How many days does the wheat germinate?

It usually takes 7- 10 days for wheat sown in time from sowing to unearthed. If the sowing date is delayed or there is little rain, the emergence of seedlings will be delayed a lot.

The emergence time of wheat is directly related to temperature. The optimum temperature for wheat germination and emergence is between 15-20 degrees. In this temperature range, it is beneficial to improve the emergence rate of wheat. If the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, on the one hand, it will affect the emergence rate, on the other hand, it will delay the emergence time and increase the probability of rotten seeds. When it is lower than 0 degrees, it will lead to failure to appear.

The sowing depth of wheat is also a factor affecting the emergence time. In general, the sowing depth of wheat is 3-5cm, and the seedlings can emerge in about one week. If the sowing depth is too deep, the time from germination to emergence of wheat will be prolonged, and the water and nutrients consumed will also increase, which is also a normal phenomenon of about 10 days.

Suitable conditions for wheat growth:

1, the water difference includes two aspects, one is drought, and the other is excessive water. When the field is dry, wheat seeds can't absorb enough water and can't germinate and grow normally. Excessive humidity in the field will affect the respiration of wheat seeds and also affect germination and emergence. 10 days is a good result, and the lack of seedlings and broken ridges is the problem to worry about.

2. The quality of soil and soil preparation will also affect the emergence time of wheat. If the soil conditions are good and the quality of soil preparation is good, seedlings can emerge in about a week. On the contrary, if the soil is sticky and the surface is hard and barren, the emergence time of wheat will be delayed. In addition, the soil preparation is not in place before sowing, which leads to low oxygen content in the soil and affects the germination and emergence of seeds.
