over how we plan to fertilize using Jadam techniques to build soil and plant fertility.

    Thanks so much for de-mystifying long-day sensitivity for me! Last season's asters were cute as a button, and not much taller!! Those beds became my little girl's personal posy-picking patch ;)

    Very good information! I’m in zone 3 just starting some seeds in mid-March . We’ll see how it goes.

      Hi, zone 3 means a short growing season. Best wishes for great seed germination and a great growing season. Thanks for watching.

    Thanks for a very informative video! I haven't grown aster before so I'm a complete newbie with it and this was very helpful!

      I am getting ready to seed the china asters next week. We want them to grow as long as possible before the summer equinox.

      @@BareMtnFarm I planted some in January strictly for a germination experiment and they did great, but then the leaves had spots on them. I'd pinch them off and then the next row of leaves would get the spots. I just planted my first China Asters last week and am going to plant another succession in about two weeks. Thank you for your videos!

    I started seeds beginning of March. Planted them out early May. Started to set flower buds early June to my surprise. Haven't bloomed yet, though.

    good explanation of "day length"; I'm bummed as I've missed the seeding time for this year.
    I'll put it on my calendar for the end of March so I'll have a reminder for next year.

    Do you happen to have any pictures of these asters that you started in June that did not grow very tall? I only ask because I'm interested as a balcony gardener to have potted plants that will bloom in the fall. So I wondered if I did potted planting of asters in June would I get something that would flower but still say reasonably small in the pot?

  • @dori5969

    Wonderful info on long day plants. I would get confused about whether the long day would trigger blooms or vegetative growth. I declared a couple weeks ago that I had had it with asters. I have trouble with germination. And I had to ditch my tray of seedlings as they maybe had aster yellows. I was doing Masamoto mix for addition to mixed bouquets. Are these that you are showing a single stem per plant or multiple single stems per plant. I wasn't clear on that. Thank you very much.

    What irrigation tubing do you use? I’m having trouble with our hole getting plugged up.

    Do you have a video on planting your aster seeds or growing the seedlings ?

    • @BareMtnFarm
      @BareMtnFarm  2 роки тому

      Not yet. I put it on the list of seeding various flowers on my video list. Thank you so much for watching.

  • @dddev641

    Are those plugs or from seed ?
    Did you use soil ?

    • @BareMtnFarm
      @BareMtnFarm  2 роки тому +1

      I seeded them in 3/4 inch mini soil blocks and then bumped them up to 6 packs in a 72 plug tray.
