How to sow corn seeds

1. Land preparation

Before sowing, the land needs to be prepared in advance. There should not be too many large pieces of soil in the land, and some base fertilizer should be applied to it so that the seeds will germinate easily after sowing. In addition, the time must be chosen well. It is generally carried out in spring from March to May. The specific sowing time can be changed at any time according to the temperature.

2. Purchase seeds

Seed selection is also a very important step. The quality of seeds will directly affect the germination rate and the growth of seedlings. The moisture and purity of the seeds you purchase must be good, and they must be full and uniform in size, so that they can germinate and grow better after sowing.

3. Sowing

In most cases, the corn seeds you buy do not need to be germinated and can be sown directly. When sowing, the depth should be shallow, about 3-5cm. If the soil is very loose, the deepest should not be sown below 8cm. If you sow too deep, there will be a lack of seedlings.

IV. Precautions

If conditions permit, you can also mix the seeds before sowing, that is, mix some pesticides or fungicides with the seeds. The purpose of doing this is to prevent diseases and pests in time and make the corn grow better.
