1、 Seedling raising time

There are two main time periods for cucumber seedling cultivation, which can be sown from January to march in early spring. At this time, the climate is mild and the growth speed is fast, which is very conducive to germination and emergence. Another time is from June to August in summer and autumn. The climate is cool and pleasant, which is also helpful for vegetable growth

2、 Select seed

According to the local climatic conditions, select appropriate seeds to ensure good quality, screen the seeds and pick out the withered and damaged seeds. After the seeds are selected, they cannot be sown immediately. They need to be treated. Soak the seeds in hot water, maintain a temperature of about 55 degrees, and take them out after about half an hour. After washing with clean water, soak it in clean water for 6-8 hours, then wrap it in wet gauze and put it in an environment of 25-30 degrees for germination. After 2-3 days, it will show white, and then you can sow

3、 Sowing seeds

When the seedling tray is ready, peat soil, perlite and vermiculite can be mixed in the same proportion to ensure fertility, looseness and air permeability. Organic fertilizer is added at the bottom. After preparing the soil, pour water into it, and sow the seeds. Cover it with thin soil, about 0.5-1 cm. Adjust the surrounding temperature to 24-30 degrees
