溫湯浸種法將干種子投入55℃～60℃溫水(shui)中(zhong)不(bu)斷(duan)攪拌，處(chu)理(li)約(yue)10分鐘，待水(shui)溫降到28℃～30℃，浸(jin)種4～6小時(shi)，淘洗干(gan)凈后進行(xing)催芽(ya)。

　　藥劑消毒法用(yong)0.1%的多菌靈(ling)鹽酸液浸種(zhong)1小時(shi)，清水沖(chong)洗(xi)后，再用(yong)清水浸種(zhong)4小時(shi)，即可浸種(zhong)催芽。

　　種膜劑處理法有些黃瓜種(zhong)子在出售時已經由制(zhi)種(zhong)單位(wei)用(yong)含(han)殺菌劑和多種(zhong)微量元素的種(zhong)膜(mo)(mo)進行(xing)了(le)處(chu)理(li)，用(yong)種(zhong)膜(mo)(mo)劑處(chu)理(li)有良好的殺菌效(xiao)果。經處(chu)理(li)的種(zhong)子可直接浸(jin)種(zhong)催芽，也可直播。

　　種(zhong)(zhong)子(zi)(zi)經(jing)消毒處理后，撈出(chu)清(qing)洗一遍(bian)，去水甩(shuai)干，用布包好(hao)，置于(yu)27℃～30℃下(xia)催芽(ya)(ya)(ya)，催芽(ya)(ya)(ya)過程(cheng)中要常翻動種(zhong)(zhong)子(zi)(zi)，使種(zhong)(zhong)子(zi)(zi)受溫均勻(yun)，經(jing)24小時(shi)左(zuo)右便(bian)開(kai)始出(chu)芽(ya)(ya)(ya)，種(zhong)(zhong)子(zi)(zi)露(lu)出(chu)根尖(jian)時(shi)，溫度(du)可適當降低，維持22℃～26℃，經(jing)兩天左(zuo)右可以出(chu)齊。如在(zai)發芽(ya)(ya)(ya)后恰遇(yu)陰天不能(neng)播種(zhong)(zhong)，則(ze)可用濕毛(mao)巾將種(zhong)(zhong)子(zi)(zi)包好(hao)放在(zai)冷涼處10℃左(zuo)右，抑(yi)制幼(you)芽(ya)(ya)(ya)繼續生長，這種(zhong)(zhong)做法(fa)叫“蹲芽(ya)(ya)(ya)”。
