Self-reasons of bitter gourd seeds not sprouting. As the saying goes, no matter how good the conditions are, stones can't hatch chickens. Simply put, seeds will not germinate at all for many reasons. Common reasons for not sprouting are as follows. In addition to the external environment can not meet the conditions of bitter gourd seed germination, the poor conditions of bitter gourd seeds are also important factors limiting seed germination, such as seed withering, seeds with seed shells but no seeds can not germinate; Insects bite seeds and damage seeds such as embryos or machinery.

Seeds planted with bitter gourd can be purchased or kept by themselves, because farmers in rural areas generally keep bitter gourd seeds themselves; If you buy bitter gourd seeds directly in the market, or buy them online, they are screened before selling, and the quality is guaranteed. Hard-shelled melon seeds are difficult to germinate, such as bitter, winter and gourd, and the skin thickness is difficult to get in. You must have enough time to soak the seeds. Put the selected seeds into 55-degree hot water and keep stirring until about 30 degrees, and then enter the seed soaking process. Cold water will do.

When you try to accelerate germination, you can put the seeds in warm water of about 50 degrees and keep stirring to avoid scalding the seeds at too high a temperature. When the water temperature drops below 30 degrees, stop stirring, soak for about half a day, and finally wrap it in a wet cloth and put it in an environment of about 30 degrees for germination. Before accelerating germination, the seeds should be treated first. In sunny weather, the seeds of bitter gourd can be exposed to the sun for several hours, which can effectively eliminate some bacteria carried by the seed epidermis and play a certain disinfection role.

Cause analysis: there is a film on the surface of bitter gourd seeds, and the seed coat is thicker. After direct seeding, the water permeability of seed coat is low, the seed absorbs water slowly, the germination rate is slow, the emergence rate is low, and the emergence uniformity is poor. Put warm water of 55~60 degrees into a clay pot or ceramic pot, then slowly pour the seeds into the warm water, stirring while pouring, so as not to burn the seeds. Soak the seeds in water for 12~ 14 hours, and take them out after they are fully absorbed.
