Advantages and disadvantages of flower seed propagation

(1) Easy to store and transport. If you use cut blocks, it is troublesome to transport, and there are also high requirements for storage conditions.

(2) Convenient sowing. Sowing seeds directly or machine sowing into the ground is naturally much more convenient than transplanting them one by one, and it is also easy to survive.

Disadvantages:

(1) Reproduction conditions are limited. It must go through a long process of flowering, fruiting, ripening, and harvesting, and reproduction is slow and affected by environmental conditions.

(2) Poor genetic stability. If it is a hybrid, the hybrid advantage cannot be maintained. And there may be mixing in the seed production process, making the seeds less pure.

(3) Long reproductive period. For some flowering plants, the solid plant from sowing to flowering and fruiting needs a child period, that is, the asexual growth period, in order to differentiate the sexual organs. And the cut block itself has a high degree of differentiation, flowering and fruiting earlier, you can get an economic return earlier.
