Planting time and method of millet

Millet is one of the most common grain in the north and south, and its planting area is very extensive. But the climate in the north and south is different, and the planting time is also different. The planting time and methods of millet are as follows:

1. Seed selection: select high-quality millet seeds in order to make millet high yield. High-quality seeds are generally uniform in size, golden in color, shiny and fragrant. If the seeds are of different sizes, dull and odorous, it is impossible to grow well.

two。 Before sowing, soak the seeds in warm water for one day to absorb water and soften the outer shell. A few days later, the seeds will sprout and sow in the seedling field.

3. Planting soil: millet seeds are adaptable and are generally planted in ploughed fields with fertile soil. Be sure to plough the soil before planting, apply enough fertilizer, and improve the soil if necessary. Then make sure that there is plenty of light and good irrigation.

4. Sowing method: millet seed is sown by sowing method. Spread it directly and evenly to the seedbed, then gently flatten the seeds into the soil with a plank. Pay attention to planting 5 kilograms per mu, and the seeds can not be buried.

5. Tending and maintenance: after the seeds are sown, it is necessary to manage the seedling stage well. Interseedling work should be carried out when the seedlings grow 5-6 leaves, weeding in the field should be carried out frequently, and irrigation water should be ensured in times of drought so as not to make it dehydrated for a long time.

Xiaomi is very adaptable and can be planted and grown well in both the south and the north. However, the sowing time is different in different regions, and the correct sowing time should be chosen according to the current climate.
