The roots and fruits of peanuts grow in the soil, and its flowers, leaves and stems grow on the ground. After the peanut blooms, a fruit needle will grow inside the corolla, which is composed of an ovary and an ovary stalk. This fruit needle is geotropic. After five or six days of stretching, it will burrow into the soil, and the ovary will fall into the soil. Then, under suitable conditions, it will develop and expand into a fruit. Therefore, its roots and fruits grow in the soil, which is actually the origin of "groundnut".

1. Do flowers grow in the soil or on the ground?

The roots of peanuts grow in the soil, but their flowers, leaves and stems all grow on the ground. But after it blooms, a fruit needle will grow inside the corolla, which is composed of an ovary and an ovary stalk. This fruit needle is geotropic, and after five or six days of stretching, it will burrow into the soil, and the ovary will fall into the soil, and then develop and expand into a fruit under suitable conditions. So its roots and fruits grow in the soil, but the flowers, leaves and stems are on the ground. This is actually the origin of "groundnut".

2. Why do peanut fruits grow in the soil

After the peanut flower is pollinated, an ovary stalk will form at the base of the ovary within the next four or five days. When the ovary stalk is elongated, it will look like a needle, so it is called a fruit needle. And because the ovary needs a relatively dark environment to develop and expand into fruit, the fruit needles will burrow into the soil. The soil environment is dark and the water and nutrients are relatively sufficient, so the ovary can expand rapidly and gradually develop into fruits. Only the growing conditions in the soil can promote the development of the ovary, so peanut fruits will grow in the soil.

< p>Seed selection: First select relatively high-quality, plump peanut seeds. For potted peanuts, due to limited space, usually three or four are enough. After selecting the seeds, soak them in warm water overnight for germination treatment.

Sowing: Prepare a flower pot of suitable size, fill it with loose and breathable soil, and spray some water to moisten the soil. Then bury the germinated seeds in the soil to a depth of about two to three centimeters. Then cover it with a thin layer of soil and spray some water appropriately. You can also cover the flower pot with plastic film, which can have a certain effect of heat preservation and moisturizing.

Management: Move the flower pots covered with film to a place with mild and sufficient sunlight to avoid exposure to the sun. After waiting for about an hour, you can see the seeds sprouting. At this time, you can tear off the plastic film and water on time every day.
