Multicellular Seed Sowing Season
Answering netizens' questions about the introduction of flower propagation, multicellular seed sowing season, the following is a detailed introduction for you
Multicellular seed sowing has increasingly been favored by flower enthusiasts. Along with the popularity, there are also some doubts, such as the sowing season of multicellular seeds. This article is a summary of some experiences of flower enthusiasts in sowing multicellular seeds, including the sowing season, and also includes several years of experience summary, which is worth reading for新手 flower enthusiasts.
Firstly, let's talk about the sowing time, taking Guangdong as an example, for reference only. In spring and winter seasons, it's suitable to sow Sedum and Portulaca in my place. (The temperature is between 15-25 degrees, roughly, I haven't checked it accurately, just by FEEL) In summer, of course, it's my favorite cacti, and you can also sow plants like Agave, which are summer-type plants. The timing of sowing must be grasped, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
Edit Note: Pay attention to the germination temperature, Sedum and Portulaca are 15-25 degrees, sow in spring or autumn, rooms with heating in the north can sow in winter, cacti need a temperature of over 30 degrees and must be sown in summer. Do not place in direct sunlight before germination, it must be placed in a very bright scattered light area, that is to say, after sowing, it must be placed in a bright place but not exposed to direct sunlight.
Below are some tips from the author:
One, attitude! I think it's one of the most important secrets. Many people who sow seeds (including myself), always want to buy a hundred seeds and germinate a hundred seeds. This kind of attitude, I think everyone has. But it's really a bit unrealistic. We should be satisfied with a germination rate of three to four out of ten. This way, it's more enjoyable. After all, the fun of growing flowers is for pleasure, don't make yourself unhappy.
Two, seeds! The germination rate of seeds is a troublesome issue. The germination rate of seeds is related to the freshness and maturity of the seeds. Some seeds have a post-maturation period (I've heard of this, it seems to be the case). When sowing a kind of seed, you need to know more about the plant's vermiculite. The cleanliness of the seeds is also very important. Some seed sellers do not clean and dry the seeds, which can easily cause mold during sowing. This would be unfortunate, and even the medium could be ruined. It's possible to lose the entire army, so be careful. Therefore, I suggest soaking and washing the seeds before sowing to remove any flesh.
Three, the sowing medium. Actually, this is very simple, it should be breathable and water-retaining. (It seems a bit contradictory, but it's not) The sowing medium is divided into two layers (① Bottom layer: place large particles with good drainage + peat ② Top layer: small vermiculite + rice husk carbon + peat). Vermiculite is a good thing, very beneficial for seedlings to take root. It has been proven by practice!
Five, keeping it humid! It's very necessary to keep it humid during the seedling stage, which can increase temperature and humidity. These two conditions are the key to seed germination, very useful. I usually use a sealed bag, seal it up, and place it on the windowsill to let it grow. Usually, the effect is very obvious. Fresh seeds can usually germinate within a week.
