After soil preparation, select superior seeds, and soak the seeds in 45 degrees warm water for about a day, soak them out and wrap them with gauze, and open the soaked seeds. Then prepare a budding shed, put sterilized sawdust in the basin and put a layer of isolation cloth on it. Put the seeds evenly in a basin and cover the seeds with dry towels and quilts for heat preservation and germination.
