Terms of sowing depends on the seedling age, says a senior fellow of the West Siberian Vegetable Research Station HopeAndreev. This method is recommended for use by many experts.

Counting is simple: it is necessary to determine the approximate gardener transplanting date in soil or a greenhouse, to count from her best age seedlings, then another 5-7 days to seedling emergence and 3-4 days after the adaptation picks.

The formula: = term sowing transplanting period - age - about 10 days.

At what age are planted seedlings of each culture, and the number of days to germination of seeds, will prompt our plates.

Term transplanting

The average period of germination

For example, we calculate the period of sowing seeds for seedlings of early-ripening tomatoes. Let us assume that we are going to be sown seedlings May 15th. Look at the table, counted on May 15, 50 days, a week at the seedling emergence, and another four days to poslepikirovochny period. Gets the date of sowing seeds for seedlings: March 14-15.

simple method, but fairly accurate.

To be sure, the seeds are sown in stages for about two weeks from the date received. This is to ensure that when planting some plants party came exactly in the best light and temperature conditions.

Bit nedorosshaya seedlings always better a little overgrown. The longer the seedlings sitting on the windowsill, so much the worse for her.

Do not hurry to sow in February, while in January - even more so. Overgrown seedlings survives worse, planting these plants will lead to a big shortfall early harvest.

Overgrown seedlings need lots of attention, lots of light and space. Must somehow restrain its growth, lowering the temperature, change the watering regime. Time will be spent dancing with tambourines and the formation of useless high plants, and the first ovary during this time will be very weak and may die.

If there is no confidence that by the time the soil transplanting is already warm, it is recommended to transfer the seed sowing period for seedlings 10 days later; say, March 15 at 25. Nothing terrible will happen, but many problems to avoid work.

How to read the packets of seeds

The vegetation period. Experienced growers always warn newcomers: pay attention to the growing season indicated on the bag!

term storage of seeds. This is a very important indicator for the peppers and eggplant - a year later germination they fall by 40%. Try to buy fresh seeds! But tomatoes can maintain good germination and 10 years, however, they lose their vigor.

Weight of seeds in a bag. The expert recommends to choose bags with a small amount of seeds that are packed by hand. They have a high germination and good quality. If your bag is not specified the number of seeds in pieces, and the weight in grams, they are not suitable for planting. These seeds produce for planting a large area in open ground.
