What about the dormancy of tomato seeds? Please guide seed dormancy is the phenomenon that viable seeds cannot germinate under suitable environmental conditions due to internal reasons. Effectively breaking dormancy is a very important problem in production, which has a direct impact on Miaoqi and Miaozhuang. We summarized several methods to break the dormancy of tomato seeds, as follows. 1. Tomato seed shell contains germination inhibitor, soak the seed in water before sowing, rinse repeatedly, the running water is better, let the inhibitor permeate, can improve the germination rate. 2. After 12 hours of aeration and water absorption, the new seeds harvested in the same year were dried to water content, that is, pre-soaking could effectively break the shallow dormancy of tomato seeds, shorten the germination time, improve the germination consistency and increase the length of seedling main root. 3. Gibberellin added to seedling substrate can also break the shallow dormancy of seeds. Pre-soaking and using gibberellin had no obvious effect on the viability of tomato seeds.
