Default Trollius Seeds

Sorry for asking for help (again!) with my Trollius seeds. And thank
you for all your kind replies to my recent questions.

My Trollius seeds are coming through however only about 6 of many,
many more planted have germinated. Those that have germinated look
extremely fragile and I'm unsure what to do for the best next. Do I
uproot them from the seedling tray and pot them up? And if so, what is
the best mixture to make sure they don't look any more fragile than
they already are.

No, I wouldn't uproot them at this time of the year; it's a stressful
time for seedlings.

The trouble with seeds germinating at the moment is both cold and lack
of light. I think the most important thing is the conditions you keep
them in. I would say they should be cool (because you don't want them to
grow too fast without more daylight) but frost-free, and as light as
possible, but out of any scorching sunlight.

They might carry on germinating intermittently and it may be that later
ones do best in the long run.
