Matters needing attention for accelerating germination of vegetable seeds

When vegetables are cultivated in early spring, because the temperature is low, it is extremely disadvantageous for vegetable seeds to sprout, so it is necessary to use seed soaking techniques to ensure that vegetable seeds can emerge normally. However, we should also pay attention to a few problems when sprouting, otherwise it is not conducive to seed emergence. Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. The soaking time should be appropriate.

Seed soaking is the first step of accelerating germination. At this time, it is generally necessary to soak the seed in warm water to awaken the seed dormancy and make the germ germinate, but pay attention to the soaking time. If the soaking time is too long, the seed absorbs too much water, on the contrary, it will affect the germination rate of vegetable seeds. The specific soaking time should be determined according to the characteristics of different vegetable seeds, some seeds have a thin shell, so the soaking time is shorter, while some seeds have thicker shells, poor water absorption and longer natural soaking time.

2. Pay attention to the budding temperature

In the budding period to master a little better temperature, esophagitis and ventilation conditions, spring vegetable budding temperature of 25-30 degrees injection or so, budding initial temperature can be slightly lower, so as not to consume too much nutrients. After individual seeds see the bud, it is necessary to raise the temperature immediately to promote rapid budding, and to prevent overgrowth after the seeds generally sprout, so as to make the seeds sprout quickly and the buds sturdy.

3. Pay attention to flipping

During the germination period, we should pay attention to turning the seeds frequently, and wash the seeds with warm water 1-2 times a day. After each washing, the seeds should be dried, and then continue to germinate, so as to avoid seed decay caused by too much water. When the temperature is suitable, cucumber can sprout in 36 hours, eggplant and pepper in 5-6 days, and tomato in 2-3 days. When there are about 80% inter-seed buds, you can stop sprouting and prepare to sow.

4. Pay attention to the length of budding

Attention should be paid to the degree of budding when accelerating budding. It is best to expose white to the length of the bud not more than 3 cm, and the longest is not more than 5 cm. If the bud is too long, it will consume too much nutrients of the seeds, resulting in failure of seedling emergence, resulting in rotten seeds and dead seedlings.
