Time of purchase of seeds and landing of seedling comes. In shops the departments for gardeners dazzle with numerous bright packings. Each bag is similar to the work of art. It is difficult not to become puzzled before such show-window and not to begin to buy up everything. The main thing in the choice of seeds is information of bag on the back.
Remember several rules of acquisition of the necessary material.
So every year there is question: what and where to buy seeds? Let's try to answer. Do not take seeds if effective lives are printed in the typographical way. Most likely, packing has been made in advance, and terms do not correspond to written. Date of realization has to be printed during laying of seeds, the stamp is put in blue or black color.
You do not hurry to buy seeds in too bright packing. It is better to choose in simple white wrapper, the quality of seeds in it is not worse, and purchase will cost to you much cheaper. Producers overstate cost at the expense of colourful pictures.
Do not spend much. It is better to make the list of the necessary seeds in advance, to look at the remains of last year's, to think that else you would like to put. In advance it is not necessary to stock up, seeds can lose viability. If the seller offers new grades, do not take too much. Try couple of new types for experiment, take seeds from different producers, verify results and write down on the future.
It is a lot of summer residents and gardeners get the ready soil for seedling. It is necessary to pay attention that in it there is a lot of riding sour peat, and nutrients are not enough. Water easily passes through such soil because of what the soil cakes, and growth of seedling slows down. In order that moisture was late longer, add vermiculite to the earth. Ashes or dolomite powder will help to get rid of surplus of sour peat. Do not forget to disinfect the soil, bacteria can cause rotting of saplings. To the earth pour boiled water with several crystals of potassium permanganate, color has to turn out light pink. Wait so far the soil will cool down, now it is sterile and it needs useful bacteria. Medicine for good microflora is sold in shops. Do everything as it is told in the instruction and 5 days later soil will be ready.
There are many ways to wake seeds that they have sprouted quicker. These ways generally belong to own seeds, purchased have already undergone preseeding processing.
First of all seeds need etching, there is enough 20 minutes in pink solution of potassium permanganate. Semyon with firm cover, such as peas, haricot and others, it is necessary to kill in hot water. It is also possible to rub slightly surface small abrasive paper. Seeds of the large and average sizes need water not higher than 40 degrees. You look behind that water only slightly hid them, they should not swim. Constantly change water, at emergence of sprouts merge, and dry seeds. To fennel and celery soaking will not help to wake up. The essential oils which are contained in them create protective film and do not allow to sprout. Put them in sack made of cloth, suspend to the crane and wash with flowing water.
Some people think that the earlier there was landing, the harvesting will begin quicker. But far from it. In the winter plants lack light and if you have no special illumination, then it is necessary to be engaged in crops from the middle of March. Early disembarkation is also threatened by dry air of the room, the soil will demand constant moistening. Moisture will add to growth to your saplings, but they will grow weak.
Most often tomatoes are inclined to development. It is good that they have one great feature — on stalk of plant there are hardly noticeable hillocks. These are germs of roots, it is worth putting them more deeply, building will begin. Lanky and fragile seedling can be replaced in plastic bottle, having dug root far away. After change water the soil with fitosporiny, it will calm the disturbed backs.
Do not add to yourself excess work. If you do not hurry, your saplings will be healthy and strong that will lead to rich harvest.
