Popis: Because spinach seeds have a hard seed coat structure, if direct sowing is adopted without seed treatment in production and cultivation, it is very easy to cause poor seed emergence, resulting in a certain degree of yield reduction. Studying the germination conditions of spinach seeds under different conditions is of great significance for the quality of spinach seed germination and farmers' sowing and production. In this study, two methods were used to treat spinach seeds and observe their germination. The results show that the two methods are significantly better than the control, indicating that H2O2 soaking and warm soup soaking can promote the germination of spinach seeds. The effect of 20% H2O2 soaking is the best. Dioxygen water can also release oxygen in aqueous solution, which is very beneficial to the growth of Spinach Seedlings. Therefore, it is suggested that spinach seeds should be soaked in 20% H2O2 or warm water in combination with the actual production, so as to promote the germination of spinach seeds under appropriate temperature conditions.
