1, incubation time. There is no specific time requirement for the cultivation and germination of lotus root seeds. As long as the ambient temperature reaches 16 degrees Celsius, it can be sown all year round. In order to improve the germination rate of seeds, it is best to sow and propagate in spring, and the survival rate will be higher.

2. Treat seeds. First of all, prepare the seeds of lotus root, which should be full, full and free from pests and diseases. Good seeds can improve the germination rate. Because the seed shell of lotus root is hard, it is difficult to germinate only by soaking in water, so it needs to be treated in advance. Before soaking the seeds, manually break the shells. You can grind lotus root seeds on uneven ground, or you can break the small mouth at one end of the seeds with pliers. When operating this step, we should pay attention to discretion. Don't use too much force to hurt the seeds inside, and don't peel off the shell.

3. soak in water to germinate. Fill the container with clean water, and then soak the seeds in water to ensure that the seeds can be completely covered. Put the container in a warm room, change the water twice a day, and it will germinate in a week or so. After the lotus root germinates, it can strengthen the light and replenish water.

4. transplantation. After the seedlings grow, they can be transplanted. Prepare flowerpots and clean pond mud in advance, take out the seedlings, transplant them into the pond mud, and add appropriate amount of water.
