When is the honeysuckle usually planted? Why is fertilization important?

Honeysuckle is a kind of medicine commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine, which has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxification. Many people like to soak a cup of honeysuckle tea when they have a sore throat or get angry. The effect is remarkable. Because of the large amount of use, planting honeysuckle has become a wealth industry. Many farmers and friends plant honeysuckle. Honeysuckle has strong adaptability to the land and environment. When do honeysuckle usually grow? Why is fertilization important?

When is the honeysuckle usually planted?

The transition between spring and summer from late March to mid-May is the best time to plant potted honeysuckle in late spring and early summer, because seeds germinate more easily during this period, which improves the success rate of planting.

The time of the trunk-shaped four seasons honeysuckle will be different. In the cold places in the north, it is the best time to grow honeysuckle from September to before freezing. Of course, other periods of time can also be planted, but at other times, there will be a series of problems, such as longer slow seedling time, shorter florescence, slower growth and a certain probability of mortality.

Second, why is it important to plant and fertilize honeysuckle?

Honeysuckle as a kind of medicine. The market demand is large, and the wild supply is seriously insufficient, so most of them are cultivated artificially. In order to promote yield, fertilization is one of the most important ways to increase yield, of course, a large amount of fertilizer on the one hand greatly promote the growth and development of honeysuckle, but also have a great impact on the soil; and the soil is affected, which will affect the growth of honeysuckle.

Fertilization can promote or inhibit the secondary metabolism of Flos Lonicerae by affecting the changes of soil environmental conditions, which can increase the content of effective components of medicinal materials; at the same time, fertilization can increase the resistance of Flos Lonicerae and prevent diseases and insect pests. Honeysuckle can be harvested year after year, but balanced application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is required in the early growth stage to promote flowering and fruiting and improve product quality. more nitrogen fertilizer can be used in spring, phosphorus and potash fertilizer should be used in summer, and soil fertilizer can be used in autumn and winter.

The function of nitrogen fertilizer is to promote growth and make the leaves greener, while nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can all promote flower bud differentiation, and its effect is that nitrogen fertilizer is the best, phosphorus fertilizer is the second, potassium fertilizer is the worst. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are necessary for plant growth and are in high demand, so when planting honeysuckle, these three fertilizers must be sufficient.

Nitrogen fertilizer can effectively promote the growth of leaves, seedlings, roots and flowers, thus effectively increase the yield of planting honeysuckle, but the application of more nitrogen fertilizer or inappropriate proportion will have obvious reaction to the growth of honeysuckle. It will reduce the content of chlorogenic acid in Flos Lonicerae.

Phosphate fertilizer can not only effectively promote the root growth of honeysuckle, but also increase the nutrition range of fertilizer, but also improve the drought tolerance of honeysuckle and increase the content of chlorogenic acid.
