How to plant garlic seedlings in winter

The climate is cold in winter, so you need to pay more attention to growing vegetables, so how to grow garlic seedlings in winter?

First, prepare before sowing

Select suitable varieties, prepare the soil before sowing, and apply base fertilizer.

1. Seed selection

Select excellent varieties with high yield and good adaptability for planting.

2. Land preparation

Ploughing the land and opening the "three ditches" in separate boxes can be done.

3. Fertilization

It is necessary to apply sufficient fertilizer at one time. The base fertilizer is generally 100 kilograms of rotten soil residue manure, 20 kilograms of urea, 50 kilograms of phosphate fertilizer, 15 kilograms of potash fertilizer or 50 kilograms of high-quality three-element compound fertilizer.

Second, flushing seedlings

After the garlic seedlings grow, rinse the seedlings.

Water and flush the seedlings about a week later. Before raising garlic seedlings, if the ground of the garlic seedling field hardens, it should be watered gently. If the soil moisture is too high on a rainy day, it should be drained in time to prevent garlic from affecting the normal growth of garlic before its mother spoils.

III. Field management

Field management such as watering, film mulching, loose soil and so on were carried out during seedling cultivation.

1. Watering

Watering according to the moisture content of the soil can be watered once to increase the moisture of the soil.

Garlic loves water. Lack of water can lead to withered and yellow pointed leaves and, in severe cases, death. However, drip irrigation with small water should be used when watering to prevent the recurrence of root rot caused by too much water. Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job of drainage after rain and water properly according to the growth of garlic.

2. Film mulching

The real land is not covered with plastic film and wants to cover a layer of weeds or feces before freezing to ensure the safety of garlic seedlings through the winter. Overwintering should ensure that the film is intact and prevent the wind from blowing.

3. Loose soil

Garlic seedling raising stage is the key period of field management. there is no root protection in garlic seedling field, so it is necessary to loosen soil and promote the development of garlic seedling root system.

4. Fertilization

Garlic needs more nutrition to grow, so it is important to apply fertilizer in winter. When the seedlings grow to about 3 leaves, it is necessary to apply fertilizer in time. If the nutrition is insufficient, the garlic is prone to leaf yellowing and premature senescence. After sowing for about half a month, topdressing should be applied appropriately according to the nutritional requirements of garlic growth.

IV. Other

In order to help garlic seedlings grow smoothly, it is necessary to break the membrane and clear the ditch to loosen the soil in time.

1. Rupture of membrane

Garlic begins to sprout about a week after sowing, although most seedlings can grow through mulch. However, in order to help all the garlic seedlings break the membrane smoothly, I can destroy the broken membrane of the garlic seedlings in time when the garlic seedlings break the membrane, so as to prevent the garlic seedlings from breaking the membrane for too long, causing damage to the stems of the garlic seedlings and affecting the growth of the garlic seedlings.

When the garlic film breaks, a small hole can be made in each seedling hole to ensure the success of the garlic film rupture. Do not damage the film when damaging the film, otherwise the film will lose its effect. Then it should be checked regularly every day to prevent the seedling membrane from breaking and the seedling death.

2. Clear the ditch and loosen the soil

The humidity of garlic field should not be too high, and the suitable range of garlic should be ensured. Too much water in the field can easily lead to garlic root rot, cause diseases and insect pests and reduce yield. Therefore, garlic overwintering, it is necessary to timely clean up garlic ditches, soft soil, to prevent soil water loss, affecting the growth of garlic. Improve soil structure, increase soil temperature and promote garlic root growth. When cleaning the sewers, make sure each sewer is connected to prevent the water from coagulating the garlic.
