Sowing and germination

Seeds need cold stratification for 2-3 months at a temperature of 4-5° C. At home, the seeds are placed in the refrigerator. In our store, seeds are stored in a cold environment; when purchasing, check the time of cold stratification. Before planting, the seeds are carefully scarified and soaked in warm water with the addition of stimulants for 24 hours, then sown in a mixture of peat and sand to a depth of 1-1.5 cm, moistened with a spray bottle, covered with film and germinated in the light at a temperature of 22-26°C. The seedlings need ventilation. It is necessary to avoid waterlogging and drying out of crops. It may take 2 to 6 weeks for seedlings to germinate.
