Last Updated: 2024/11/23, Lettuce is grown in all major areas of our country, because of its simple planting management, better sales in the market and better planting efficiency, it attracts many people to grow it. But many people often sprout poorly or rarely when planting, so what is it?

Lettuce is cultivated in all major areas of our country. Because of its simple planting management, it is more popular in the market and has better planting benefits, so it attracts many people to plant. But many people often germinate poorly or rarely when planting lettuce seeds. So what are the ways to improve the germination rate of lettuce seeds? Let's take a look at the method of germination of lettuce seeds.

1. Sowing time

Lettuce likes cold climate and does not like high temperature environment, but it is not cold-resistant. The growth temperature is 15-20 degrees, so its sowing time is very long, so it is sown from August of that year to February of the following year. Of course, the best sowing time is October to December, and of course it can be guaranteed in March to July, but the yield may not be high. Its seed germination rate is not high, so it should be germinated before sowing to improve germination rate and shorten germination time.

2. Soaking seeds

Before sowing, select seeds with full particles and uniform size, soak the seeds in clean water for 3-4 hours, and the water volume is 2-3 times that of the seeds, or the water surface is 1- 2 cm above the seeds. The reason for this is because the germination of seeds is inseparable from water, waiting for the seeds to fully absorb water, reduce the water, dry the surface, and wait for germination.

3. Germination

lettuce seeds and most vegetables are not the same, in the low temperature environment is more conducive to germination, the seeds with a cloth bag, put it into the refrigerator refrigeration germination, it is recommended to control the temperature at 5-10 degrees, germination to take out the seeds every day with water rinse once, and then continue germination, this is to improve the germination of seeds moisture. Repeat this a few times, about 4-5 days later, the seeds will germinate, wait for two-thirds of the seeds and germinate, you can sow. If there is no refrigeration tool such as refrigerator in rural areas, seeds can be hung in wells, which can also achieve the purpose of low temperature germination.

The above is the lettuce seed germination method introduction, hope to help you, want to know more related knowledge, please pay attention to us.
