Germination tips for Dalbergia sissoo (Indian rosewood) seeds:
- Pre-Soaking – Soak seeds in warm water (around 40°C) for 24 hours to soften the seed coat.
- No Scarification Needed – Unlike some species, D. sissoo seeds generally germinate well without scarification.
- Well-Draining Soil – Use sandy or loamy soil with good drainage to prevent root rot.
- Warm Temperature – Maintain a temperature range of 25-30°C for optimal sprouting.
- Consistent Moisture – Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering.
Germination typically occurs within 1-3 weeks. 🌱
