- Keep the soil adequately moist. It is important to plant the seedling in full sun. Petunia requires the soil to be well-drained all the time. So water the plants only when the soil is dry. Water deeply to build stronger roots.
- Do not plant petunia behind a taller plant as the shade will block the sunlight. The plant requires at least 4 hours of full sun
- Petunia flowers throughout the year. It is important to deadhead Petunia about once per week. Removing older blooms and shearing will support lush growth.
- Petunia expect lucious soil to grow bigger and bloom better, thus it is important to fertilize every 1-2 weeks. Petunia blooms require balanced Nitrogen-Phosphorus-Potassium fertilizer. Using water soluble fertilizers is suggested.
- The flowers are also susceptible to pest attacks. The plant is also susceptible to powdery mildew and other fungal attacks as it cannot tolerate overwatering.
