Some seeds take really long to germinate...
Especially when you want to have plants quickly.
Fortunately, there is a simple trick that all gardeners use to germinate seeds much faster.
The trick is to rub the seeds with sandpaper and soak them in apple cider vinegar . Watch:
- seeds
- 2 sheets of fine grit sandpaper
- 100 ml cider vinegar
- 500 ml hot water
- container
1. Rub your seeds between the sheets of sandpaper.
2. In the container, mix the water and cider vinegar.
3. Soak the seeds in vinegar water overnight.
4. The next day, rinse the seeds.
5. And plant them in the ground as usual.
And There you go ! Thanks to this trick, your seeds will germinate much faster :-)
Easy, fast and efficient, right?
It works for all large seeds like squash, pumpkin, pumpkin, gourd.
But also for the seeds of woody plants with a fairly hard shell such as parsley, rosemary, sage, thyme, peony, passionflower, moonflower or peace lily.
For small seeds, the single soaking phase is enough to soften them.
The sandpaper wears down the seed coat very slightly, making it easier for the germ to exit.
Soaking in vinegar water further softens the seed coat.
Thus, with these 2 tricks, the germ does not need to force to come out of its shell.
As a result, the seeds germinate more quickly and naturally.
