Primrose is very easy to grow. Sow the seed direct to the soil or can  use a big  a ready  pot for til to  flowering.

Use a flat seedling tray and its deep will be 10 centimeter, and fill  seedling media to within 3/4  of the rim with a sterile potting soil or sieved vermiculite as a professional  media . Fill the tray with diluted fungicide water (2gm in 1 liter water) . Make sure you have plenty of holes in it for good water drainage. And  Allow the soil in the flat to absorb the water through the bottom drainage holes until the soil surface becomes moist.

Sow seeds after soak the seeds overnight on the soil surface  apart 2 in. Since the seeds were tiny, need to cover with sieved vermiculite dust for a  light covering . This way the seeds will  hide . Do not  put  the seed deep  inside so  be  careful about putting the seed because seeds will not to go deep inside the mixture. 

Moist again with diluted fungicide water ensure the  soil surface it's evenly moist. Ideal germination temperature is between 12 and 15 degrees Centigrade. Lower temperatures do no harm, but anything over 18 Centigrade is fatal. 


 Inspect regularly and water as necessary. Do not allow the compost to dry out.The Primula usually sprout within 15  to 20 days.As soon as the seeds sprout remove the cover. Protect against slugs. Polyanthus and primrose sprout within three weeks. Few species are slower and  may take six weeks. Most of the species need natural freezing and thawing to get them started so it's important to sow as early as possible.

Use a dilute fungicide water  for this sprinkling as a prophylactic against damping off.
Gradually move the pot to a brighter area with six to eight hours of daily sunlight for  two-week period so that at the end of that time they're acclimated to being in full sunlight. Water the seedlings when the soil surface feels dry.

Transplant the Primula outdoors or in a new pot when they  at least four leaves. Plant at the them 8 to 14 inches apart on ready ground with same depth  were they  growing at previously. Primulas establish much faster if a good root system has developed before they are moved. Wait until you have at least four leaves before you prick out.

Sow Outdoors: Surface. Following the last frost. Spacing 4 to 24 inches (10 to 60 cm).

Sow Indoors: Mix seeds in a growing medium, place in a freezer bag, keep moist, then stratify by refrigeration for two to three weeks. Use peat pots. Germination time: one to three weeks in the light. Temperature 75°F (24°C). Seven or eight weeks in advance. Transplant outdoors in the last month of spring.
