Clove sowing: it is advisable to use seeds to propagate, and it will blossom and bear fruit 5 ~ 6 years after planting. The fruit ripens in July and August, and the maturity varies with local climate and varieties. There are two kinds of fruits when they are ripe: purple-black and light red. Fresh fruit has solid meat quality, with 600 ~ 700 grains per kilogram of fresh fruit. Overripe fruits should not be sown, because radicles have germinated in the fruits, so they should be sown with the harvest.
If you can't sow in time, you can store it in moist fine sand or coconut fiber crumbs to avoid dry death. Generally, fresh fruit with meat is sown, and the pulp begins to rot 7 days after sowing, and seedlings emerge in 35 ~ 40 days. If you gently peel off the flesh and remove the thin seed coat, there will be hypertrophy of cotyledons and radicles. After sowing in August and September, the radicle has reached 1 cm after 3 days, and the emergence rate can be as high as 90%.
When peeling, pay attention to peeling from one end of the fruit handle, which is easy to peel and does not hurt the embryo. Ditching and sowing, the row spacing is 65,438+05 cm, the plant spacing is 65,438+00 cm, the seeds are laid flat, the radicle is facing down, and after covering the soil, it is even or slightly deeper than the soil surface. After sowing, the seedlings emerged about 10 days, and the buds emerged in a red cone shape, and only when they grew to 4 ~ 6cm did two red tender leaves appear.
