A full sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to water moderately. Flaco is generally regarded as a tender plant, so remember to ensure that temperatures are mild before moving outdoors. Flaco needs a soil ph of 6.0 to 6.8 (weakly acidic soil).

Growing Flaco from seed

Aim to sow 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 3.9 inches (10.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 16°C / 61°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Flaco about 14 days after your last frost date.

Transplanting Flaco

Flaco is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
