Germination tips for Pterocarpus indicus (Narra) seeds:
Scarify the Seeds: Lightly scarify the seed coat using sandpaper or soak the seeds in hot water for 24 hours to improve germination.
Soak in Warm Water: Soak seeds in warm water (about 60°C or 140°F) for 12-24 hours before planting to soften the seed coat.
Warm and Humid Environment: Keep the seeds in a warm (25-30°C or 77-86°F) and humid environment to encourage sprouting.
Well-Draining Soil: Plant in well-draining, loose soil with good aeration to prevent waterlogging and promote root growth.
Indirect Light: Germinate seeds in a location with indirect light, as direct sunlight can harm young seedlings.
These tips should help ensure a higher germination rate for your Narra seeds!
