Sowing method of Begonia sinensis

1. Select a container

For the four seasons crabapple, we should choose a flowerpot that is breathable and permeable, and slightly shallower. After the selection, it has to be cleaned and sterilized before it can be used. In addition, the drainage hole at the bottom of the container is covered with tiles before sowing, so that we can drain freely when we water it.

2. Select the matrix

The principle of choosing this is relatively fixed, which is generally loose and contains a lot of nutrition. We can mix rotten leaf soil with garden soil. However, after the selection of the substrate is not immediately available for use, we have to put it in the sun to expose to disinfection, which is conducive to seed germination. In addition, we should also use sieves and other items to roughly divide them into thick and thin.

3. Time selection

In general, the time to sow seeds is from April to May.

4. Formal sowing

First of all, put the thicker matrix in the lower half of the container and the thinner one on the top. Generally speaking, the soil should not be too full, and the soil should be about two centimeters away from the mouth of the basin. The seeds are then mixed with a finer substrate and sprinkled on the surface of the basin soil without further soil mulching. Next, keep the soil moist, moisturizing it with thin glass or plastic film. Then, control the temperature at 15 to 22 degrees. Wait about a week before the seeds can sprout.
