How to sprout the latest watermelon seeds

Watermelon is a common and popular national fruit, which is planted on a large scale every year. Watermelon planting is generally sown by seeds, seed germination can be seed treatment, so how to deal with seeds to let seeds germinate, is also a problem that can be discussed. The time of germination and other aspects of different varieties will be different. So it needs to be considered comprehensively.

1. Seed drying

Before the seed treatment, you need to sun up the seeds, do not dry the seeds for too long, generally dry the seeds for a few hours, get rid of some moisture inside the seeds, and turn over the sun during the drying period to ensure uniform water loss. You can't just bask in one side. In this way, the seeds are easy to sprout, which is good for soaking seeds.

2. Soaking seeds

Soaking seeds, we must let the seeds soak in warm water, the general water temperature is about 50 degrees, thin skin can adjust the water temperature, anyway, can not hurt the seeds, the general water temperature will gradually drop. Stirring soaking seeds, after a period of time, the water temperature drops, you can not stir, directly soak seeds.

3. Heat preservation and budding

Seeds can sprout after absorption and expansion, about one to two days after soaking. There are many methods to accelerate germination, such as heat preservation and germination, for example, common and conditional, that is, after draining the seeds, they are wrapped with gauze in the incubator to accelerate germination, set between 22 and 25 degrees, wash once a day, germinate after a few days or body temperature germination, generally the seeds are wrapped with wet cloth, and then a waterproof cloth bag for outer bread is carried on the body, which can be germinated by body temperature and can be removed after germination. Most of the budding methods are heat preservation and budding.

4. Rapid budding

If you are almost past the sowing time, but want to sow, you can also hasten the germination urgently and plant it quickly. But to carry out some special treatment of the seed, after soaking the seed, use small scissors, the top of the seed artificially break the seed coat, as long as a small cut, do not hurt the inside of the seed. Then put it in the incubator to promote sprouting, so that white exposure is faster.

5. Sowing seeds

Accelerate the germination of white seeds to sow, we should pay attention to one point, the buds should be down, or covered with thin sand, otherwise the new buds are easy to lose water and die. It is best to sow seeds in containers, not in the open field. Container sowing is easier to manage and saves seeds. After sowing, direct allocation of fine sand culture soil, easy to grow, moisturizing. It is good for seedling emergence.

Watermelon seed coat is medium thickness, so it is not necessary to soak seeds at too high temperature, hot water is mainly for disinfection. You can also choose to soak in disinfectant solution. Sprouting is mainly heat preservation and budding, and there is no restriction on one way.
