What is the planting method of green radish?

Green radish refers to green-skinned radish, except for the part buried in the soil, the other parts are all green and taste crisp and sweet. So, what is the planting method of green radish?

1. Soil

The green radish is the best sandy loam soil with deep soil layer and loose soil, which has good performance of water conservation and fertilizer conservation. The suitable pH value of soil is 5.3-7. Dig deep into the soil and re-apply base fertilizer before sowing.

Second, sowing seeds

The sowing time of radish is generally related to the climate of the planting site, but most areas are sown in August and can be harvested at the end of October, but some will be a little later, and the general growth period and harvest period should be controlled before December. Sowing is generally in the way of strip sowing, choose to sow in overcast and rainy weather, the distance between each strip is about 60cm, evenly sow seeds, cover soil to cover seeds.

III. Field management

1. Fertilizer application

During the period from whitening to shoulder exposure, the human feces and urine were applied once, and the ternary compound fertilizer was applied again in the growing period. When topdressing, avoid excessive concentration and pouring near the root, so as not to burn the root and talk about the decay or hardening of the fleshy root.

two。 Watering

After emergence, radish has shallow roots, few lateral roots and weak drought resistance. When it is dry, it should be watered in time to keep the soil hydrated. With the growth of the plant, the amount of water gradually increased, especially in the period of fleshy root exuberant and fat, more attention should be paid to the lateral response of water. Insufficient water or uneven water supply will affect the normal growth of fleshy roots and reduce the yield and quality, but also prone to cracking or hollow. However, if there is too much water, it will also make the leaves grow too long, and even get sick. Drainage should be paid attention to in many seasons of Rain Water, so as to facilitate the deep development of the root system.

3. Timely intercropping

Proper shallow ploughing, weed removal and pest control are all essential field management work. In particular, insect pests have a great impact on yield, the main pests are aphids, Plutella xylostella, ape leaf insects and so on.

IV. Harvest

When the radish fleshy root is fully enlarged, it can be harvested. If the growth time is too long, hollow will occur. Winter radish generally has a yield of 3000kg to 4000kg per mu, and the high one can reach more than 6000 kg. The yield of spring radish and summer and autumn radish is lower, generally about 2000 kg per mu.

Green radish is rich in nutrition, which is similar to white radish planting. Because the root system of radish is well developed, base fertilizer must be applied before sowing.
