Pot cultivation technique of Perilla how to plant perilla seeds

Perilla is a kind of food produced in China, which is widely distributed in our country. It has a wide range of edible value and uses, so it is loved by people. Generally speaking, the survival rate after planting is very high, so many people will plant some in the potted plants at home, and they can pick some at any time when they want to eat.

Pot cultivation technique of Perilla

1. Put appropriate amount of perilla seeds in a plastic cup and soak the seeds in clean water for about 4 hours.

2. Use the time of soaking seeds to prepare the flowerpot and the soil. The flowerpot should be about 20 cm in diameter, and there must be drainage holes at the bottom. The soil can be made from 8 parts of cooked vegetable garden soil, 1 part of mature organic fertilizer, 0.5 parts of compound fertilizer and a small amount of calcium superphosphate.

3. Put the mixed soil into a flowerpot, smooth the surface, spread the soaked seeds evenly on the soil surface, and then spread a thin layer of fine soil, the thickness of this layer of fine soil can slightly cover the seeds, not too thick.

4. Use a cloth of the right size and can absorb water, soak it with water and cover it with fine soil. Spray water 6 to 8 times a day to keep it moist. It will germinate in about 12 days. Remove the wet cloth in time after germination.

5. Next, we should pay attention to spray some water every day to maintain the soil moisture, but also pay attention to maintain good light, about 26 days of growth can be planted in pots.

6. the flowerpots and soil used for planting in separate pots are the same as when raising seedlings. Select relatively strong seedlings and plant one plant in each flowerpot. Remember to water once after planting. Water must be watered thoroughly for the first time, so that it is easier to survive.

7. Next, as long as you pay attention to watering and lighting, perilla can thrive. Keep in mind that although perilla is heat-resistant, it should also pay attention to proper sunshade in hot weather.

How to plant perilla seeds

Seedling transplanting: on the whole seedling border, open a shallow ditch horizontally according to the row spacing of 15-20 cm, mix the seeds with fire soil ash before sowing, and spread them evenly into the ditch, about 1 kg of seeds per 667 square meters, cover with a layer of thin soil after sowing, cover with strict seeds, cover the border with a layer of plastic film or rice straw, and remove the mulch after the seedlings are unearthed. When the seedling height is 5 cm, keep the plant spacing 3-5 cm. When the seedling height is 10-15 cm, it can be planted out of the nursery when it has 4 pairs of true leaves. Planting should be carried out in a cloudy or sunny afternoon, and the seedling bed should be watered one day before the seedling, so that the roots can take soil and not hurt the roots. To plant along with planting, dig holes according to the row spacing of 25 cm × 30 cm on the finished border bed, and the diameter and depth of the hole are about 10 cm each. In the hole, an appropriate amount of fire-soil ash is applied and mixed evenly with the subsoil, and then 2-3 strong seedlings are planted in each hole, and the finished products are shaped, covered with soil and watered. About 10,000 seedlings are needed for every 667 square meters.

The living habits of Perilla frutescens

1. Perilla has strong adaptability, but it is not cold-resistant, so it is suitable to be cultivated in warm areas, but it is difficult to cultivate successfully in cold areas. Because the perilla likes to be warm, the most suitable sowing time in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River is April, and the sowing time in other areas can refer to the local climate characteristics.

2. Perilla is not strict on soil, either sandy loam or clay loam can be cultivated, as long as the fertile soil with good drainage can thrive. Wrinkled leaf perilla also likes the sunny or semi-sunny environment, so indoor potted perilla is best placed on the balcony to ensure that the average daily light time is not less than 4 hours.

Perilla fertilizer and water management

Summer is the peak growth period of perilla, the average number of branches of perilla is 25-30, the number of leaves is 300 ^-400, and the number of flowers is as many as 3 500, so it is necessary to have sufficient water in the peak growth period and topdressing fast-acting fertilizer for 2-3 times. combined with leaves and spraying nutrient solution. If the young leaves are harvested and eaten, they can be picked at any time as long as the leaves grow to a certain size, and the tips that have undergone flower bud differentiation can be removed at any time, so that they do not bloom and maintain the exuberant growth of stems and leaves. For ornamental purposes, some stems and leaves should be removed properly to reduce the consumption of nutrients.

Perilla pot technology is very simple, in the selection of better quality, which is conducive to the survival rate in the later stage. If the planting scale is large, it is necessary to make some preparations for fertile land. In the later stage of planting, we should also do a good job in fertilizer and water management, so as to ensure its growth.
