Dandelion seeds

[DanaLachney]

How long does it take for dandelion seeds to dry out, and I have them in a bowl in the window does that matter?

I don't know. If you don't get someone that knows. Call a nursery and see if they know. You might also be able to get the answer from Carolina pet supply seeing they sell them. Good luck

Im just messing with her, she was saying in another post that she was having trouble growing them. So what kind of torts are you getting?

Do they need to dry out? By the time they are ready to blow off the stalk, aren't they good to go?

Hmmm idk I read in another post that the actual seed was supposed to fall off the fluffy part.

How long till they dry out?

 

[DanaLachney]

Apparently my thumb must be so black I can't even get seeds to dry out. Anybody know if the little white puff has to be removed from dandy seeds before they can be planted?

 

[cljohnson]

I planted some 2 weeks ago directly from the little puff ball. They are already coming up.
I just rubbed them in my hand a little to separate the seeds from the fluff. Scattered them on a flat of old used potting soil. Barely scratch them in. Very shallow I think is key.
Don't over think it. They are weeds after all. Most people can't stop them from growing.

 

[Merlin M]

I would imagine that they would be fine to just be planted, drying seeds out I think is more about preserving them for the next season not necessarily for planting right away. After all would they get a chance to dry out in the wild?

 

[DanaLachney]

Ok so I have alot of leftover topsoil in the bag after making Moonpie's enclosure can I use that to plant them?
