How to increase the germination of tomatoes

If you do everything correctly, the seedlings will sprout literally on the third day.

You will need: seeds, quality soil, a plastic tray, film or a cellophane bag, hydrogen peroxide and hot water.

We evenly distribute the seeds over the soil, moistened with a weak solution of hydrogen peroxide (a teaspoon of peroxide per liter of hot water), and sprinkle with dry soil (1 centimeter).
