The seedling method of NFT hydroponic system usually includes the following steps:
Choose healthy seeds: First, choose healthy lettuce seeds to make sure they are of good quality and free from pests and diseases.
Sowing: Sow the selected seeds evenly in the seedling tray or petri dish in the required number. Each seed should have enough space to grow.
Provide proper humidity and temperature: After sowing, keep the soil or medium in the seedling tray or petri dish at the proper humidity and temperature, which is beneficial to the germination and growth of the seeds.
Germination and growth: After the seeds germinate, wait for the seedlings to develop a certain root system and leaves to ensure that the seedlings are strong enough and suitable for transplanting.
Seedling division: When the seedlings grow to a suitable size, they can be carefully removed and transferred to the cultivation tanks in the NFT hydroponic system to ensure that the root system of each seedling is intact.
Transplanting and adjustment: Carefully transplant the divided seedlings into the NFT hydroponic system, and adjust parameters such as water level, nutrient concentration, and water temperature in the water tank as needed to promote the root growth of the seedlings and adapt to the hydroponic environment.
Monitor growth: Once you have finished dividing and transplanting seedlings, regularly check the growth of your seedlings to ensure they are growing healthily in your NFT hydroponic system.
Through the above steps, the seeds can be effectively cultivated into strong seedlings, and the seedlings can be successfully divided and transplanted into the NFT hydroponic system, creating good conditions for the rapid growth and abundant harvest of lettuce.
