The common pathogens on cucumber seeds include pathogens such as wilt, anthrax, blight, and keratoses. Therefore, cucumber seeds should be surface-sterilized before germination. The main methods are the following three:

1. Warm soup soaking method. The dry seeds were put into 55-60°C warm water and stirred continuously for about 10 minutes until the water temperature dropped to 28°C-30°C, soaking for 4-6 hours, washing and cleaning.

2. Pharmacy disinfection method. With 0.1% carbendazim hydrochloric acid solution soaked for 1 hour, rinse with water, and then soaked in fresh water for 4 hours, you can soak germination.

3. Membrane treatment method. Some cucumber seeds have already been treated by the seed production unit with a seed film containing fungicides and various trace elements at the time of sale. Treatment with a seed film has a good bactericidal effect. Treated seeds can be directly soaked in germination or live.

After the cucumber seeds are sterilized, they are washed and washed again, and the water is sprayed off, wrapped in a cloth and placed under a condition of 27°C to 30°C for germination. During the germination process, the seeds are often turned so that the seeds are evenly heated. After about 24 hours, the buds begin to sprout. When the seeds expose the root tips, the temperature can be appropriately reduced, and the temperature can be maintained between 22°C and 26°C. After about two days, the seeds can be released. If the seedlings do not sow in the cloudy days after germination, then the wet seeds can be wrapped in a cool place (about 10°C) to prevent the shoots from continuing to grow. This practice is called "sprouts."
