Seed soaking and germination

Seed soaking and germination method is mainly divided into two steps: one is soaking and the other is germination

Common water temperature for seed soaking

75-85 degrees are hot water soaking seeds, 55-60 degrees are warm soup soaking seeds, and 25-30 degrees are warm water soaking seeds. The time of the first two soaking methods is very short, and they need to be stirred continuously in the same direction. When the water temperature drops to 25-30 degrees, soak the seeds

Soaking Suitable seeds

Scalding is usually used for seeds with hard seed coat and leather or wax, while soaking seeds in warm water is suitable for vegetable seeds with thin seed coat and fast water absorption

Container budding

Wrap the soaked seeds with clean cloth and put them in a clean container. A mud basin with good water absorption and ventilation can be selected. Lay a sorghum stalk on the bottom of the basin to prevent the seeds from being damaged by the ponding on the basin bottom, cover the basin with a clean towel to prevent the water from evaporating, and put it in a suitable temperature environment to promote germination

Sand mixed germination

This method is suitable for small seeds or seeds with slow germination. Mix the washed sand and seeds in a certain proportion, put them in a mud basin, cover them with a towel or other covering to moisturize them, and put them under appropriate temperature conditions to promote germination< span>
