With approach of new garden season there is question – how not to be mistaken when choosing seeds, future harvest depends on it. In any gardening shop large number of different types of seeds. What to choose?
Instruction
1. Each gardener respecting himself, has favourite grades of cultures which they grow up throughout many seasons and which were at the best as fruitful and capable to resist low temperatures and diseases. Selection does not stand still and on counters specialized shops new grades and hybrids more often appear. Sometimes, that some new grades bring on the productivity, but there are also grades which meet the best expectations. Here both productivity and weight, resistance to diseases and to low temperatures. Experiment, buying seeds of new grades. Only this way you will pick up the fruitful, tasty, most adapted seeds for your garden kitchen garden. Being going to visit gardening shop, see not sowed since last seasons of seeds. Very old seeds which are quickly losing viability should be thrown out. Drill on viability seeds with big effective life. Especially I advise to check seeds pumpkin which are stored, without losing viability, up to 6-7 years. For determination of viability of seeds: we take small saucer, we stack gauze or bandage in several additions on bottom of saucer, we fill seeds and well we humidify. After water absorption, residues of liquid should be merged. To cover from above with glass or cellophane. At prorashchivaniye maintain temperature not lower than 20 degrees. Try to air daily couched seeds. If sprouts about 30-40% of seeds, then it is safely possible to throw out, do not regret because it on bed will ascend even twice less. So, what seeds need to be bought? Being going to shop behind acquisition of planting stock, make the list of the necessary cultures, and choose even better and write out grades. Having come to gardening shop, we meet small difficulty again with choosing seeds. There are several ways of the processed seeds and ordinary what it is better?
2. The inlaid seeds – the seeds covered with the thinnest film which consists of medicine to which biological active agents are added. Seeds happen yellow, red, green colors (depending on the added medicine in the inlaid mix) and have real size.
3. Pellety seeds – one of methods of preseeding processing of seeds by obvolakivaniye their nutritious protective, spherical cover. Pelleting promotes more uniform seeding of small seeds, improves conditions of development of plants, thereby increasing productivity of culture by 20-25%. But viability of such seeds not really high, within admissible. Unfortunately, at long storage, these seeds, quickly lose viability. Therefore to be necessary to buy only fresh, pellety seeds. Buying, pay attention to marking of package (data on quality, date, guarantee period, date of processing) Storage of such seeds no more than 6-9 months.
4. Normal seeds – nothing processed. These seeds are much cheaper than processed. Effective life depends on high-quality opportunities. Before crops it is possible to hold number of the events directed to increase in resistance to low temperatures and increase in productivity (to temper, couch, process stimulators).
5. Getting bags of seeds, carefully check effective life. Effective life usually happens one year if bag double (inside still white bag of seeds), then term increases up to two years. You treat the agrotechnical councils specified on bags of seeds with care. Stop the choice of firm on known to you by last experiments or by councils of skilled gardeners.
