Planting instructions
Lavender plants are usually planted the best in spring as the soil is warming up. However, if you are planting in the fall, make sure to use bigger plants. This will ensure their survival through the winter season. Sow the seeds 2 to 3 feet apart because Lavender plants can grow to a height of 1 to 3 feet. Lavender plants thrive in poor or moderately fertile soil. But, if you have heavy or clay soil, adding some organic compost or manure will help to improve drainage. Rock or pea gravel works particularly well as organic mulch to keep the weeds at bay. However, keep the mulch away from the crown of the plant.
Lavender plants do not need regular watering. After planting, until the plants have established, you can water them once or twice a week. Water the seedlings every 2 to 3 weeks until buds start to grow. From this stage to the harvesting season, increase the water dosage to once or twice a week.
When green leaves start to appear at the base of the plant, prune them by removing about ⅓ rd inch from the top.
Do not exclude sunlight as it plays a great role in the germination of the seedlings.
