we have a geranium plant that probably needed to be deadheaded a WHILE ago.. however I didn't know about this until I came to this forum.. I also thought deadheading them anytime was fine.. however I found out you need to do this before they make the seeds.. The blooms on the geraniums were very dried out.. but some WEREN't making seeds yet. however it has been about 2-3 weeks and I do not see ANY blooms at ALL.
Sow seed geraniums in well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0 to 6.2. The seeds do not need light to germinate, but a thin layer of vermiculite helps retain moisture. Seed geraniums also benefit from light fertilization one to three days after sowing. Sow seeds indoors about eight to 10 weeks before moving them outdoors with other warm-weather annuals.
