Carnation (Dianthus Caryophyllus) Saplings: Hardened Rooted Plug Trays vs Seeds
Starting Carnation (Dianthus Caryophyllus) from raw seed often results in uneven germination, damping-off fungus, and fragile leggy stems that collapse under weather shifts. Nursery-hardened plug saplings bypass these risks entirely, arriving with an active root ball ready for vigorous growth.
