💗 Jewelweed Impatiens Capensis Grow and Care Instructions💗

~ Grow Instructions ~

1. Sow seed in a peat-light mix or sterilized, well-aerated soil mix.

2. Fill the flats or pots (depending on which you prefer to use) full; level and firm around the edges and corners.

3. Water thoroughly with hot water (100 degrees F or more). Wait 30-60 minutes or more and repeat this procedure.

4. Let the starting mix cool to a touchable temperature.

5. Sow the impatiens seed thinly (about 4-6 seeds per inch), by pressing the seed into the starting mixture -- do not cover the seed with starting mixture.

6. Cover the flat, tray or pots (whichever you have chosen to use) loosely with plastic wrap to hold in humidity.

7. Place flat, tray or pots on bottom heat. Bottom heat will maintain the proper temperature. Strive for a soil temperature of 75-78 degrees F (but never go over 85 degrees F). If you cover the flats, trays or pots with glass to keep humidity high, you will run the risk of cooking the seeds. It is best to cover loosely to let in some air.

8. Set in full light.

9. A mist system may help in the germination of impatiens seed. Be careful not to overdo and drown the seed. Misting may be suspended on cloudy days. Bright, hot days may require additional misting. Use caution, it is easy to overdo misting. Impatiens seed germinates very successfully without the use of a mist system, if covered loosely.

~ Care Instructions ~

The most important thing to remember about impatiens plants is to water them regularly. Keep them moist, but not too wet. If the plants dry out, they will lose their leaves. If you over-water the plants, this could encourage fungal diseases.

*Remember container plants will need more water.

How much sun impatiens can take depends on your climate zone, the intensity of the sun, and the location where they’ll be growing. Part shade with bright light is their sweet spot for looking good and flowering away ike the champs they are.

Impatiens will let you know if they’re not happy. If they’re growing in a shady spot and not getting enough light, the growth will become leggy and the flowers will be smaller or non-existent.

Impatiens have succulent stems which are full of water. They’ll burn in the direct, hot sun and will need full or afternoon shade. In a location with cooler summers, full sun is fine. The cool sun is totally different from the hot sun.

Impatiens flower non-stop for many months. It takes a fair amount of energy to keep those blooms abundant. Adding compost when you plant helps, and so does fertilizing. You can go with a slow-release fertilizer, a water-soluble fertilizer (you’ll need to do this more often), or one you work into the soil.
