Grandidieri Baobab Tree Seeds Germination Challenge (Part 2: Germination episode)

1. Four days after germination on a kitchen towel, one seed starts to move!

2. After another day, the pointed root came out more. It's time to move it to the soil!

• In order to sprout other seeds, it continues to put the spray and disposable containers on the router.

3. Prepare a disposable coffee cup. Tape the lid on the top.

• [Important thing] Putting tape on the lid is to increase the humidity. I recommend that you put some air on it.

4. In a disposable coffee cup, make a hole with an awl.

• [Important thing] I recommend that the hole is bigger and more drilling than this. It's because the drainage isn't as good as I thought. Raise the drainage power!

5. Put the soil for normal grinding and gently put the seeds on top. Then cover the soil about 1 to 2 cm. And let it soak.

• [Important thing] If you don't mix it in addition to regular ground soil, it will increase the humidity and reduce the drainage... I recommend that you mix pearlite or rice husk additionally. I think it's better to increase the drainage power.

6. There's something peeking!

• [Important thing] It is said that it is better to have dark roots. I recommend that you do not throw away the cup holder and insert it into the transparent cup. (I even put two cup holders in.)
