1. Time selection: Lotus is planted and viewed at home. Generally, the method of seed sowing is adopted. It can be sown from April to August every year. During this period, the germination rate is the highest, and it is also very good for the growth in the later period.The rest of the time is OK, but the survival rate will be low.
2. Selection of seeds: Try to select seeds with full grains, which contain enough nutrients and have a higher survival rate after planting.
3. Seed treatment: Because the shell of the lotus seed is very hard, it must be treated before sowing. The shell needs to be cut open, but do not hurt the inside.After cutting, soak in warm water to germinate, change water every morning and evening, keep the surrounding temperature at about 20-25 degrees Celsius, and grow buds after about 7 days.
4. Sowing: After the tender buds grow steadily, they can be sown in the soil, and a proper amount of water is added to make the tender buds stretch out of the water surface.
Lotus is not cold-resistant. If the temperature is too low in winter, it will also endanger the growth of lotus. Therefore, according to the local climate conditions, reasonable measures should be taken to keep warm to promote the safe overwintering of lotus.But now a more cold-resistant lotus has been cultivated, if this kind of lotus can be planted in the north at ease.
