Cryptomeria JAPONICA

Sowing and germination

** For germination, seeds need preliminary cold stratification for 2-3 months (for example, in the refrigerator). The seeds are planted in a box, sprinkled with soil, the surface is moistened and covered with glass. The planted seeds are watered regularly. The ambient temperature in the greenhouse is kept slightly elevated. Seeds germinate slowly, within 1-1.5 months at a soil temperature of +25-28°C. If the soil temperature is lower, they will germinate even more slowly. Seedlings grow very slowly, as is the case with all coniferous plants.
