Light is beneficial for germination. Keep Primrose seeds moist but not saturated. After the Primrose seedlings get their second or third leaves they can be transplanted to a protected outdoor seedbed or individual pots. Plant out in late winter or early spring. When planting Primrose Primula Acaulis plants into their permanent place, amend the garden soil with plenty of organic matter and use a slow release fertilizer.
