Conditions for Germination

| Jan 02, 2024

For the magic of germination to unfold, three essential factors must align: water, oxygen, and the right temperature. Water acts as the key that unlocks the dormant seed, initiating the metabolic processes crucial for growth. Oxygen is necessary for cellular respiration, enabling the seed to convert stored energy into usable forms. Temperature, too, plays a pivotal role, as seeds often have specific temperature requirements for germination.

For the discerning gardener; with our XXL “Jumbo” growing station, the sufficient size of 130 cm x 60 cm offers plenty of space for a large selection of seeds and cuttings. This means you never have to go without a plant variety again.

The “Jumbo” cultivation station is a robust construction that provides ideal protection for exotic and expensive plants in winter. The ventilated hood retains the most heat, reduces condensation and supports healthy growth.

The breeding station is delivered together with a heating mat (150W) including thermostat control (0 - 40°C) and floor sensor. The temperatures can be set between 0-40°C.

Jumbo heating mats produce heat from below. This supports rapid and vigorous growth of seedlings and cuttings.

Create the best possible growing conditions for your plants!

The energy-saving “FloraBooster 500” plant light illuminates your favourites with the full light spectrum all year round, even on the darkest winter days. This ensures healthy plant growth. The very low power consumption of just 6.5 watts with the same luminosity of a 60 watt light bulb (!) ensures great energy savings when lighting plants in the low-light season.

 

Heating Mats

If you are looking for more success in seed cultivation and germination, our "Sahara" heating mat for plants promises “warm feet” when growing. When germinating and rooting cuttings and young plants, the temperature in the root area is a decisive factor for your cultivation success. A heating mat ensures optimal conditions here. It has a thermostat that makes it easy to control the temperature. The heating mat "Sahara" is available in different sizes.

Soil warming cable

Soil heating cables bring heat exactly to where it is needed. It is particularly suitable for self-made propagators and seed beds. The flexible soil heating cable can be laid without problems according to your individual wishes. The cable is watertight. The thermostat is an optional extra for more accurate temperature control.
