Sweet potato germination trick, how to make sweet potato germinate quickly?

Sweet potato is a high-yield crop, which is usually planted in spring. There are generally two methods to accelerate germination, one is the traditional seedling raising method, and the other is the high temperature germination in greenhouse. Details are as follows:

How to accelerate the germination of sweet potato

Traditional seedling raising method: when the sweet potato is germinated, the whole sweet potato should be selected and cut into pieces. There are often some pits on sweet potatoes, and sweet potato buds will emerge from these pits, so it is best to have 2-3 sprouting points when cutting into pieces.

Shallow burying sweet potato tuber in fertile soil, keeping the soil moist, controlling the temperature at about 25 degrees Celsius, and covering it with a plastic film after sprinkling water can keep warm and keep water, which is more conducive to sweet potato germination. It should be noted that this plastic film can be peeled off after the sweet potato germinates.

Accelerating germination at high temperature in greenhouse: the speed of sweet potato germination is related to temperature, and we can adjust the temperature in greenhouse to accelerate germination. Generally speaking, if the temperature in the greenhouse is controlled at about 30 degrees Celsius, the germination will be quick and the buds will be strong.

If you want to germinate sweet potato by temperature control, it should be noted that the temperature of ripening it should not be lower than 16 degrees Celsius, so as not to affect its growth.

These are the methods of accelerating sweet potato germination compiled by Bian Xiao. Either way, you need to plant it. Seed selection, sowing, watering and film mulching should be done well before germination. I hope the above content can help everyone!
