How experienced gardeners treat seeds before planting: a clever method that many don’t know about
Experienced gardeners know that seeds need to be processed before planting in order to have a positive effect on the future harvest.
First of all, the procedure is carried out to increase germination, as well as to get rid of possible pathogens.
Most often, potassium permanganate is used for this purpose. However, this requires special skill, reminds the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", landscape designer and scientist-agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh . If the solution is made too concentrated, then the planting material can be harmed.
What clever method of processing is known to experienced summer residents
Instead of "conjuring" over a solution of potassium permanganate, you can use a proven pharmacy remedy - hydrogen peroxide.
It can be safely used in its pure form, without diluting with ordinary water. It will not cause any harm to the planting material.
Place the seeds in a container with hydrogen peroxide for 30 minutes. After that, you can immediately begin the planting process.
