Effects of hormone seed soaking and substrate cultivation on the growth of blueberry

摘要

Blueberry seeds have low germination rates, which is difficult to germinate under natural conditions. In this experiment, the optimum treatment of blueberry seed germination was explored using different hormones, different concentrations of the same hormone and different treatment durations. The results showed that blueberry seeds reach the highest germination rate and the shortest germination period when 500 mg/L GA3 treatment for 48 h. We found that the substrate ratio of perlite + grass carbon (ratio 1:1) is most suitable for blueberry seed germination and seedling growth.
