Pre-broadcast preparation

Zhu Dinghong sowing soil is suggested to be peat + perlite, the ratio is 1:1, for Zhu sowing and growth within half a year, very beneficial, if you want to use other soil, we should pay attention to air permeability and moisture retention. Usually the seeds received are relatively dry, if sowed directly, it will not absorb enough water and affect the germination rate. It is recommended to float for 2-3 days before moving on to the next step. Planting flowerpots should be arranged according to the amount of seeds. It is recommended that 30 seeds use pots of 20 to 25 centimeters in diameter, about 20 centimeters in depth, 80 percent of mud, and transparent food bags of 35 centimeters in diameter.

Sowing method

First, float the received seeds in a container for 2 to 3 days, with a water depth of about 3 cm. Load the basin with mixed soil, install it to 75% of the basin, spray moisture on standby (humidity above 70%). Then distribute the seeds evenly over the basin and do it with embroidered patience, with a difference of at least 1 cm between the seeds. Then put the dry mixed soil on top of the seed, about 1 cm thicker, and then spray it (use a sprayer, do not water, or the seed will float on the soil). After spraying, add a fresh-keeping bag seal (it doesn't matter if it's not breathable), and then place it in a semi-shaded place where the sun can't be exposed directly, but where there is light.
