Cinnamon - The Polysporin Of Plants

So you’re ready to start those seeds, Wohoo! Depending on what you are planting, some seeds need to be started indoors 12+ weeks before the last frost. This date will vary, depending on what zone you are growing in.

Some seeds are divas. They like things justttt so. Lisianthus for example. They need to be started indoors about 16 weeks before planting outside. They like warm moist soil, and a humid environment. Sounds like the ideal growing conditions, but also for uninvited things like fungus.

Cinnamon to the rescue! Cinnamon had antifungal and antimicrobial properties. When sprinkled on the spoil, it aids in diminishing fungal growth, letting those little seedling babies grow!

Think of Cinnamon as the natural polysporin for plants. When diving Tubers, dip the fresh cut in cinnamon to decrease the risk of mold. Pinching your snapdragon seedlings and want to plant your cuttings to double your supply? Dip the ends in cinnamon before planting in soil.

Its natural, cost effective, and smells like a hug. Why not try it!
