How to sow evening primrose?

Evening primrose can be sown to cultivate seedlings, and the reproductive ability is relatively strong, the northern areas are mostly sown in spring, and some other places are also suitable for sowing and breeding in autumn. So, how to sow evening primrose? Today, the editor will tell you about the sowing method of this plant.

1. Matrix disinfection

Before sowing, we need to disinfect the culture substrate, and it is suggested that the selected soil should be put into a casserole to stir-fry, which can not only achieve the effect of sterilization, but also eliminate harmful substances such as insect eggs.

2. Soak the seeds in warm water

After dealing with the culture medium, we also need to soak the seeds. The seeds can usually be soaked in warm hot water for about 3-10 hours until the seeds expand.

3. Sowing process

Because this kind of flower seed is relatively small, it is generally difficult to squeeze it up and sow it directly by hand. We can use a toothpick to assist by dipping a piece of the toothpick with water, then gluing the seed with its wet part, and then sowing it on the surface of the matrix. Next, cover a layer of culture soil with a thickness of about 1 cm.

4. Soak the basin to replenish water

Watering is not recommended for seed watering, but in order to achieve the purpose of watering, we can do it by soaking in the basin. Put the seeded flowerpot into a certain depth of water, and then the water will slowly soak up through the flowerpot until the soil becomes moist.

5. Key points of management

If it is sowing in autumn, when the temperature drops suddenly, it is recommended to wrap the flowerpot with plastic film to achieve the purpose of heat preservation and moisturization. when the seeds sprout seedlings break the soil, in order to promote ventilation and ventilation, the plastic film should be released in time. And let it receive a certain amount of light in the morning and evening every day, so as to ensure that the seedlings can thrive.

When most of the seeds emerge, it should be time for the seedlings to be pulled out. At the same time, in order to ensure that the seedlings have enough air room for growth, some seedlings should be pulled out appropriately in the areas where the seedlings are too dense. When most of the seedlings spread out more than 3 leaves, they can be transplanted in the pot.
