How to grow Dutch beans?

Dutch bean is not produced in the Netherlands, but because the Dutch brought it to China, so it is called Dutch bean, Dutch bean tender pods green fragrance, delicious nutrition. So, how to grow Dutch beans?

1. Land selection and preparation

The growth ability of Dutch bean is relatively strong, there is no great requirement for the soil, and it can grow normally on all kinds of soil, but we should pay attention to the PH value of the soil. Dutch beans cannot grow in acidic soil. If the soil is strongly acidic, it is necessary to sprinkle lime in the soil to neutralize the acidity, and the rotation of Dutch beans should be carried out for at least 4 years, otherwise the disease and insect pests will be serious, and the soil should be prepared in time after selecting a good site. Turn the soft soil deeply to improve the soil permeability, and then apply appropriate amount of base fertilizer, which is mainly farm manure, adding appropriate amount of calcium superphosphate and potassium chloride to make the flat bed, which is convenient for sowing and late harvest management.

2. Seed selection and soaking

It is necessary to do a good job in seed selection before sowing, put the seeds in salt water, remove the floating dried seeds and seeds of diseases and insect pests, do a good job of accelerating germination, soak the seeds in water for 5 hours, put them in a suitable environment to promote germination, when planting white dew buds, and then put them in a low temperature environment of 1 degree for about half a month, mix the seeds with rhizobium, increase the number of plant nodules, and improve the growth rate of stems and leaves and the rate of flowering and fruiting. To achieve the purpose of increasing production, sow seeds in time after a series of measures, reasonably control water and fertilizer, and promote seed germination and emergence.

3. Field management

After sowing, we should loosen the soil in time, raise the soil temperature, promote the seeds to take root and sprout, and ensure the healthy growth of seedlings. If sowing in autumn, then carry out soil cultivation measures before winter, do a good job of heat preservation through the winter, and before Dutch beans bloom, nitrogen fertilizer should be applied once to promote plant growth, and together with loose soil moisture conservation work, when pods begin, increase the frequency of watering and the proportion of potassium and phosphorus in fertilizer. Ensure that the soil is in a moist state and provide sufficient water for the development of pods. When the plant grows to about 35 cm, it sets up to draw vines to ensure the healthy growth of the plant.

4. Timely harvest

The growing season of Dutch beans is quite different from that of other legume vegetables, so there is a certain gap in the time of harvesting. When planting in June, because the temperature is relatively high, the growth ability of Dutch beans is strengthened, and the growing period only takes about two weeks. But on the contrary, in winter, the low temperature environment is not suitable for the growth of Dutch beans, so the growing period takes about a month. Therefore, our harvest time depends on the planting time, and there is no specific harvest time, which needs to be mastered at your discretion.

The above is the planting method of Dutch beans arranged by Xiaobian. I hope I can help you!
