Embodiment 1

[0020] 1. Wash the watermelon seeds, sterilize them in warm water at 45°C for 10 minutes, and then dry them.

[0021] 2. Put the dried watermelon seeds in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin to soak for 5 hours, take out and wash; wherein, the concentration of potassium nitrate in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin is 0.1wt%. The concentration of element was 0.01 wt%.

[0022] 3. Soak the watermelon seeds after soaking and washing in water for 1 hour, then take them out and plant them in the substrate, and germinate them at a temperature of 25°C and a humidity of 90-95%, wherein the substrate is plant ash, vermiculite and perlite in volume ratio 2:0.6:0.4.

Embodiment 2

[0024] 1. Wash the watermelon seeds, sterilize them in warm water at 55°C for 20 minutes, and then dry them.

[0025] 2. Put the dried watermelon seeds in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin to soak for 6 hours, take out and wash; wherein, the concentration of potassium nitrate in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin is 0.2wt%. The concentration of element is 0.02wt%.

[0026] 3. Soak the watermelon seeds after soaking and washing in water for 3 hours, then take them out and plant them in the substrate, and germinate them at a temperature of 35°C and a humidity of 90-95%, wherein the substrate is plant ash, vermiculite and perlite in volume ratio 4:0.6:0.4.

Embodiment 3

[0028] 1. Wash the watermelon seeds, sterilize them in warm water at 50°C for 15 minutes, and then dry them.

[0029] 2, place the dried watermelon seeds in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin to soak for 5.5h, take out and wash; wherein, the concentration of potassium nitrate in the mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin is 0.15wt%, gibberellin The concentration of mycin was 0.015 wt%.

[0030] 3. Soak the watermelon seeds after soaking and washing in water for 2 hours, then take them out and plant them in the substrate, and germinate them at a temperature of 30°C and a humidity of 90-95%, wherein the substrate is plant ash, vermiculite and perlite by volume 3:0.6:0.4.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving a watermelon seed germination rate. The method comprises the following steps: washing watermelon seeds, sterilizing the watermelon seeds in warm water at the temperature of 45-55 DEG C for 10-20 minutes, and airing the seeds; soaking the aired watermelon seeds in a mixed solution of potassium nitrate and gibberellin, taking out the seeds and washing; soaking the soaked and washed watermelon seeds in water for 1-3 hours, taking out the seeds, sowing the seeds in a substrate, and performing accelerating germination at the temperature of 25-35 DEG C and under the humidity of 90-95 percent. By utilizing the method disclosed by the invention, the germination rate and germination energy of the watermelon seeds are improved, so that the watermelon sprouts are in order. The method is simple and efficient, is low in cost and is suitable for popularization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fruit cultivation, in particular to a method for improving germination of watermelon seeds. Background technique [0002] Watermelon can be called "the king of melons", and the main edible part is the well-developed placenta. The outer skin of the fruit is smooth, green or yellow in color, the juicy flesh is red or yellow, and white flesh is rare. Watermelon is cold in nature and sweet in taste; it is currently planted all over our country. Watermelon has the effects of clearing heat and relieving heat, promoting body fluid to quench thirst, diuresis and relieving restlessness; it helps to cure chest and diaphragm gas congestion, fullness and discomfort, dysuria, mouth and nose sores, summer heat, heat stroke, and hangover poisoning. The skin can also be used as cooking accessories, medicines and so on. Now watermelons have problems such as slow seedling emergence after sowing, irregular seedling emerg...
