To increase the germination percentage in cucurbitaceous crops do these measures

  • Cucurbitaceous crops are the main crops grown in summer.

  • In the summer season, the temperature changes and the temperature starts increasing. Due to an increase in temperature, the seeds are not fully germinated in the cucurbitaceous crops, due to which the number of plants is reduced and the yield is affected.

  • To prevent this, sow the seeds of cucurbits with seed treatment only.

  • It is very important to have sufficient moisture for germination in the field at the time of sowing. Insufficient moisture, the germination of the plant is good, the development of new roots in the plants is also good.

  • For good growth and development of roots, use the organic product Maxxmyco 2 kg/acre as soil treatment within 15-20 days of sowing.

  • Simultaneously, treat the soil with humic acid @ 500 gm/acre.

  • Use of NPK consortia available in the Gramophone Samridhi kit at 100 gm per acre of the soil gives good seed germination and good root development.

  • By adopting these measures, the germination of crops can be increased.
