Growing Hypoestes (Polka Dot Plant) Help please!
Posted: Sun Apr 14, 2019 8:26 pm
Hi, there! I am pretty new to growing plants but I've really been bitten by the bug! I have six succulents among other plants, but that's not why I'm posting. The first plant I grew was from a seed starter kit and it was a hypoestes plant, or a polka dot plant. I really loved that little plant but unfortunately, it died due to my own fault. Well, now I've ordered some more seeds of this same kind and I'm very excited to try to grow some more. My question is what sort of soil I should grow my seeds in. Currently, I have some cactus soil for repotting my succulents and I believe I also have some regular potting soil. Can anyone help me with this?
Also, I'm curious about how often to water these plants - I'm good with succulents because they aren't watered very often, but of course hypoestes are not the same at all. Thanks for the help
