Germination experiment　 Time to soak in water

experiment content and purpose

I often hear that it is good to put the seeds in water as a way to increase the germination rate of the species.
In fact, when we experimented the germination rate of the seeds which were put in water and the one which was not put in water,
It turned out that the germination rate of the species put in water was better,

(> The difference in germination rate between wet and wet seeds )

Here, a little question ... (; ･`д･´)

How many hours should I put it in water? ?

I put seeds in water and examined the time when germination was the best.

 

 

Experimental overview

Germination experiment Time to put seeds in water
Soak spinach seeds in water and take 5 seeds every 8 hours
Find out how many hours the seeds are the best to sprout.

What you have prepared

1. Glass cup of water (for seeding)
2. spinach seed
3. a container containing kitchen paper. (I will put the seeds taken here)

Germination experiment　 Time to soak in water

 

This experiment is a germination experiment.

Is the germination rate different between the seeds that were previously soaked and those that are not? I have checked it out. (＾◇＾)

(> The difference in germination rate between wet and wet seeds )

The result was that the seeds that were soaked in water had a better germination rate,
A little question here, (;´･ω･)
What time does the seed put on water sprout the best?

I experimented immediately.

 

First, put spinach seeds in a glass of water.

From there, take 5 tablets every 8 hours and put it in a kitchen paper-filled tapper to see the progress.

 

One day later

Oh! It is sprouting immediately. (＾◇＾)
One grain for eight hours and two grains for sixteen hours.

 

2 days later,

One seed germinated for 24 hours.

For now, 1 grain for 8 hours, 2 grains for 16 hours, 1 grain for 24 hours.

 

It is three days later.

Freshly germinated 2 grains for 8 hours, 1 grain for 16 hours, 1 grain for 24 hours, 2 grains for 32 hours, and 1 grain for 40 hours.

 

In total, 3 grains for 8 hours, 3 grains for 16 hours, 2 grains for 24 hours, 2 grains for 32 hours, and 1 grain for 40 hours.

 

 

 

 

4 days later.

Up to here, 3 grains for 8 hours, 3 grains for 16 hours, 4 grains for 24 hours, 3 grains for 32 hours, 3 grains for 40 hours, 3 grains for 48 hours

It became.

On the 4th day, it seems that it germinated side by side, (＾◇＾)

 

 

Experimental results

The fastest-germinating species is 1 grain for 8 hours, 2 grains for 16 hours,

It germinated at all time zones after 4 days.

 

Experimental results from future kitchen garden

It was found that the best time for seeding water was 16 hours . (｀・ω・´)

Spinach seeds for 16 hours and then sprinkle (＾◇＾)
