Winter forest seed, improper storage, will affect the germination rate. As long as you pay attention to the following points, forest seed can be well preserved.
Avoiding too much moisture The higher the seed moisture content, the greater the respiratory intensity, the more nutrients are consumed, and the weaker seed emergence is.
The prevention and control of smoked seeds that have been smoked for a long time will not only reduce the germination rate and germination potential, but also cause the incidence of seedlings in the spring of the following year.
Avoid toxic gases and avoid storage with volatile gases such as pesticides and chemical fertilizers.
Should not touch the ground. Regardless of whether sacks, bags or other containers are used to hold the seeds, they should not be placed directly on the ground. They must be more than 40 cm above the ground to prevent the seeds from getting wet.
Do not use a plastic bag to pack the seed plastic bag without ventilation, which will cause the seeds to stop breathing, and at the same time, cause moldy deterioration of the seeds with high moisture content.
Do not suddenly freeze the seeds that are stored outdoors, and do not go to the warm room after freezing. The seeds in the warm room should not be moved outdoors.
