Our guide for seed germination is only a suggestion between many other forms in the market. It worked for us and so we are passing it on to you, but some knowledge about seed germination is necessary for seed germination, even the easiest.
Most seeds need moisture to germinate, even plants of desert origin need their seed substrate to remain moist until germination.
Most of seeds need oxygen to germ, when buried too long in their growth, or if the growth is too wet, the seeds will not find the oxygen required.
Some seeds need light to germ, must be seed superficially, lightly covered on the soil, other should not receive light, shall be seeded little or no light.
The golden rule is to cover the seeds equal to your own size.
Many seeds germ better at a certain temperature, some will germ in a relatively broad range, and others still need floating temperatures.
Almost all seeds are waiting in a state sleep for some external stimulation to break their sleep, some need only an environment with sufficiently high moisture, others need vernalization and / or scarification.
I hope our guide to germination can be useful to you.
1) Substrate: the substrate must be of good quality and suitable for seed germination. The same should be light and porous, like the cake batter. If it is compacted the seeds will not germinate.
2) Moisture: No seed germinates if it does not have adequate moisture. The substrate should remain moist throughout the process. If soaked, the seeds will rot, it should be just damp.
3) Heat: Most seeds require a suitable temperature range for their germination. When not informed, this temperature usually fluctuates around 24 / 25ºC.
4) Some species require dormancy breaking treatment. Because?
a) Because we are dealing with rare and exotic species. They are often species that inhabit other continents.
b) Because the climate in which they live can, and generally, differs from ours.
c) Because in order to introduce a new species, we need to know and understand its original habitat; and so we may, perhaps, introduce it into our environment, since we know that many have already been introduced in this way.
d) And how will we know the best way to introduce them? Always trying to mimic its original habitat. Always search. Information is the foundation for the success of any endeavor.
