How to sow seeds

The planting time of this kind of coffee beans will choose to start in mid-April or late April every year, and the temperature when sowing can basically reach about 20 degrees, which is more in line with its germination requirements. Before sowing, we should also soak these seeds in warm water for a day, then rinse them with clean water, and then wrap them in cotton cloth. Generally, after three or four days, most of the seeds have already sprouted. At this time, the seeds can be sown. When sowing, the seeds are usually sown at a certain distance, and then covered with a thin layer of soil. If the soil is relatively dry, then it is best to hand over some water before sowing, which can promote the emergence speed of the seeds. Under normal circumstances, seedlings can grow in about ten days.

Daily management

After planting, in another week or so, we need to check the growth status of these small seedlings and replenish some scarce seedlings in time. When these small seedlings grow branches and leaves, we need to carry out appropriate intertillage and weeding work, so as to maintain the permeability of the soil. In fact, the management of water is relatively simple, because its ability to resist drought is very strong, and generally it can grow as long as it has a certain humidity, so we just need to water it according to its living conditions. generally, watering after planting can not be watered until the flowering stage, and at the same time, do not water again when the fruit is nearly ripe, because this kind of thing does not need too much water to grow. Therefore, in addition to some base fertilizer, we also need to carry out a topdressing, when the seedlings grow to a certain extent, give it appropriate confidence to topdressing, so as to prevent these plants from lodging.
