1. Mix 2 kg salt in 10 litres water and throw an egg or potato in it to check whether it sinks or not. If the egg / potato starts floating then stop mixing the salt. Dip the seeds in the slated water before sowing and sort out good seeds out of it. Soak the seeds in 20 litres of Beejamrit for 12 hours and then dry them in shade. After this seeds are ready for sowing.
