Autumn planting method and time

Planting time: okra is better to be sown in spring, generally planted in march to may. Planting method: Okra can be planted according to row spacing of 40-50cm and plant spacing of 35-40cm. When the plants grow to 45cm, the method of ring fertilization can be adopted, combined with intertillage and weeding. After the first harvest, topdressing can be applied again. In seedling stage, a small amount of water should be watered. In summer, water should be poured once every 7 days. In rainy season, timely drainage should be carried out. Before okra sealing, intertillage and soil cultivation should be carried out, leaves should be picked and branches should be trimmed in due time.

1. Okra planting time

1, okra is not cold, like warm, choose the appropriate planting time, is conducive to improving the emergence rate and survival rate of okra, thus improving the yield, because of different regions, climate temperature factors, its planting time will also be different.

2. Open field planting can be done from March to the end of August, but choosing the most suitable planting time according to regional climate characteristics has a great impact on okra yield.

3. Okra is recommended for spring sowing. It is generally planted in March in the south, April in coastal areas, early and mid-May in the north, and mid-April to May in North China.

II. Reasonable close planting

1, okra growth process on the light requirements are relatively high, planting in a shaded environment will affect its growth, so do not plant too dense, so easy to let the plants block each other's sunlight, resulting in poor plant growth, so we must reasonably control the planting density.

In order to strengthen ventilation and light transmission, the row spacing should be about 40-50cm when planting, and the plant spacing should be about 35-40cm, so as to ensure that the plants have sufficient growth space, thus improving the yield.

III. Reasonable water and fertilizer

1, okra root growth ability is relatively strong, it has a good ability to absorb nutrients, during the growth period needs a lot of nutrients.

2. When the plant grows to about 45cm, it can be topdressed by ring application method, which can be combined with intertillage and weeding. When harvesting the first batch of fruits, topdressing can be carried out appropriately. In order to prevent premature aging during the growth period, foliar fertilizer can be sprayed appropriately.

3. Okra is drought-tolerant. It can be watered in a small amount during the seedling stage. In summer, when it is high temperature, it can be watered every 7 days or so to keep the soil moist. Do not water it at noon during high temperature period to avoid damaging the roots. In rainy season, it is necessary to drain water in time to prevent rotten roots and dead seedlings.

IV. Reasonable branch spreading

1. In order to stabilize the soil and improve the lodging resistance of okra plants, it is necessary to cultivate the soil before okra sealing.

2. When the plant grows to about 30cm high, in order to promote the growth of branches, the new leaves at the top can be removed appropriately. If there are few branches, the yield will be affected.

3. During the plant growth period, the plant shape can be adjusted appropriately, and the branches that grow too dense, grow weakly, and grow excessively are cut off, which is conducive to controlling the number of branches and avoiding nutrient loss, thereby improving permeability and fruit bearing rate.

5. Timely harvest

1, okra early harvest easy to reduce okra yield, too late harvest will affect the quality of okra, so we must grasp the harvest time.

2. Generally, okra can be harvested about a week after flowering, and the fruit pod can grow to about 9cm. In order to prevent branch injury, scissors should be used instead of hand breaking.
