How to plant cucumber seeds and germinate in a few days

Cucumber, this is a kind of vegetable, is super delicious, many people like to eat, so how to grow this cucumber seed? Sprouting in a few days:

How to plant cucumber seeds:

The main results are as follows: 1. The sowing time of cucumber seeds on the balcony is generally carried out in early spring from January to March, and of course, it can also be sowed in summer and autumn from June to August. If sowing in spring, soaking seeds to promote germination is used to raise seedlings or plastic film covering direct seeding, while sowing seeds in summer and autumn can choose two methods: seed soaking direct seeding or dry seed direct seeding. The method of dry seed direct seeding can generally emerge seedlings in 3-4 days, and the time of seed soaking and budding is faster. When the cucumber sprouts 1-2 true leaves, it can be transplanted and planted.

2. Choose good containers for growing cucumbers, such as flowerpots, wooden pots, professional cultivation boxes, styrofoam boxes, etc., the most important thing is to drain and breathe, and the depth of the plough layer is about 40 cm. If you cultivate soil, it is best to choose fertile, loose, well-drained soil, which is more conducive to its growth.

3. After selecting the container, the most important thing is to soak the seeds before planting. Soak the seeds in warm water of 55 ℃ for 20 minutes to keep them at a constant temperature, and keep stirring continuously during the soaking process, waiting for the water temperature to drop to room temperature, and then soaking for 6-8 hours. After that, the seeds were fished out, wrapped in wet gauze and germinated under the condition of 25-28 ℃. When half of the seeds were gradually exposed, they could be sown.

4. Soak the soaked seeds evenly on top of the fine culture soil, and then cover it with a layer of thin soil about 1 cm thick. After sowing, it should be irrigated and planted once to keep heat and moisture, so as to slow down the seedlings. Spring cucumber seedling stage to control moisture, growing period to always keep the soil moist, flowering stage to control water, the result period of water demand, generally two to three days need to be watered once.

5. Applying enough basal fertilizer can ensure the better growth of cucumber. Sufficient base fertilizer is needed in planting, mainly rotten organic fertilizer, and fertilization should be combined with watering in the fruit period, and compound fertilizer can be applied every 5-7 days. Cucumber root is weak in absorbency and sensitive to high concentration fertilizer. It is appropriate to apply thin fertilizer frequently, once every 6-8 days, and to cultivate soil and fertilizer after the first batch of melons are harvested. Attention should be paid to phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to avoid steep growth and early senescence.

6. When cucumber tendrils appear, a herringbone should be built to draw the vine. Insert a bamboo pole on the outside of the seedling, corresponding to each seedling. The two rows at the top of the bamboo pole are tied together. When the melon vine can not grow upright, you should tie the vine in time, and then tie it every 3-4 leaves. The binding rope is in the shape of "8" with the pole and vine, which can prevent the vine from rubbing or slipping. The binding vine should not be too tight, so it is appropriate to insert it into the index finger. Each binding vine to make the top of the melon vine fixed at the same height, easy to manage, and preferably in the afternoon, not easy to break the vine and leaves.

7. Cucumbers can be harvested about 10 days after the first serving, only about 45 days from sowing to planting, about 30 days from planting to root melon, and the harvest time is 1-2 months. However, in the process of planting cucumber, we should pay attention to keep the growth temperature of 20-28 ℃, if it is more than 30 ℃, it will grow badly, and if it is less than 10 ℃, it will stop growing, so we must control the temperature. The sunshade net should be covered before emergence in the hot summer.

8. When the main vine of cucumber climbs to the top of the rack, it is necessary to pick the heart in time, mostly when there are 30 or 35 leaves, picking the heart can promote the growth of melon. The heart-picking should be determined according to the characteristics of the variety. Most of the varieties that are easy to pick the heart are picked one month before pulling the seedlings, but the yield is low if the heart is picked too early, and the role of the melon can not be brought into full play if the heart is picked too late. Picking hearts, pinching tendrils and beating old leaves are all essential. only by doing a good job can we ensure the normal growth, flowering and fruit of cucumbers, and also control diseases and insect pests.

Cucumber seeds germinate in a few days:

The seeds were sown at about 25 ℃, unearthed in 5-7 days, cotyledons unfolded in 7-8 days, true leaves unfolded in 12-14 days, and flowered in about 60 days.

In addition, if you soak the seeds in 52 ℃ of warm water for 10 hours and then germinate, they can germinate in 3 days and sow immediately, which can save the seeds.

This is the end of the introduction on the planting method of cucumber seeds, and the time of germination is related to the temperature.

What are the methods of rapid germination of cucumber seeds?

[FAQ] what are the methods of rapid germination of cucumber seeds?

[expert answer] there are several methods for rapid germination of cucumber seeds:

1. Seed soaking method in warm soup: the dry seeds were continuously stirred in 55 ℃ ~ 60 ℃ warm water and treated for about 10 minutes. After the water temperature dropped to 28 ℃, the seeds were soaked for 4 hours, and the seeds were washed and germinated.

2. Chemical disinfection: soak the seeds with 0.1% carbendazim hydrochloric acid for 1 hour, rinse the seeds with clean water, and then soak the seeds with clear water for 4 hours.

3. Seed film treatment method: some cucumber seeds have been treated by seed production units with seed film containing fungicides and various trace elements, and seed film treatment has a good germicidal effect. The treated seeds can be soaked directly to accelerate germination, or they can also be directly seeded.

After disinfection, the seeds were removed and washed, washed, dried, wrapped with cloth and placed under 27: 30 ℃ to promote germination. In the process of accelerating germination, the seeds should be turned frequently so that the seeds began to sprout evenly after about 24 hours. When the seeds were exposed to the root tip, the temperature could be reduced appropriately, maintained at 22: 26 ℃, and could be finished in about two days. If the seeds cannot be sown on a cloudy day after germination, the seeds can be wrapped with a wet towel and placed in a cool place for about 10 ℃ to inhibit the growth of buds. This practice is called "squatting sprouts".

[conclusion] Cucumber seeds usually germinate in about a week in spring. If you want to make it germinate faster, you can soak the seeds and disinfect them. The first Agricultural Classic editor above has already introduced it for you. I hope it will be helpful to you.

[editor's comments] seed sprouting is the preparation work for many crops before planting, which can take less time to emerge faster, and sometimes it is very helpful to rob farmers. The germination of different crop seeds is different, and the methods and techniques are also different. Cucumber seeds can be accelerated by the above methods.
