ESP/ING Mis semilleros de onoto - My onoto seedbeds bby @anny05
Start with the preparation of the soil, 50% organic and 50% river sand so that the soil is more porous and does not crush the root. This soil was placed in the germination tray.
This tray has capacity for 88 seedlings. Use a stick to poke two holes in each portable cone.
Then place the onoto seeds to a depth of 1.5 cm.
To seal the seeds, I spread the soil with my finger all over the tray to finish this procedure.
Está semilla empieza a germinar después de 30 días, a partir de esa fecha se debe trasplantar al suelo, cada planta a 4 metros de distancia.
