HOW TO GERMINATE CHERRY SEEDS

Planting method



Seedlings can be grown in nutritional pots in paper or plastic cups. The composition of the substrate may be as follows: 3 parts peat, 1 part humus, and 0.25 parts of mullein; you can take: 3 parts compost, 1 part loam, with 0.25 part of mullein. 1 kg of the first mixture add 10-20 g of superphosphate and 1-2 g of hydrated lime. When using the mixture of the second composition, add 4-5 g of superphosphate and 300-500 mg of hydrated lime. Peat and compost should be sifted through a sieve. Therefore it is better to use a weathered friable peat litter and greenhouse humus.
Naklyunulsya (up to 2 cm) seeds are put in the hole of the pots from the spine down and immediately covered with earth. Do it carefully to cover the root and cotyledons and completely fill the cavity of the pots. Also thoroughly fill the voids between the pots and cover them with a layer of sand or mixture of sand and soil thickness of 1 cm then spend watering, making sure the seeds from the pots not washed out. Formed after watering the space between the pots filled with the same mixture and then subjected to the sawdust mulching with a layer of 1 cm. Sawdust not only retain moisture, but also protect the seedlings from rotting in the root of the neck.
35-40 days latter, when the seedlings will develop 7-8 leaves, the pots are planted in the soil, and the following year is used for budding.
