Strawberries are usually sown in the spring, when the climate is suitable, the collection of seeds can also be sown immediately, that is, sown in the fall. Before sowing, pay attention to soaking the seeds and leveling the ground to improve the germination rate.
How long does it take for strawberry seeds to germinate
Strawberry seeds should be soaked for 8-12 hours before sowing. The seeds are sown on the soil surface after expansion and will germinate in about 15 days. For better germination of strawberry seeds, it is best to use fertile and well-drained soil and add well-rotted chicken manure or soybean cake as a base fertilizer and moderate daily maintenance.
Strawberry seeds direct planting
Strawberry seeds can be planted directly, but to improve the germination rate of strawberry seeds, it is best to soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours, and then low-temperature treatment of about 0, which will improve the germination rate.
Fast germination of strawberry seeds
Soak strawberry seeds in warm water for 12 hours. After the seeds swell, remove any incomplete seeds. Spread the remaining seeds evenly into fertile soil and cover with a thin layer of soil. After that, place the seedling pots in shallow water and the seeds will germinate in about 15 days.
Strawberry seeds bloom after germination
Generally strawberries germinate in about 10 days and bloom in 3 months after sowing. The specific sowing time and flowering time need to be determined according to the planting environment of different regions, and the quality of strawberry seeds will also affect the germination and flowering time.

:Put the seedling pots into a shallow pool, remove them when the water slowly penetrates the potting soil, and then cover them with plastic film. After about 15 days, the strawberry seeds will be ready to germinate.
Strawberry seeds care after germination
Strawberry seeds need low temperature and short sunshine after germination. You can use grass cover and curtains to cover the shade net, by uncovering the grass cover to artificially create short sunlight and low temperature conditions, you can promote flower bud differentiation.
