T/QHNX 037-2023
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the seedling-raising environment, facilities and equipment, preliminary preparations, seedling-raising techniques, seedling standard, packaging, labeling, transportation, and production archives for the intensive seedling production of solanaceous vegetables (tomatoes, eggplants, and chili peppers) in substrate trays. This document is applicable to the technology of intensive seedling production of solanaceous vegetables in substrate trays. Main technical contents: 7.1 Variety selection: Select high-yielding, disease-resistant, stress-resistant, and good-quality varieties. The seed quality meets the requirements of GB 16715.3. 7.2 Sowing period: Determine the sowing period based on the transplanting period. 7.3 Substrate filling: Mix the substrate evenly and fill the trays. The water content should be controlled at 65% to 70%. 7.4 Sowing: Use manual or mechanical sowing methods. Sow one seed per hole, with a sowing depth of 0.5 cm. After sowing, cover the substrate, level it, and water it. 7.5 Germination: Place the trays in the germination chamber and arrange them on the shelves of the germination rack. Control the temperature at 25°C to 30°C and the humidity at 90% to 95%. When 60% of the seedlings have emerged, place them in the protected seedbeds in a timely manner. 7.6 Seedling management 7.7 Pest and disease control
