Points for attention in planting "Diamond in Grass" Artemisia argyi

Moxa grass, also known as Bingtai, Artemisia argyi, Artemisia argyi, Herbal Medicine and so on, is a common Chinese herbal medicine with a wide range of application and high medicinal value. So, what are the precautions for moxa grass planting? Let's get to know it together.

1. Choose a place

The growth of moxa grass has a certain relationship with the topography, generally speaking, the adaptability of moxa grass is strong, but it can not often accumulate water, so when choosing topography, we should try to choose flat or conducive to drainage topography, generally do not consider potholed terrain, but there must be sufficient water around, in order to let moxa grass reproduce better and faster, so the soil chooses saturated soil as much as possible.

2. Reproduction

There are two ways of reproduction of Artemisia argyi, one is sexual reproduction and the other is asexual reproduction, sexual reproduction should pay attention to the treatment of the seeds before sowing, and as far as possible, the seeds should be germinated in an artificially created environment, and then sown, otherwise direct sowing is generally very rare, and the growth rate is very slow, so the most commonly used way of planting is asexual reproduction. By digging new tubers from the old wormwood for transplanting, it grows fast, but be careful not to damage the main parts when digging tubers, or suffer heavy losses.

3. Fertilization

Moxa grass should have a good base fertilizer before planting. We can use rotten fertilizer or animal manure. Turn these fertilizers into the soil and then make ridges and ridges, waiting for planting. The moxa grass that survived after transplanting needs a large-scale fertilization after ten days. In order to improve the growth rate of Artemisia argyi, we usually use urea, and we need a fertilization when it grows to 50 or 60 centimeters. Urea is also used this time, but the original way of fertilization is to be sprayed into the water. After the moxa grass is harvested and enters a dormant period, it is necessary to apply some farm manure and organic fertilizer as base fertilizer, and then wait for growth next year.

4. Moisture

It is best to plant moxa grass in such a shape that is low around and high in the middle, so that it will be more convenient to manage moisture. Of course, if this is not the case, then it will be sloping, so that it can be well drained when Rain Water is more abundant. When it is relatively dry, it should also be watered. When Ai Caoha is short, sprinkler irrigation is usually used. When Artemisia argyi grows to one meter, it needs to change the way of irrigation and use flood irrigation, otherwise it will be broken.

5. Density

When planting, you must transplant according to the scientific density, because Artemisia argyi grows to a certain period of time, it will automatically reproduce and grow new seedlings, and it is continuous, so it is generally 30 to 40 centimeters apart when planting. In this way, it has enough room for reproduction and can carry out photosynthesis well, grow faster, and reduce the occurrence of some diseases.

6. Harvest

Moxa harvest can be divided into several times, first of all, the harvest will be relatively fast, and then an appropriate amount of fertilizer will be applied to promote growth, so that it can be harvested when it grows to a certain height, and finally, when it comes to November, the growth of moxa grass will be very slow. Generally, when you enter the dormancy period, you must remember to add some fertilizer to replenish your fertility, and at the same time, you must let the soil contain a certain amount of water to provide nutrients for the growth of moxa grass in the second year.

The above are the matters needing attention in the planting of moxa grass. I hope it can help all the growers.
