What are the ways in which lotus spreads its seeds?
The way the lotus spreads its seeds is that after the lotus seed pod exposes its seeds, when the leaf stalk withers, the seed pod breaks off and falls into the water, and then the water drifts the seed pod to other places where it sinks to the bottom, after which the seeds come into contact with the soil and begin to grow and sprout in a suitable environment.
How do you plant lotus seeds?
First take the selected good-quality lotus seeds with their skins still on, use a sharp knife to cut away 2-3 mm of the seed coat at the top so that water can soak in, place them in water to soak for 2-3 days, and once the seeds have absorbed water and swollen, sow them in a pot (the potting soil is prepared in the same way as for the division method), then immerse the pot in a large water vat, keeping the water on the surface of the pot 3-4 cm deep. At a temperature of 25-30 degrees, after 8-10 days, fine sprouts will emerge, and afterwards leaves gradually grow; by the second year they can bloom.
The above is the relevant introduction to the ways the lotus spreads its seeds, and we hope it is helpful to everyone.
