GROWING LISIANTHUS FROM SEED IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NOVICE SEED STARTERS. Although lisianthus may not be difficult to germinate (7-14 days), they are difficult to grow on to transplant for two reasons:
Time: Expect to maintain the plants for 8-10 weeks before transplanting. Letting them dry out or over watering just once can cause issues, so plan accordingly.
Temperatures: To avoid rosetting and poor blooming, keep cool temperatures at night 55-59°F and days between 72-80°F until transplant. This generally can not be maintained on a light stand.
