There is a trick to sow hibiscus sunflower, it is simple and easy, let’s try it together!

one. Planting steps

1 The seeds of this plant have a very strong survival rate after they mature, and the inherent potential of its seeds to germinate is very huge.

2 Generally, this kind of plant can be planted in the spring of each year, and mature seeds should be used for sowing, because only mature plant seeds have a very high survival rate.

3 Generally, we can soak the collected seeds in cold water for 3 to 4 days, and the water must be changed every day during the soaking process to increase the germination rate of the seeds. We can wait until we can see the seeds break through the seed coat and sprout, then we can place them in a place with a temperature of 32 degrees to stimulate the germination.

4 Then we can prepare the seedbed for cultivating seedlings. Because this plant grows better in places with good drainage, the matrix of the seedbed we prepare is based on peat and vermiculite as the main raw materials, and a small amount of garden soil and river sand can be added to it. After preparation, use a rake to finely turn the soil in the seedbed, then apply enough base fertilizer on it at one time, and then use a rake to mix the fertilizer and soil evenly to avoid the situation where there is no fertilizer in some places and too much fertilizer in other places.

5Then you can sow the seeds, evenly spreading them on the soil.

6 After sowing, this kind of plant can be covered with a relatively thin layer of plastic film, which will be more beneficial for soil moisture retention and seed germination.

7 Generally, you can remove the plastic film after the first leaf of this plant grows out. Generally, you can separate the seedlings and plant them out after the second leaf grows out.

two. Things to note

In order to increase the germination rate of seeds, the seeds must first be soaked and then stimulated to sprout.
