Sowing time

Generally speaking, Rhododendron is suitable for sowing in autumn, but flower friends in the north can choose to sow indoors in early spring

Selection of soil

Although the seed germination does not need to absorb nutrients from the outside, choosing a fertile soil is more conducive to the growth of young plants after budding

It is afraid of waterlogging and likes the humid growth environment, so it should choose the cultivation soil with certain moisturizing ability but no ponding

Cultivation soil with certain aeration capacity should be selected, which is conducive to better germination of seeds

Before sowing, the configuration diagram should be disinfected with liquid medicine or exposure to the sun to ensure a good germination environment for seeds

Planting method

Apply some base fertilizer on the prepared planting soil to provide certain nutritional supplement, and then add a small amount of rotten flowers and leaves to ensure a certain humus content

Prepare a flowerpot of appropriate size. The specific size can be determined according to your weight and quality

Completely immerse the flowerpot in disinfectant for disinfection for at least 30 minutes. Then take out the flowerpot and wash it with pure water for at least three times to ensure that there is no residual disinfectant

Then put it in a windy place until it is dry. At this time, it is necessary to avoid some dirt touching the inside of the flowerpot, causing secondary pollution

Put the sterilized cultivation soil into the flowerpot, do not put it too full, so that the volume of cultivation soil accounts for about 80% of the volume of the flowerpot

Use a shovel to level the soil surface. Be careful not to press the soil surface hard, and gently level it

Sprinkle the prepared seeds evenly on the soil surface. Note that the action should not be too hard. It is best to take and put them gently. It has good conditions to ensure that the seed will not be damaged during germination

At this time, pay attention to sowing seeds evenly, not more than one piece and less. In this way, it can ensure that each seed has enough space to grow and will not be difficult to sprout due to lack of resources. Secondly, it can ensure that the grown plants are evenly distributed and will not affect the ornamental quality of the whole plant

Finally, cover it with a layer of 1 ~ 3cm planting soil, pour the planting soil with a kettle until it is wet, and then the planting is completed
