Problems solved by technology

In this method, on the one hand, after the soaking of the seeds, the seeds should be repeatedly rubbed in clear water to wash off the mucilage on the surface of the seeds, so as to facilitate the germination of the seeds, which increases the artificial input; Inaccurate control of the water temperature and time of soaking seeds, it is easy to inactivate the seeds due to too high water temperature or too long soaking time, thus affecting the germination rate of seeds

Embodiment 1

[0016] (1) Seed soaking: first soak the watermelon seeds in water at 25-30°C for 1 hour, then ultrasonically treat them at an ultrasonic frequency of 40kHz and a water temperature of 50-55°C for 1 hour, then add them to soak in water at 15-20°C, and continue at an ultrasonic frequency of 40kHz after 15 minutes. 1. Ultrasonic treatment for 1 hour at a water temperature of 50-55°C, and finally wash the seeds twice with water at 25-30°C to remove floating impurities;

[0017] (2) Pregermination: Wrap the soaked watermelon seeds with a towel to make a pregermination seed bag, then place the seed bag on a small-hole screen, and use 25-30°C hot air to blow through the seed bag vertically from the bottom of the screen, after 2 hours Put the seed pack in a microwave processor, evenly spread a layer of 5cm thick bedding material on the bottom of the seed pack, then microwave the seed pack at a microwave frequency of 2450MHz and a power of 700W for 10s, and finally place the seed pack on...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for soaking and germinating watermelon seeds, and relates to the technical field of seed treatment. The method comprises two steps of soaking seeds and germinating. According to the method, the soaking time can be shortened by utilizing an ultrasonic assisting method during seed soaking, and mucilage on the seed surface can be removed by ultrasonic treatment, so that extra labor cost can be reduced; two modes including hot air and microwave are adopted to germinate during seed germination so as to shorten the germinating time; and seeds are prevented from being suddenly heated due to local heating during germination by utilizing the arrangement of a screen and padding, so that the seed germination rate can be sufficiently improved.

Description

[0001] Technical field: [0002] The invention relates to the technical field of seed treatment, in particular to a method for soaking and accelerating germination of watermelon seeds. [0003] Background technique: [0004] The watermelon seed shell is hard and absorbs water relatively slowly. In order to speed up the water absorption speed of the seeds and shorten the germination and emergence time, the seeds should generally be soaked before sowing. The traditional method is to soak the seeds in cold or warm water, wrap the seeds in plastic or towels after soaking, and then germinate at 30-35°C, and sow after most of the seeds sprout. In this method, on the one hand, after the soaking of the seeds, the seeds should be repeatedly rubbed in clear water to wash off the mucilage on the surface of the seeds, so as to facilitate the germination of the seeds, which increases the artificial input; If the water temperature and time of soaking seeds are not properly controlled, it i...
