Seeds should be selected before planting, and the seeds should be complete and the outer skin should not be damaged.The outer skin is relatively hard, it is difficult to grow buds, in order to germinate as soon as possible, the black outer skin needs to be ground off, which can help the seed core inside to germinate as soon as possible, do not grind off the germinating end.After removing the outer seed coat, put it in a dish with water to ensure that the water inside can submerge and cover the seeds, change the water in the morning and evening, keep the surrounding warm climate, and germinate for a period of time.
Lotus can be planted in a clay pot without drainage holes at the bottom to prevent water from leaking out.The substrate inside can be pond mud, rich in humus, which can meet the needs of growth, if conditions do not permit, it can also be mixed with humus soil, garden soil, sandy soil and so on.
The planting time should be around spring as far as possible. The lotus seeds have already germinated. Just transplant them into the soil of the container and add some water in an appropriate amount. The tender buds at the top of the seeds should not be submerged.
After planting, first put it in the scattered light place for maintenance, then gradually adapt to it and get more exposure to the sun. At the beginning, do not fertilize, and then gradually fertilize to supplement nutrients.
