The latest course on seed treatment techniques of Schisandra chinensis

Schisandra chinensis is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine with a very long history in China, which is widely distributed in all parts of our country. Because of the gradual decrease of wild quantity, the planting area of Schisandra chinensis is expanding constantly. When planting Schisandra chinensis, we first need to do a good job in the treatment of seeds to improve the germination rate of seeds. So the editor brings you the seed treatment technology of Schisandra chinensis today. Let's have a look!

1. Seed selection

The first thing we need to do well is to choose the seeds. The quality of Schisandra chinensis seeds is closely related to the germination rate and yield, so we must pay more attention to it. After the fruit of Schisandra chinensis is ripe every year, we should choose the fruit with strong growth, no wound, full and juicy fruit as the seed. Ensure that the size of the ear is the same, and after the fruit is harvested, you should pay attention to keeping it in a dry environment. When drying, do not use fire roasting, pan frying and other methods to avoid seed water evaporation, resulting in the loss of germination power.

2. Treatment method

Outdoor treatment

Before the soil is frozen, the fruits that need to be taken are soaked in clean water so that the pulp can fully absorb water and it is easy to take out the seeds. When taking seeds, it should be noted that there are more empty seeds of Schisandra chinensis seeds, so pick out these empty seeds. For normal seeds, after being taken out, they should be soaked in water for about a week to make the seeds absorb water. In the process of soaking, the water should be changed every two days. After soaking the seeds, the seeds are fished out and mixed with the right amount of wet sand. Then dig out a pit about 50 centimeters deep outside, put it together, and then cover the soil with about 12 centimeters of soil, cover with the right amount of straw to avoid excessive temperature. Generally, the seeds crack around May every year, and the seeds can be sown at the right time.

Indoor treatment

The seed selection of indoor treatment is similar to that of outdoor seed. Be sure to make sure the seeds are full and germinate, and then use the same method to take out the seeds, that is, soak the fruit in water, and then rub the seeds out. However, the time for seed collection is generally around February every year, and the seed collection should be carried out indoors. After mixing with wet sand, do not put it into the outdoor pit, use containers such as wooden boxes for sand storage treatment. When using wooden box sand storage, the temperature should be controlled at about 10 degrees. Generally, in the spring of the following year, the seeds can be cracked and then sown.

The above is a brief introduction of Schisandra chinensis seed treatment technology. The seed treatment of Schisandra chinensis before sowing is very important. Attention must be paid to the work of accelerating germination and disinfection to improve the germination rate of Schisandra chinensis seeds. That's all for today's introduction.
