If you take advantage of the experience of experienced gardeners, losses when sowing seeds will be minimized.

For example, many summer residents have been carrying out pre-sowing seed preparation for several decades now using such a cheap product as succinic acid.

To increase the germination of seed material, it is worth preparing a solution.

To do this, you will need to dissolve 1 g of the preparation in 0.5 l of warm water, then soak the seeds of any crops in part of the resulting product for 12 hours.

After completing the procedure, there is no need to rinse the grains – just dry them slightly.

If the seeds are to be germinated, after soaking, place them between two cotton pads soaked in clean warm water.

Dilute the remaining solution in 1 liter of warm water and pour into a spray bottle.

In this form, succinic acid can be used to spray indoor plants. For example, orchids after such treatment will delight you with lush flowering in the near future.
