ow seed indoors 6-12 weeks before the last frost depending on your zone. Seeds soaked overnight help jumpstart the process. Sow the large seed ½ inch deep into well-draining soil and keep at 60% humidity in full sun or under lamps. After 4-5 weeks, transplant into larger pots, taking care not to disrupt the taproot.

Choose a potting soil or seed-starting mix for your germinating seeds. Plant seeds about a quarter-inch deep in your potting mix, and keep in warm, sunny conditions—at least 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. After two to three weeks, your hibiscus seedlings should sprout.

You can plant the seeds directly outdoors in the garden in spring. Wait until the danger of frost has passed. Or start the seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting outside for an earlier start to the growing season. Soak the seeds overnight or lightly nick the hard outer covering (seed coat) before planting.. . . . .364011234053!]0000000000000009783314145307!]
