Watching seeds germinate is a great activity for kids, especially when the seeds develop quickly. Alfalfa is an easy-to-grow plant that can sprout within one week. For a chance to observe the seeds grow in the soil, sprinkle a few alfalfa seedlings on a sheet of damp paper towel.
What you'll need
A small packet of Alfalfa seeds (about 1.5g).
A small or small dish, or a saucer
Three paper towels
an air mister, or بذرة البرسيم a small water Jug
How to Grow:
Take 3 pieces of paper towel, then place them on top of one another flat on a table.
Drain the water from the plate. The paper towel should be damp, but the seeds should not be floating in the water.
Sprinkle the seeds evenly on the towel.
To prevent the paper towel from drying out, place it on a sunny windowill filled with water. For wetting seeds, you can use a spray bottle or mister. Add water into the saucer using either a cup or a small jug.
Every day, check your seeds to see how they're growing.
Troubleshooting
Alfalfa seeds are simple to grow and should begin to germinate in 2-6 days. If the seeds don't germinate within this time frame, here are a few possibilities of what could have gone wrong:
Too dry Seeds require water in order to develop. Alfalfa seeds soak about own weight of water before germinating, making them look like they are swollen. Seeds that are too dry are not able to sprout. Incorporate more water into the plate until the seeds are wet but not floating. It is also possible to soak the seeds overnight. But be sure to rinse them thoroughly prior to transferring them onto a paper towel.
Too moist: Seeds that are too moist could cause their roots and sprouts to decay before they are able to grow. It's also possible that mould may begin to develop on the seeds. Although it's fine for the paper towel and seeds to remain damp but they shouldn't submerge in water. The excess water should be removed from the plate each when you water or mist the seeds.
Too hot or cold: The best temperature for alfalfa to grow is 20-25 degrees Celsius. If you're planting your seeds indoors in winter, place them in a cool area. It is possible that you will need to regularly water your seeds if you grow them in very hot temperatures. They'll dry out more quickly.
