Instructions:
Store these seeds in a cool, dry place if not planting right away. It is recommend to plant them right away, the longer they are stored, the lower the germination rates will be.
These seeds grow slowly, so we recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
To plant: pre-soak the seeds in water for 12-48 hours(optionally, to sterilize the seeds, you can also soak in hydrogen peroxide for 2 hours). Sow the seeds in very moist potting medium, and cover with a humidity dome. It is important to keep the seeds >70F, and out of direct sunlight(grow lights or filtered sun is best).
Once the seeds sprout. you can start to remove the humidity dome.

It took three tries to get any of these to sprout, but I’m happy I didn’t give up!
Thank you very much! The wait wasn't long at all! Definitely will recommend to friends and family! I look forward to my seeds growing 🫂❤️
Only 3 Coleus seeds sprouted. I followed all the instructions very carefully. I contacted the shop owner about it. I'm definitely not happy. I won't be ordering again from this company.
I can see it sprouting a little, I’m so excited to see it grow and mature
Great packaging and planting instructions
