Shall we plant the seed immediately after making potting mix or moisten the mix and sowsees after a day or two?
Second question
What else to use if both cocopeat and peat moss are not available.
My potting mix gets compacted after I sow seeds and water them .
After that no germination occurs please help 😭😭
Dear Ma'am,
Thank you for your kind query.
Ma'am, we can immediately use after preparation of potting mix or potting soil.
Second - soil should be loose and porus for better germination.
If cocopeat and peat moss not available then we can use leaf mould also.
Thank you

I have tried to 2 ways to germinate the seeds. 1is by using wet tissue paper and keeping it for 3-4 days.
2 is by using only coco pit in a seedling tray for 3-4 days. My results were not expected by these. So my question is m I doing wrong or your way would give me expected results?
Dear Ma'am,
Thank you for your kind query.
Seed germination depends one some major factors and if all of them meet properly then germination would be more accurate.
Please try once. It will definitely help.
Thank you
@@organicgardening thank u soo much for your quick reply. I will try and update u..keep smiling.

Can I germinate the seed of Gloxenia in this last july or first Aug of week?

@@organicgardening thank you
Hello sir, do we need to sterilize the medium..?!
Dear Daniel Pablo,
Thank you for you kind query.
If earlier there was a problem in soil then we can sterilize it.
Otherwise normally we can use it frequently after adding some more compost
Thank you
I had planted bhindi seeds multiple times but either they don't germinate or grow into tall seedlings which eventually die out.
Please tell where could be the problem.
I had used 12 "& 15" grow bags and kept them in sun?
Dear Ma'am,
thank you for your kind query.
seed germination depends on many factors. if seedlings are going tall then it is due to improper sunlight. please keep seedlings in bright area after germination and use loose and poris soil.
thank you
@@organicgardening thank you for such a prompt reply.
Even my tomato seeds haven't germinated even after almost three weeks....
Is it absolutely essential to add cocopeat
@@upmabatra3611 seeds need a light soil mix for proper germination instead of compact soil (heavy, stuck together soil particles) so just ensure u have a light soil which can retain enough moisture for proper seed germination. U can use leaf mould or peat moss for that instead of cocopeat.
Will it work for herbs germination?
Yes, definitely.
Thank you
Sir I planted some mint leaves in my pot yesterday , they are now like dead or fallen down, is it okay or there's some problem
Dear sir,
Thank you for your kind query.
Sir, it may be normal. Please try to keep more than two nods below to the soil and cutting length should not be more.
Please try this and all will be OK.
Thank you
@@organicgardening also sir I bought a pack of coriander seeds from a fertilizer and seed shop but they are not red in colour and look like normal coriander seed we get at ration shops . Are they ok to be potted
Dear@@abhaysharma3437 sir,
Thank you for your kind query.
Sir, it may be normal. Many seed producing companies treat seeds for prevention of diseases and after they looks in different colours.
Thank you
Thanks alot dont i need to add soil ? plz reply
Dear sir,
Thank you for your kind query.
Sir, we can skip soil for seed germination process and as per our experience it also help to grow and make root system more strong and our seedling not affected by dumping off also.
So please try this is really good.
Thank you

by using cocco peat how we assess plant need water or not. any tip please
Dear sir,
if it getting dry from upper side then we can water it again.
thank you
@@organicgardening but cocco peat absorbs water below the upper surface of soil
sir can we use organic compost and vermi compost at the same time? and then what will be the ratio?
Dear sir,
Thank you for your kind query.
Sir, for seedling we should use any one of them as it required very less ration of nutrients. It help plant to get proper diet after germination.
We can use equal amount as we explain in video.
Thankyou
@@organicgardening ok. Thank you 😊
Nice info
Thank you and most welcome

❤️🥰
I am adding these 3 components , the seeds germinate but aftr about 2 inches the saplings become leggy n fall off.... The sapling dies 😞😞😞
Well explained . However I'm facing the same issue of saplings being 2 inch lenghty and falls off without further growth . What could be the cause ?. Would you mind explain the reason . Thanks
if seedlings are not growing and wilting down after 2 or 3 inch growth then it may be due to most common cause of damping-off.
it is like a fungus which grow due to high moisture lack of drainage of soil.
recommend - we should always water the seedling with foliage and try to do at morning time.
thank you
@@organicgardening thank u
Sir dahlia soil 80percent soil and 20 percent of vermi compost

Thank you
@@organicgardening the seedlings are about 3 inches tall.. One after other seedlings is folding at stem and falling and dying. Half of them died.. It's been 10 days since I have sown.
Dear@@navyaa4933 ma'am,
Thank you for your kind information.
Ma'am, if seedlings are too long after germination and falling down then it may be damping off problem.
It happens due to lack of sunlight and high moisture.
Please keep new seedlings in proper sunlight and reduce moisture.
Thank you
