Blueberry seeds are very easy to get. You can first go to the supermarket to buy fresh blueberries, and cut them with a knife from the middle. Look at the center of the fruit. There are some particles growing around the center. These are blueberry seeds.
Blueberry seeds are very small, so we need to use toothpicks to pull them out. After that, put the seeds in shallow water and wash them to remove the residual pulp.
After that, the seeds are soaked with gibberellin, which can be used for sowing after breaking its dormancy.
Blueberry seeds are not suitable for sowing in general soil, it is best to plant them on fresh and clean water moss.
After transplanting, it is necessary to select a substrate with pH between 4.0 and 5.5, and ensure that it contains a certain amount of rotten leaves.
Before sowing, prepare a comfortable container for blueberries. Choose a box about 8cm deep, and put fresh and moist water moss in it.
After the seeds are evenly sprinkled on the water moss, at this time, we should pay attention to a little more, first, because its germination rate is not high, second, because it will be transplanted later.
Put a layer of plastic wrap or newspaper on the box to keep the humidity inside. Be careful to make holes in the plastic wrap or newspaper. This is to facilitate seed respiration and help it germinate.
Seed germination takes about a month, during which it should be placed in the environment of 16 ℃ ~ 21 ℃, and timely watering to keep the water moss moist.
When the young plant grows to 5 ~ 8cm and leaves a few true leaves, it can be removed from the water moss and planted to the selected culture medium.
First of all, we should prepare a flower pot with a diameter of about 30cm.
Wet the substrate in a soaking basin.
Then use a shovel to dig a small pit on it, about 5 to 10.
Then take the young plants out of the water moss container and transplant them into the pit. Be careful not to damage the roots of young plants, that is to say, do not expose their roots to the air.
After placing, bury and compact the plant with extra substrate to make the root of the plant close to the medium.
Finally, some water is poured to give young plants a better development environment.
Wait until the plant grows up, can change basin transplanting again according to specific situation..
