Positioning a compost filled seed tray beneath flowering Primulas where ripe seed can fall, and leaving it in situ throughout the year, over winter and into the following spring has proven to be a successful self-sowing method of raising Primula seedlings. Plant out into the garden in late summer and early autumn or retain the pots in the greenhouse, well ventilated and in the shade for planting out early spring. Transplant the seedlings into individual 3 inch pots using a moisture retaining growing medium. Once germination has taken place, scatter a thin layer of compost over the sprouted seeds and grow on in a shady position until 6 true leaves have formed. Do not allow the sowing to dry out, even for an hour, ensure that the surface of the compost remains moist without over-wetting at all times. Scatter the seed across the surface of moistened seedling compost and place the seed trays or pots into a dark cupboard to ensure absolute shade.
