Dahlias are distinguished by their undemanding nature and can delight with their flowering even if they are planted in dense shade.
However, as the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh rightly notes, the location affects the size and color of the inflorescences.
Therefore, if you want beautiful buds to decorate your plot for as long as possible, it is worth allocating a site for dahlias located in light partial shade.
In this case, the appearance of the plant will not be affected in any way, but the flowering period will reach its maximum values.
Another condition that is definitely worth observing if you are not indifferent to the flowering of dahlias is maintaining humidity at a moderate level.
Now let's get to the point we're here for and reveal a secret that will help you speed up the flowering of your dahlias.
To do this, you will have to germinate them first. How to do this? Place the tubers on a layer of light soil (sawdust will do), and cover the container with the planting material with polyethylene on top, leaving a small gap.
Don't forget to regularly spray the tubers with a spray bottle, which will help awaken the growth buds after the winter period.
