2. TIME OF SOWING

If possible seed should be sown so that seedlings are a good size to be planted out at the beginning of the monsoon.
To do this the time of seed sowing has to be worked out carefully.
Time must be allowed for germination and growth. This will be different for different species and for different nurseries.
It is essential to keep records of sowing time, germination and growth for all species in the nursery so that you can work out the best time to sow to get large seedlings for the beginning of the monsoon.
