How to raise Salvia miltiorrhiza

1. Soil selection

Choose sandy soil with sufficient nutrients, and the thickness of the soil must be more than 30 cm.

2. Temperature requirements

Winter can tolerate a low temperature of minus 2 degrees, so move it indoors to avoid frostbite; if the summer temperature is too high, it is also very disadvantageous to plants, so put it in a place with good air circulation as far as possible.

3. Water demand

The need for watering can be judged according to the state of the soil. If the upper layer of the soil is completely dry, it is proved that it should be watered and watered enough at once until the outlet is discharged, but it should be reduced in summer. The temperature is already high in summer, and if the soil is moist for a long time, it is easy to cause plant diseases.

4. Application of fertilizer

The base fertilizer should be applied before planting, and once the root has grown well, the fertilizer should be applied once the flower has just bloomed. The phenomenon of stagnant water should not occur after fertilization. Try to reduce fertilization or simply suspend fertilization on cloudy and rainy days.
