Then the following article will continue to introduce this issue.

1. Temperature

Like warmth, generally seeds begin to germinate above 18 degrees, and then the temperature can grow, but the most suitable temperature for plant growth is between 18 and 22 degrees, and growth is inhibited above 30 degrees.
