Depends on the temperature and how deep they were planted and if they got enough moisture. The ones I planted took 14-21 days to pop up above the ground. I planted them 3-4 inches deep. DO NOT weed the area during this time because the baby glads look like stray grass weeds. Be sure to plant them with the proper side up. What looks like root can be a sprout and some people plant them upside down. You can try placing the bulbs in a tray of shallow water and let them sprout new green growth and then plant them in the ground, green growth upwards.

Does the depth at which the seeds are planted have any effect on their germination?

yes, if the seed is planted too deeply it may not germinate at all (conditions not met), or the seedling may run out of "food reserves" before it has had time to reach the surface and the primary leaves to open. normally the ideal planting depth is twice the diameter of the seed

How deep should garlic be planted?

When planting garlic cloves in the fall (the proper time to do it), they should be planted 2 to 2 1/2 inches deep, base down. Cover and tamp down. When planted in the spring (which will result in smaller bulbs at harvest) they should be planted just below the surface. Keep well weeded - garlic hates competing with weeds. And plant only large cloves, if you want good-sized heads. Small cloves make small heads.


Does it matter how you plant a seed?

Read the directions on the package! As a general rule, you should plant seeds the same depth as their size. Some seeds need to be well covered, others can practically sit on the surface (like grass seed). Certain things, like bulbs, should be planted top side up but they will find their way to the surface even if planted upside down, although it is better if you can work out which end is up. Some seeds need to be scored or soaked first to achieve proper germination. It depends on what you are planting.

If they were able to grow, then they obviously weren't planted too deep. Most sunflowers can be planted up to six inches deep and still germinate, though it will take longer to make it to the surface.

How deep are 30 yr old birch tree roots?

No one answer will answer this question.What type of soil is it planted in? Where is it's water source?If it has to pass rock to obtain water, then it could be 10 or 20 meters.If it is planted next to or within a grass lawn, the roots will spread across the lawn. In this scenario, the roots will be found on the surface or just under the surface, under 6 inches in depth. You may find an occasional branch root of a surface (or near surface) root which goes down a foot.
