- Pot up plugs into 9cm pots and grow on for transplanting into final containers or baskets later on.
- Grow petunia plants on in warm frost free conditions.
- Pinch back the stems while the plants are still young to encourage them to produce bushier growth and more flowers.
- When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise petunias to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days.
