The first dive is carried out 5-7 weeks after sowing, when real leaves appear, leaving 6-8 cm between plants. In the future, plants are watered more moderately. Begonia prefers a long daylight hours.

Care: moderate regular watering, top dressing is carried out 7-10 days after landing in a permanent place with a complex mineral fertilizer. When developing it, it can be trimmed, since begonia has the ability to resume shoots.

Flowering: from sowing to blooming plants, 10-14 weeks, but for flowering in late May, begonia can be sown earlier (over 14 -16 weeks before the estimated flowering date) so that the plants are stronger. In this case, when growing, it is necessarily used by watering (daylight hours of at least 12 hours), and in April they contain plants at a temperature of not higher than 16-18 ° C so that the begonia does not grow.
