For growing, you will need containers or trays with drainage holes.

Follow these steps:

1. Place the wet growing seed mix into the trays.
2. Sprinkle the seeds on top and press into the mixture.
3. Place trays under grow lights for a minimum of 14 hours per day.
4. Spray the seeds with water so that they do not dry out.
5. When the seedlings germinate, you need to spray it a little less often.
6. Thin out seedlings to make room for root development.Leave the containers outside for a while so that the forget-me-not gets used to the temperature.
7. For planting seeds outdoors, work and clear the soil of weeds.

The soil should be nutrient-rich, well drained and moist.

In addition, forget-me-nots are frost-resistant plants that tolerate winter well and do not need special preparation.

The problem may be that forget-me-nots are freezing all over the garden. In this case, you can cut off the seed heads from the plant.
