How to sow dandelions outdoors?
Sow dandelions directly in spring or late summer, allowing enough time for plants to establish before severe frost. Choose well-drained soil in sun and prepare a fine, weed-free surface.
Sow thinly and barely cover the seeds, which need light to germinate. Firm gently and water with a fine spray. Keep the surface slightly moist during germination.
Thin young plants according to the packet and variety size. Watch for slug damage and wait until rosettes are well established before harvesting.
