Black-Eyed Susan Sowing Instructions
Planting Depth:1/4” Seed Spacing:1” Plant Spacing:12”-24” Days to Germination:5-10 days Germination Temperature:70°-75°F
Rudbeckia hirta. This perennial favorite prefers to
be started indoors and transplanted out. Eight
weeks prior to the last hard frost, sow seeds 1"
apart in a good seed-starting medium at 70° to
75°F. Cover lightly and provide even moisture,
strong light and good ventilation. Once
established, transplant the strongest seedlings
to deeper individual pots for superior root
development. When the plants are 4" tall,
acclimate the seedlings by gradually exposing
them to outdoor conditions for 1 to 2 weeks.
After the threat of a hard frost has passed,
transplant out into well-draining, loamy soil in
full to filtered sunlight. Space plants 12" to 24"
apart in the garden. If started early enough in the
spring, this popular cut flower may bloom the
first year. Summer flowering. Height: 2' to 3'.
