March is the time when summer residents begin to prepare more actively for the season. During this period, many are engaged in planting seeds for seedlings.
In this case, it is customary to plant seeds after processing.
Gardeners say that the procedure can be carried out using an inexpensive product – hydrogen peroxide.
This drugstore product is suitable for soaking any seeds.
This is the opinion of experienced gardeners.
They are sure that peroxide disinfects the seed material. It turns out that pathogenic microflora is destroyed during soaking.
In addition, this procedure has a positive effect on seed germination, which means that the yield also increases.
But what do scientists say?
In short, peroxide is not able to rid seeds of fungi and bacteria.
Also, the drug has virtually no stimulating effect on the seed material.
This means that it is better to choose other means for processing.
