How to plant lotus seeds

Lotus seed planting time

Lotus seeds are generally planted in the spring of each year, approximately around March to May. In the southern region of my country, the climate is relatively warm, so they can be planted in March, while in the northern region, they need to wait until April to be planted. At this time, the climate is relatively mild, which can increase the survival rate of seeds.

Lotus seed planting method

1. Seed treatment: When planting lotus seeds, you need to use stones to grind the concave end of the seeds, which is more conducive to germination. Then you can soak them in water. During this period, you need to change the water frequently to keep the water clean. They will germinate in about a week.

2. Planting method: Lotus seeds need to use fertile, unpolluted pond mud as the substrate. The germinated seeds can be buried in the soil. It should be noted that the soil should be made into a paste before planting, and the soil should be kept moist after planting.

3. Sowing and maintenance: After planting, lotus seeds need a good maintenance environment, appropriate sunlight exposure, and regular water changes to avoid water pollution that affects growth and development.

Lotus daily management matters needing attention

When caring for the lotus, you need to pay attention to the fact that during the growth period, it needs sufficient sunlight so that it can grow well. It also needs to be fertilized regularly. You can use thin fertilizers and avoid using too concentrated fertilizers, otherwise it will affect its root growth.
