3. Treatment. Additionally, the grains are immersed in a growth-stimulating solution.

Prepare the pots before planting. In early February, peat containers are bought, where the seeds are subsequently buried by 1-2 cm. After that, the pots are watered with warm, settled liquid, and then placed in the sun. Transfer to a greenhouse or open ground is carried out after 65-70 days, when the weather is warm, and the ground warms up to at least 8 degrees Celsius.
