Germination method of pumpkin seeds

Abstract

The invention discloses a germination method of pumpkin seeds, and relates to the technical field of germination of pumpkin. According to the technical scheme, the germination method comprises the following steps: an appropriate amount of pumpkin seeds are placed in a container containing 0.2% of KC1 and 150 mg / L of gibberellic acid (GA) treatment liquid; the pumpkin seeds are soaked for 8 hours at 28 DEG C and then are taken out; the pumpkin seeds are wrapped with a wet towel or gauze and then are placed into a seed germination box for 5-7 days at 28 DEG C. The germination method can significantly improve the germination rate, germination potential and seedling living quality of the pumpkin seeds.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pumpkin germination, in particular to a method for germination of pumpkin seeds. Background technique [0002] At present, there are relatively few domestic researches on the germination technology of pumpkin seeds, and the germination technology of pumpkin 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 e...

[0002] At present, there are relatively few domestic researches on the germination technology of pumpkin seeds, and the germination technology of pumpkin 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

Pumpkin is a popular fruit that plays an important role in production, but pumpkin 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
