Germination of seeds: 3 most popular methods - a godsend for summer residents

Germinating seeds is a task that should be approached with sense and deliberation.

There are several proven ways to do this faster and better.

Expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, scientist agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you how to grow seedlings from seeds.

Cotton pads

Take a container and two cotton pads. Place one on the bottom of the container, put the seeds on it, cover with the other and moisten.

Please note that there should be a lot of water, but the disks should not float in it. If there is too much moisture, drain it.

Roots appear on average in 2-3 days.

Paper napkins

With this method, the seeds can sprout on the second day. The principle is the same: the seeds are laid out between two layers of paper, which is thoroughly moistened with water.

Sponge

A regular dishwashing sponge will do for sprouting seeds. Make longitudinal cuts on it, into which the seeds are placed.

All that remains is to soak the sponge with water, and within three days roots will appear.
