How To Pre-Sprout Ranunculus Corms / Grow Ranunculus For Early Flowers

This is how I pre-sprout Ranunculus corms to give them a head start so that they flower a few weeks earlier.

I pre-sprout the ranunculus in trays of compost before transferring the sprouted corms into larger 15 cell trays or 9cm pots. Once they have been hardened off, later in the season I will plant these in larger garden pots for cutting or in the garden beds to enjoy.

I hope this has been useful and interesting but do let me know if you have any questions. I will post a video when I pot these up and plant them out in the garden once the danger of frost has passed, so do subscribe to this channel so that you don’t miss the video.

It’s difficult to know how to express myself on social media when there is so much sorrow and devastation in the world we live in, particularly in Ukraine. My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine.
