-Step 1: soak the seeds in water for 1-2 days (change the water every half day)
-Step 2: soak in water until the seeds are swollen larger than normal, the seed coat is soft (sometimes there are seeds that have sprouted white fangs), then take the seeds out, remove the empty seeds or the moldy seeds floating on the water surface, then take the seeds out and scrub them many times to remove the sour smell and slimy water to prevent mold from spoiling the seeds.
-Step 3: To stimulate the germination rate. wash, put the seeds in a thick square cloth with 50% moisture (with a layer of cold towel inside, commonly used in restaurants, sterilized with boiling water to prevent the seed roots from sticking to the towel) or can also be replaced with 5-10 square 30cm moist paper, wrap the seeds tightly, put them in a clean and dry bowl or plastic box, cover the box tightly and put it in a dark place (can cover/cover the seed box with a thick, dark, sterilized cloth or a plastic pot to block the light)
-B4: The seed incubation period usually lasts from 3-4 days for the seeds to gradually germinate, remember to choose the germinated seeds every day to sow (can sow directly into the nursery soil or sow through an intermediary in a tray/tray for about 15-20 days to get the seedlings to transplant into the nursery soil), continue to scrub the remaining seeds thoroughly, at the same time wash 2 damp towels with boiling water, let cool and then wring dry 50% water to wrap, incubate seeds for the next day.
*Planting soil: Asparagus is suitable for red basalt soil, alluvial soil, gray soil, light sandy soil, loose soil, rich in organic matter, good drainage, not flooded in the rainy season, proactive irrigation in the dry season.
*Watering: Should be watered in the morning after harvesting bamboo shoots and in the afternoon but finish before 5pm to avoid affecting the newly sprouted bamboo shoots. In the dry season, it is necessary to keep moist by covering with straw or coconut fiber, rice husk ash, water hyacinth..., in the rainy season, it is necessary to make good drainage ditches and absolutely do not let bamboo shoots be flooded for more than 8 hours
