Last Updated: 2024/12/22, If the amount of seed used is large, sand storage treatment is often used. The method is to treat it about 2 months before sowing. First soak the licorice seeds in 60 ℃ warm water for 4 hours, stir them many times, fish them out and drain them, mix them with 5 times as much fine sand as the seeds, and the humidity of the river sand is that it can be seen by hand without dripping. Then put the well-mixed seeds into a wooden box, surrounded by wet sand of unmixed seeds, and then covered with 3-5cm thick wet fine river sand. Finally, put the seed box into the prepared cellar.

Sand storage cellar should be chosen in high dry, leeward, shady place, the cellar can not accumulate water. The humidity should be checked frequently during storage. if it is too dry, the seed box can be taken out and mixed well with water, so that it can be re-stored when the humidity reaches an appropriate level. If the moisture is too large, it can be solved by drying. By using this method, the seeds can be sowed in 2 months, which is suitable for autumn sowing.
