1, put Illicium verum seeds into dry yellow fine soil or fine sand at the ratio of1:5, mix well, pile them in an unventilated place, place them for 3 to 4 days, and then compact the mixed seeds and dry yellow fine soil. This is one of the simple methods to accelerate germination of Illicium verum seeds. Be sure to store them in a dry underground hole indoors, fill the hole with dry fine soil, and add wooden boards to close the hole to reduce ventilation.

2. In addition to the above-mentioned methods, the seeds and yellow soil can be stirred evenly at the ratio of1:3, and appropriate amount of water is added to make the soil wet, so that the seeds can stick to the wet yellow soil. Put them in a damp place indoors and stir them every 3-4 days to keep the yellow soil wet. If it is dry, sprinkle water with appropriate amount, and the humidity is suitable for grasping the soil by hand to form a ball. After 2 months, the seeds can be dried.

3. Seeding and accelerating germination of seeds before sowing can make the emergence rate higher, and there can be no pests and diseases in the planting process. In this process, we should always keep the humidity until 50% of the seeds are all exposed, so we can start to cultivate and sow.
