Methods of accelerating germination of Pepper Seeds and matters needing attention

Pepper is an indispensable market in our life, and the market demand is so great that basically every household in rural areas will plant some chili seeds, so it is difficult for farmers to accelerate the germination of pepper seeds. The following editor will introduce the methods of accelerating germination of pepper seeds and matters needing attention. I hope I can help you to understand it together.

I. seed soaking

After selecting the seeds, soak the seeds. Soak the seeds at 40-55 degrees for 5-6 hours, then remove them to dry. Then soak it in the seed soaking agent for 7-8 hours, the seed soaking agent is composed of trace elements such as copper sulfate and zinc sulfate, in order to increase the yield of hot pepper and promote its precocious maturity. of course, trisodium phosphate, sodium hydroxide and other substances can also be added to disinfect the seeds. After soaking, it can be removed and washed for budding treatment.

Second, the method of accelerating germination.

There are two methods of accelerating germination, one is the common method of accelerating germination, which is repeatedly washed with clean water after seed soaking to remove the spicy taste, and then wrapped with cloth into the basin, and then covered with wet sand cloth. Control the ambient temperature of budding at 28-30 degrees so that it can sprout twice a day with warm water, usually 4-5 days. Second, variable temperature germination method, the most temperature pepper seed germination effect is greater, the appropriate temperature is between 25-35 degrees, but constant temperature will lead to irregular seed germination, so in many cases will adopt high and low temperature alternating germination. After wrapping the seeds in a wet cloth, control 28-30 degrees 16-18 hours a day, and control temperature 16-20 degrees 6-8 hours a day. In order to heat the seeds evenly, turn and scrub about twice a day, wait until most of the seeds sprout and put them in a 10-degree environment for low-temperature exercise.

Matters needing attention in sprouting

Pepper seed germination is very strict for oxygen requirements, to strengthen the permeability of gauze, to ensure that the oxygen content is more than 10%, otherwise it will not germinate. According to the different number of pepper seeds, it can be cultured in three different ways: incubator, germination chamber or germination bed.
