Why can't cooked flower seeds germinate?

1. Reasons for failure to germinate

After the water is boiled, the temperature can reach 100 degrees. If the seeds are boiled in hot water, the biological cells inside will be scalded to death and destroyed. In layman's terms, they are dead and cannot germinate again, so they have no vitality.

2. Germination Method

1. Seed drying: Before germination, in order to increase the survival rate, you can first dry the seeds. Choose the time 2 to 3 days in advance, on a sunny day with good sunlight, and spread the seeds outside to dry. Be sure to spread them thinly and turn them over frequently during the process so that they can be dried more evenly.

2. Seed selection: remove those with poor growth and development, leaving the better quality seeds, which look fuller and more substantial.

3. Soak the seeds: Soak the selected seeds in warm water at 50 to 55 degrees for about 10 to 15 minutes, then soak them in clean water for 2 to 3 days, changing the water every 4 to 5 hours.

4. Germination: Find a sealed container, soak a paper towel and spread it flat on the bottom, then spread the seeds evenly on the paper towel, cover it with a lid and place it in a cool place. It will germinate after a few days.
