Do you want to grow black-eyed susan seeds in Indiana, but don’t know when to start them?

Starting black-eyed susan seeds is not as easy as it seems.

Here’s why:

• Black-Eyed Susan Seeds must be consistently watered, receive at least 8 hours of sunlight a day, & be kept at room temperature of at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

So if you don’t consistently water them they won’t germinate. If they aren’t in a room that is at least 70 degrees Fahrenheit they won’t sprout. And if it receives 8 hours of sunlight the plant itself won’t grow.

• Because Indiana’s growing season is not long enough, black-eyed susan seeds cannot be sowed outside and should only be started indoors.

Because of this, I’m going to teach you the ideal time to start black-eyed susan seeds indoors in Indiana:

When to Start Black-Eyed Susan Seeds Indoors

Depending on the type of black-eyed susan, it takes roughly 7 to 10 days to grow black-eyed susan from seed indoors before you can transplant them into your garden. And it could take 60 days for your black-eyed susan to bloom!

The approximate date of when you should start your black-eyed susan seeds indoors can be found by:

• Finding the last average frost date HERE
• And then subtract 7 days from it

You can also find the average last frost date for most major cities in the below chart that I have created:

To help ensure the greatest success of your black-eyed susan seeds germinating you should:

• Use a heat mat to ensure the gardening pot remains at 70 degrees Fahrenheit
• Use a grow light to control how much light your black-eyed susan seeds receive
• Water your seeds with a spray bottle to ensure your seeds are not overwatered

It should also be noted that you will not want to introduce your black-eyed susan plants into your garden until 2 weeks after your last frost or else your plant will potentially die or not bloom
