Sea buckthorn can be sown in spring and autumn. Spring sowing is mostly done from February to May, and autumn sowing is done from September to October. Before sowing, germination must be carried out. Soak the seeds in warm water at 40-60°C for one day. Take them out and soak them in a low-concentration potassium permanganate solution for disinfection. Store them in a moist place to wait for germination. Level the soil, fertilize and plow it deeply, plant the seeds on it, water them properly, and seedlings will emerge in a week.

1. Sowing time

Sea buckthorn sowing is divided into spring sowing and autumn sowing. The time for spring sowing is uncertain, and can be anywhere from February to May, while autumn sowing is mostly in late autumn, and the time is chosen between September and October. This plant has strong adaptability to the environment and can grow at both high and low temperatures. However, the seedlings are relatively fragile, so a warm environment must be provided to avoid affecting subsequent development.

2. Seed soaking and germination

Preparation Before sowing, sea buckthorn seeds must be germinated. Soak the seeds in warm water at 40-60°C for about a day. After taking them out, replace them with a low-concentration potassium permanganate solution. The concentration should not exceed 2%. This can effectively disinfect and reduce the possibility of disease in the seedlings. Then keep it in a moist place and wait until one-third of the seeds have cracked before sowing.

3. Soil preparation and sowing

For In order for sea buckthorn to grow better, the soil needs to be prepared first. Level the soil and apply organic fertilizer as a base fertilizer, then plow it deeply to bury the fertilizer underneath. Sow the germinated seeds into the soil with a row spacing of about 10-15 cm and bury them 3 cm into the soil. After sowing, water the appropriate amount of water so that it can germinate quickly. Generally, the seedlings will emerge in about a week.

4. Seedling Care

Sea Buckthorn After the first pair of true leaves grow, thinning is required to remove weak seedlings and retain strong seedlings to continue growing. When the fourth pair of true leaves grows, the seedlings need to be thinned a second time to maintain a spacing of 5 cm so that the seedlings can develop better. During the seedling cultivation period, attention should be paid to maintaining temperature and humidity, and avoiding prolonged exposure to the sun.
