Peanut sprouts are a new type of pollution-free vegetable that is very popular in the market. Many people want to grow some of them themselves, but how should peanut sprouts be grown? The editor here tells you that peanut sprouts can be grown in foam boxes. I will write down the specific planting method later, and friends who want to grow them can learn from it.

How to grow peanut sprouts

1. Seeds and sites for planting peanut sprouts

When planting peanut sprouts, both seeds and sites are important. When choosing seeds, you should choose those with full grains and uniform size, and no damage on the surface, and they must be new seeds produced that year. The site for planting peanut sprouts has high requirements for temperature and humidity. It does not need sunlight, but it must have good air permeability.

2. Selection of foam boxes for growing peanut sprouts

The foam box used to grow peanut sprouts can be of any size, but its height should be around 25 centimeters, and the bottom of the foam box should be flat and have small holes for drainage and ventilation.

3. Planting of peanut sprouts

Wash the good seeds in water, remove the floating seeds, take out the seeds and soak them in warm water for 20 hours, change the water in the middle, and then put a layer of newspaper on the bottom of the foam box, and then spread three centimeters of sand, and sprinkle the seeds on the surface of the sand. After spreading, cover the box, and then cover it with a layer of black plastic cloth, and keep the temperature in the box between 23 and 28 degrees. The most important point is to spray water two to three times a day.

4. Management of peanut sprouts

Three days after the peanuts are planted, their seeds will grow small sprouts about one centimeter long. At this time, the seeds that do not sprout should be removed. In the summer, you should pay attention to spraying water to cool down, and in the winter, you should pay attention to keeping warm. In addition, when it is growing vigorously, the number of times of spraying water should be increased every day. Generally, it can be harvested after seven to ten days.
