Germination method for water melon seeds

Abstract

The invention discloses a germination method for water melon seeds, and relates to the technical field of water melon germination. According to the technical scheme, the germination method comprises the following steps: firstly, putting a proper number of water melon seeds into a container containing 0.2% KCl and 150mg/L of gibberellins (GA) conditioning fluid; soaking the seeds at 28 DEG C for 8 hours, and then taking out the seeds; and wrapping with a wet towel or a gauze, and than putting into a seed germination tank of 28 DEG C for 5-7 days. According to the germination method, the germination rate, the germination potential and the bud seedling living quality of the water melon seeds can be obviously improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of watermelon germination, in particular to a method for germination of watermelon seeds. Background technique [0002] At present, there is relatively little research on watermelon seed germination technology in China, and the industry generally adopts watermelon seed germination technology. times, immerse the seeds in warm water and keep stirring, stop stirring when the water temperature drops to 30°C, and soak for 8 to 12 hours to make the seeds absorb enough water, then drain the water, drain the water, wrap it with gauze, and wrap it outside again The soaked sacks or towels are placed in a pot for germination. This method is called soaking seeds in warm soup. This is the most commonly used germination method. This method is simple and convenient, but there are also many problems: the seeds emerge slowly and the buds are weak. Weak, irregular seedling emergence, serious phenomenon of large and small...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0002] At present, there are relatively few researches on the germination technology of watermelon seeds in China, and the germination technology of watermelon seeds is generally adopted in the industry. The main method is: put warm water at 50~55℃ in a clean container, and the water volume is 5% of the seed volume. double, soak the seeds in warm water and stir continuously, stop stirring when the water temperature drops to 30°C, and then soak for 8-12 hours to make the seeds absorb enough water, then drain the water, wrap it with gauze, and then wrap the outside Put soaked sacks or towels in pots for germination. This method is called soaking seeds in warm soup. This is the most commonly used method for germination at present. This method is simple and convenient, but there are many problems: slow seed emergence, bud vigor Weak, irregular emergence, serious phenomenon of large and small seedlings, if the seeds are dormant, the emergence speed will be slower, and the germination rate is low

Watermelon is a popular fruit and plays an important role in production, but watermelon seeds germinate slowly and irregularly, and are prone to natural aging during storage, resulting in reduced vitality. Therefore, how to speed up seed germination and promote seed emergence is very important
