Carefully distribute the seeds over the surface of the paper, close the container. If it has no lid, wrap it in cling film.

We put the container in a warm place. The optimal temperature is 25-28 degrees.

We check the paper every day and, if necessary, moisten it with a peroxide solution.

The seeds will start to sprout in 5-7 days. When the shoots get stronger, we plant them in the ground.

An important nuance: you need to plant it together with the paper, cutting it into pieces.

You can first plant them in small cups to discard weak sprouts.
