Maka is a kind of medicinal material with great medicinal value. Because of its remarkable efficacy, Maka is a very expensive drug. But the medicine of Maka is relatively strong, so minors can't take it casually. Maka is mainly planted near Yulong Snow Mountain in Yunnan Province, China. Because of the special growth environment and difficult management, it is extremely precious.

Maka planting conditions

1. Air temperature: Maka has a very special requirement for air temperature, and the higher the temperature difference is, the more favorable it is for its growth, so growers must overcome the bad climate, which is one of the reasons why it is expensive.

2. Altitude: most of its growth is above 3000 meters above sea level. Due to the limitations of this environment, the yield of Maka is very low. People who live in the plains need to deal with altitude sickness.

3. Soil quality: the land grown in Maka had better be sandy land with good drainage, and the quality is better if it is planted in acid, and it is better if it is close to the lake and can fully absorb water.

Maka planting technology and management method

1. Land: Maka is indeed very particular about the environmental requirements, so after selecting the land according to its planting conditions, it is necessary to start soil preparation. Generally speaking, when we are ploughing the land, it is better to sprinkle farm manure as base fertilizer in advance.

2. Seedling management: in general, it is better for Maka to choose from May to June, and the interval of seedling planting is 20 cm. Seedlings need to maintain sufficient moisture, otherwise it will affect the survival rate of seedlings.

3. Fertilization: the seedlings will grow rapidly after survival, at this time we can fertilize, it is better to use organic compound fertilizer, of course, we also advocate the use of farm manure.

4. Harvest: Maka can be harvested around November to December. We must pay attention to the harvested Maka, which must be fully dried in the sun to remove moisture, and vacuum packaging should be used to place it in a relatively dry and cool place.

Maka is not suitable for home planting because of its high requirements on the environment and planting technology. If you can buy a pure black maka to take, the effect is indeed more obvious. At present, many merchants on the market sell Marka with inferior quality, we must open our eyes to buy, it is best to go to a more well-known brand store to buy.
