The yield of vegetable crops depends a lot on the quality of the seeds. That is why the seed must be obtained from healthy and at the same time strong plants. At the same time, it is important that the seeds are stored under certain conditions, because, for example, due to low temperature or high humidity, their ability to germinate decreases.

We offer to order certified seed material from the "Delta" peasant (farm) farm, whose specialists have been engaged in seed production for more than 25 years. High-quality vegetable seeds are not sold with free shipping throughout Ukraine.They are grown from strong and healthy plants, their quality is controlled by the appropriate specialists and government inspectors.

Seed from a reliable supplier

The catalog of KFH "Delta" contains seeds of cucumbers, sweet corn, cabbage, carrots, peppers, beets, onions and other plants:

1) with proper cultivation and care, vegetables will give an excellent harvest;

2) the seed is sold with the appropriate certificates that confirm their worthy quality;

3) plants are adapted for growing in the climatic conditions of our country, so they do not need any special care;

4) specialists of the farm "Delta" receive seeds from the material supplied by the Institute of Vegetable and Melon Growing of the UAAS (this is the leading scientific institution of the country, founded in 1947);

5) all stages of obtaining seeds are carefully controlled.

On the site you can pick up vegetable seeds, as well as see photographs showing how the plants are grown. The site contains a price list and indicates the phones by which you can ask questions and get competent answers from a specialist.

Very often, gardeners ask such questions.

How to check seed germination? In how many days will they rise? What are the germination times?

When to sow and when to wait for seedlings? How many days do seeds of a particular vegetable germinate? When will the first shoots hatch from the ground?

How many days to wait for the harvest after germination? When can you harvest? Knowing the timing of the emergence of a particular vegetable crop is very important for calculating the date of sowing vegetables for seedlings.

I hope that the following table will help you navigate and get an answer to the questions of concern to all of us gardeners. Naturally, the terms indicated in the table refer to high-quality seeds, sown in compliance with all the rules of agricultural technology.

Note.

* ripening time of cabbage after planting seedlings in open ground. ** onions grown from sets ripen three weeks earlier.

*** term of technical ripeness of pepper; biological occurs 20 days later.

Remember that all seeds have an expiration date, after which germination can be questioned.

For example, the shelf life of celery seeds, onions, batun, leeks, sorrel, rhubarb is 2-3 years, dill, parsley, tomatoes, eggplant, pepper, carrots is 3-4 years, peas, beans, cabbage, radishes, turnips, salad mustard - 4-6 years, watermelon, melon, pumpkin, cucumber, zucchini, squash - 6 to 8 years. Beet seeds can be stored for 10 or even 20 years. And beans do not lose their germination up to 700 years (it's even hard to imagine).

These deadlines cannot be considered strictly fixed. If certain conditions are observed (the required humidity, temperature, tightness), then the seeds of many crops can be stored for a longer time. And under poor storage conditions, their germination can drop sharply.

A useful procedure when preparing seeds for sowing is calibration.

It allows you to separate quality from barren flowers. To discard barren flowers, it is customary to dilute salt in water, throw seeds there, leave them for a while (from half an hour to 2 hours). Those that come up should be thrown away.

There is no 100% germination, but you can find out what percentage will rise in advance.

Determining seed germination is easy.

We need to create favorable conditions for their growth. We take seeds of any culture and place them between two layers of gauze. You don't need to take a lot to check the germination.

Enough 8-10 pieces. Cover the moistened seeds in gauze on top with a film or a saucer and put where it is warm. Ventilate periodically, at least once a day, so that mold does not appear, check if they have germinated.

Seeds are considered germinated if they have roots or sprouts.Each culture has its own term through which they sprout (see.

(see table above). If the radish, for example, did not sprout after 7 days, and the zucchini after 10 days, then do not even try to sow such seeds. If they have not sprouted at home, then they will definitely not sprout in the garden.

It also happens that the test showed good germination, you sowed them in a bowl for seedlings, but they do not germinate in any way.

There is a very simple way to prepare seeds - to "force" the seedlings to emerge faster from the ground. True, it is more suitable for a small amount of seed. Place your bowl of sown seeds inside a plastic bag, breathe into it.

Then quickly tie the bag, put in the same place. The carbon dioxide you breathe out, its concentration inside the bag, will have a beneficial effect on the seedlings. You will see the first shoots soon.

You can increase germination by warming up. To do this, place the seeds in a thermos with water at a temperature of 40-50 ° C. Soak them there for at least 6 hours.

How to properly collect and store tomato seeds

You can store your own seedling material in glass containers - this is the best choice.

It is worth collecting it, adhering to the following scheme:

• Choose the right fruit. These should be large-sized tomatoes with a characteristic color that has already appeared, with a medium degree of ripeness.
• If you plant tomatoes on the site, then take the fruits from the first branches - as a rule, they are the largest. If in a greenhouse, then it is possible from the first and second branches.
• Brown tomatoes will be placed in a suitable place to reach the required ripeness.
• Avoid overripe fruits, as seeds begin to germinate in them quickly, which means that their shelf life is shorter, as does the percentage of germination.
• When the tomatoes have reached the required degree of maturity, they are cut and dipped in water to make it easier to separate the seeds from the pulp.
• After a few days (3-4) the pulp is removed, while the tomato itself, as they say, should "ferment".
• When the material is received, it is rinsed with water and salt, immersed in a cloth bag, where it is rubbed with hands to remove debris.
• Then the seeds are dried on a newspaper, and then sent to a glass container, where they will be stored.
• Periodically, the material received will have to be checked and the spoiled, blackened seeds from the jar must be removed to avoid spoiling the rest.
• You should not collect and store the seeds of hybrids, since it is difficult to call them high germination.

This method is contraindicated for tomato seeds!

It is better to subject them to a hardening procedure. Seeds calibrated in salt water, rinse. It is advisable to disinfect them with a manganese solution or a solution of colloidal silver.

After all this, place the bowl with seeds in a plastic bag and refrigerate where you store vegetables for 10-12 hours. Repeat this procedure every day for a week. That is, the seeds are at room temperature for 12 hours, and the remaining 12 hours in the refrigerator.

The seeds of crops such as carrots, celery, parsley take a very long time to germinate, because the essential oils that are present in their shell prevent water from reaching the embryo. Therefore, the seeds of these plants must be processed before sowing.

I put the seeds of these crops on a gauze (one gauze - one vegetable), put it in a saucer and fill it with a thin layer of vodka (40 °). I leave them there for 15 minutes.

During this time, most of the essential oils will dissolve. Then I rinse the gauze with seeds in cool water several times. I dry it until flowability appears.

Everything. You can sow. Thanks to this method of processing, the seeds will sprout much faster.

If you still have old seeds from past years, then do not rush to throw them away. It is likely that the seeds retained their germination capacity.

Most vegetable seeds retain their germination ability even longer than can be indicated on the seed packaging - if the correct storage conditions have been followed.

Optimal storage conditions

The material should be stored under the following conditions:

• preferably in a dark place, away from the sun's rays and direct heat sources;
• in compliance with the temperature regime: from 8 to 12 degrees, with a plus sign;
• the room must be dry, excessive dampness will harm, cause mold or rot;
• it is advisable to periodically sort out the seeds.

Shelf life of vegetable seeds

The shelf life of seeds is not the same for different vegetable crops and varies even depending on the variety.

Our table will help you understand the approximate shelf life of vegetable seeds.

As you can see from the table, the most popular vegetable crops - such as cucumbers, beets, carrots - are champions in germination. Their seeds can be stored for 4-5 years or more. Therefore, the seeds of these vegetables can be safely stored even for a long time - the main thing is to provide them with a cool, dry and dark place.

But the seeds of parsnip, savory, chives and scorzonera (black root) must be purchased very carefully, paying attention to the date of packaging. It is even better to propagate these vegetables with your own seeds, without leaving them for storage, but sowing them immediately after harvest.

Reviews of men

Numerous reviews of men confirm the effectiveness of pumpkin seeds in the treatment and prevention of diseases of the genitourinary system.

Alexander, 38 years old: “Two years ago, due to a violation of potency, I started having problems in my relationship with my wife. Various medications did not bring the desired result. Then I decided to try pumpkin seeds with honey. After a week I began to feel better, and after a month my potency returned to normal. I undergo such a course of treatment twice a year. "

Ivan, 70 years old: “Five years ago I noticed a weakening of my erection. A friend advised me to eat a handful of seeds a day. I eat them raw, I don't fry them. Sex life is all right now. "

George, 42 years old: “I read about the benefits of pumpkin for men on the Internet. Since erectile dysfunction has recently been observed, I decided to give it a try. Potency is back to normal. I also noticed a strengthening of the nervous system and an improvement in general condition. "

Determination of seed germination

How to determine seed germination? This is sometimes necessary, for example, in the case when even the date of collection of seeds is unknown, or they were stored in unsuitable conditions.

Germination testing can be done at home. However, although it is simple in nature and even interesting, it is hardly worth spending time testing inexpensive seeds of unknown origin.

Do the test only in cases when you feel sorry for losing expensive seeds of rare varieties, if suddenly there is a hope that they are still suitable for germination.

To test for germination, you need to count several pieces of seeds from the batch.

Prepare a saucer on which to put several layers of napkin or toilet paper dampened with water. Place the seeds under a couple of layers of a damp cloth. Wrap the saucer in a plastic bag or wrap it with airtight foil.

Then put the saucer in a warm place. Make sure that the paper on the saucer remains damp at all times. Shoots should appear in 4-8 days.

If less than 30% of the seeds germinate under these conditions, then the batch can be rejected.Such seeds can be safely thrown away, they are useless.

If more than 30% of the seeds sprout, then their germination is still satisfactory. They can be planted in seedlings or in the ground. Only when sowing, take more seeds than is required by the norms, given what approximate percentage of them will not sprout.

Write on the seed bags that you tested what percentage of germination was observed for them.

In the future, carefully store the purchased and collected seeds - be sure to inscribe the dates of their purchase or collection, and also be sure to sort and sort these bags, preparing for the new season.
