Choose the soil with good ventilation and drainage, and mix perlite, peat soil and hematite soil according to the proportion of 1:3:1, pave a layer of small stones below, water with immersion basin method, and sprinkle the seeds on the soil without covering the soil. Then put a layer of fresh-keeping film, use toothpick to pierce some holes for ventilation. Put it in a place with good light and wait for germination.

Seeding method

1. First, prepare the substrate and flowerpot for sowing. If the soil is a little finer, the drainage and air permeability is better, and the water retention capacity is also better. Generally, 1 part of perlite, 3 parts of peat soil and 1 part of hematite soil can be mixed with it, or they can also be matched according to their own standards.

2. After selecting the container, you can first lay a thin layer of small stones under it, so that the plant can better moisturize and permeate the water. Or you can choose some 6 to 6 mm ceramsite or bark instead. After the container is almost full, level it up a little and soak the basin until it is full.

3. We can also spread a thin layer of hematite or vermiculite on the top of the soil to keep the water and increase the air permeability. And if the two kinds of soil dry, the color will be different, it is easy to see. It should also be noted that if the soil is not paved, the perlite that floats on the surface of the soil after soaking must be picked up, that is, some small stones with white color.

4. It is also important to soak the basin until it is half an hour after the water in the soil is leached, so as to ensure that the soil can fully absorb the water. Wait until the emergence of this method to continue to supply water in the soil, but only 2 to 5 minutes.

5. Because the seed is relatively small, we can put the seed on a piece of white paper first, and then dip the toothpick in the water to put the seed in the flowerpot. Remember that after putting it, it must not be covered with soil to ensure that the seed is on the surface of the soil. Then put on a layer of plastic wrap, use toothpick to pierce some holes to increase air permeability.

Precautions

After all the above steps are completed, you can put it in a place with good light and wait for germination quietly. Be careful not to be exposed to direct sunlight. When it comes out, you can put it in a place with good sunlight
