How to grow leek and how to store it

Planting method: to choose to plant in spring, summer and autumn, we should first select full and full seeds, put them in clear water dripped into nutrient solution for 3-5 days, choose humus soil, garden soil, pond mud and fine sand to keep soil wettability, and apply thin nitrogen fertilizer solution and farm fertilizer solution when leek grows to the second year. Storage method: fresh leeks can be wrapped in newspapers, or put in plastic bags, and the roots can be stored in a clear water basin.

First, the planting method of leek

1. Planting season

Leek can be planted in spring, summer and autumn, and the planting time in spring should be early rather than late. When planting in summer, the sowing amount should be about 1 × 3 larger than that in spring. If planted in autumn, the sowing amount should be twice as large as that in spring. Generally, it is mainly planted in autumn and spring, and it is also a season with high yield.

2. Select seeds

Before planting, you should first select full and full seeds, and then put them in the clear water dripped into the nutrient solution for 3-5 days. During this period, you should maintain a good ventilated environment, keep them in a shady place, and wait for about 5 days to germinate.

3. Prepare soil

When planting, the permeability of the soil must be ensured. During this period, humus soil, garden soil, pond mud and fine sand can be selected and mixed according to the ratio of 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,

4. Cultivation and planting

The germinated seeds can be sowed into the soil respectively, or they can be planted too densely, and then covered with a layer of thin soil. After planting, the soil is gently compacted and poured with water to keep the soil moist.

5. Seedling management

When the seedlings grow to 5cm, they should begin to reduce the amount of watering. When the seedlings reach 10cm, a small amount of cooked dung solution can be applied, while when the seedlings grow to 15cm, the watering times should be controlled and weeds next to the plants should be pulled out irregularly.

6. Fertilization and maintenance

Generally, when the leek grows to the second year, it needs to strengthen topdressing. In order to promote the growth of the coming year, a thin nitrogen fertilizer solution should be applied every 25 days or so, and a small amount of farm fertilizer solution can be added appropriately.

7. Post-planting management

When the new leaves of leek fall into the soil, it is necessary to keep the soil moist, observe the soil condition, and loosen the soil in time. It is necessary to increase fertilizer and water management after autumn. When the temperature drops, watering can be reduced appropriately to ensure that the soil is not dry.

Second, the storage method of leek

1. Newspaper method: all fresh leeks can be wrapped in newspaper bags and can be kept fresh for about 3 days.

2. Plastic bag method: you can put the leek into the plastic bag, then vacuum fold the plastic bag and seal the mouth, which can be kept fresh for 1-2 days.

3. Soak in water: the fresh and neat leeks can be tied up with string, and the roots of the leeks can be kept fresh for about 3-5 days.

4. Chinese cabbage leaves preservation method: Chinese cabbage leaves can be wrapped around leeks, wrapped and tied with rope, which can be kept fresh for about 3-5 days.
