2. What are the seedling-raising methods?
1. Seed collection
After the lily fruit splits open, there will be many seeds inside; collect these seeds and sow them on a seedbed in spring or autumn of the following year, with the temperature controlled between 12-15 degrees Celsius, and they will germinate in 20-30 days.
2. Seed treatment
Lily seeds are spherical bulb-shaped; for pot cultivation, seed bulbs with a bulb diameter of 11-18cm should be selected. After obtaining the seed bulbs, the root system should be treated first. First, remove the rotten roots to expose the new roots, then place them in a 1:1000 carbendazim solution to soak for 20 minutes, then rinse them clean with water and dry them for later use.
3. Soil
Lily flower growth requires loose, fertile, well-aerated soil, and sandy soil is a very good choice. Spray the soil with the disinfectant liquid formalin for sterilization treatment, then cover and shade the soil with plastic film; after about 5-7 days remove the plastic film and place it in a ventilated spot to dry before use.
4. Sowing
Plant the germinated seedlings in the prepared soil, inserting and planting them at a spacing of 15-20 cm. Use soil to cover and secure the area around the roots; if any overly long plant seedlings are found, prune them promptly before planting. After sowing is completed, place them in a sunny spot, water appropriately, and keep the soil moist.
The above is an introduction to lily seeds. Lily seed propagation is the most difficult of the propagation methods. First you must wait for the lily seeds to take root and sprout, and moisture must also be controlled well, so as to avoid causing the seeds to die outright.
