Planting method of Edible Lily

Lily in our life not only everywhere lily, but also often seen in our meals edible lily, lily has a lot of varieties and varieties, and edible lily has lung cough, calm mind, laxative anti-cancer and other effects. The following is an introduction to the cultivation method of edible lily.

1. Cultivation technology of edible lily

1. Land selection and preparation

Edible lily should be planted on plots with high terrain, sunny, good drainage and irrigation conditions, deep soil layer and medium fertility. Edible lily can not be planted in successive crops, nor can it be rotated with onions and garlic crops. It is better to use leguminous or gramineous crops as the previous crop. Before planting, 2500 - 3000 kg of decomposed organic fertilizer and 25 kg of calcium superphosphate should be applied per mu as base fertilizer, and 0.6 kg of 50% of the farmland should be turned into soil at the same time for soil disinfection. Then deep turn 25 - 30 cm. The soil preparation should make the basal fertilizer and soil fully mixed, so as to fully improve the physical and chemical properties of the soil, and create good conditions for the root development and bulb expansion of edible lily.

2. Selection of Seed Bulbs

The reproduction coefficient of edible lily is low and the seed quantity is large. Planting edible lily to dragon bud lily quality is the best, this variety scale hypertrophy, shaped like dragon tooth, white tender, no bitterness, high price, good market. When introducing edible lily species, we must choose white, large scales, no pockmarks, no bitter seed balls. Generally, the economic benefit of planting medium bulbs of 50~60 g is the best. About 150 to 200 kilograms of seed balls are needed per mu.

3. Seeding at the right time and topping

Edible lily is generally sown in late September to early October. After sowing, seedlings will not begin to emerge until early March of the following year. In hilly areas, the sowing specification is generally 40 cm ×30 cm in row spacing, ensuring that the population density per mu is above 6000 plants. After sowing, straw or leaves must be covered to keep moisture, keep the plot dry, and there must be no accumulated water in the field.

Edible lily plants have grown more than 60 leaves, the average daily temperature does not exceed 23℃ when the top of the core. The yield of topping is higher than that of non-topping, and the yield of topping at right time is higher than that of topping late. Seedling height 30---35 cm, to timely top, pick the head, to promote nutrient concentration to the bulb delivery.

4. Field management and fertilization

Edible lily should be covered with plastic film after sowing. The experiment showed that covering edible lily with film for 30~40 days in early spring could shorten the emergence period of edible lily by 7~15 days and increase yield by 12%. In order to prevent the green leaves of edible lily from dying early in late June and prolong the life of functional leaves of edible lily, foliar fertilizer should be applied once with 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate and 0.3%~0.5% urea mixture when bulb expansion of edible lily slows down in late June. In the first ten days of July, 10 kg of advanced compound fertilizer should be sprayed with 50 kg of foliar fertilizer per mu to prevent premature aging.

5. pest control and harvesting

Within 1~2 days after planting edible lily, 50~80 grams of acetochlor should be sprayed per mu to prevent weeds from growing. The main diseases and insect pests during the growth period of edible lily are cutworm, aphids and virus diseases. In the early stage of virus disease, 1.5% Zhibingling emulsion 1000 times solution, or anti-poison No.1 300 times solution should be sprayed once every 10 days, and continuous spraying for 2~3 times can be done. Aphids after emergence should be controlled with 40% omethoate. In late April, 0.5 kg phoxim was sprayed on each mu to kill insects underground. The more green leaves per plant, the bigger bulb and higher yield of edible lily in later growth stage.

After the beginning of autumn, edible lily should be harvested in sunny days when its stems have turned yellow and flowers have fallen off. At this time, the bulbs are fully developed, with high yield and storage resistance. When harvesting, the bulbs should be dug up and cut off the ground, immediately transported back to the indoor burial, and stored in clean river sand to prevent discoloration and drying, affecting economic returns.

II. Classification of main lily varieties

1. Lilium lilium

Lilium lilium is also known as Lilium lilium, lily, inverted lotus, tiger lily, pearl flower, yellow lily. Because of orange red color, petals anti-roll, hence the name "lily."

Because there are purple and black stripes on the petals, it is very similar to the pattern of tiger back, so there is the elegant name of tiger lily. Originated in China, Japan, Korea and other places, there are more than planted around. Plant height 70~100 cm, between up to 1.5 meters, can be called the crown of lily. Bulbs are plump, white, edible and medicinal, with a slight bitterness. Black purple spots appear on the stems, making them dark brown. Plant growth robust, leaf axils of bulbils, can use bulbils for reproduction, triploid lily pollinated with many Asian lily species, all have interspecific compatibility, can get interspecific hybrids.

2. Beautiful Lily

Beautiful lily also known as deer lily, red lily. Deer lily is native to Jiangxi Province, Zhejiang Province, Taiwan, Kyushu and Shikoku in Japan, with a plant height of 60~100 cm. The leaves are opposite, wide and sparse, so it is named lily of big leaves. Several flowers bloom on the upper part of the stem, the petals roll outward, the stamens are exposed outside the petals, white and reddish, the petals are covered with rose patterns and spots, like the stripes on the deer body, so there is the good name of the deer lily. White color, called white deer lily, red or purple color, called red deer lily. China Taiwan rare varieties of red deer lily, known as "East Asia's most beautiful lily."

3. Lily of Shandan

Shandan lily is also known as Shandan flower, Shandan, coral lily, line leaf lily, fine leaf lily. Because leaves thin and many, corolla like coral named. Plant culm height 30~40 cm, stem leaves 50~80 cm, fine and delicate, as long as pine leaves. Flowers late spring and early summer open, flowers droop, petals outward anti-roll, bright red, shiny. Bulbs ovate or conical, scales oblong or long ovate. Capsule oblong. The flowering period is from July to August, and the fruit ripening period is from September to October.

4. Lilium longiflorum

Musk lily, also known as iron gun lily, Easter lily, is a representative variety of flower lily, pure white flowers, tubular, horizontal opening. Originated in Taiwan.

3. Lily's reproductive mode

1. ball propagation

Reproduction is carried out by using secondary small seed balls. The method has quick effect and few diseases. Lily on the ground stem surface part will grow 1 cm-2 cm size seed ball, lily harvest left, buried in the sand, autumn sowing for seed use.

2. bulblet propagation

Musk lily does not produce bulbils, other lily in summer in its leaf axils can grow the size of broad bean bulbils (that is, aerial bulbs), each plant can produce more than 40. Summer temperatures continue to rise, bulbils will fall off, should be harvested before falling off, reserved for seed use, the year September-October sowing.

3. scale propagation

This method has a high reproduction coefficient and is more commonly used. After waiting for bulb to fully mature dig, choose hypertrophy without disease and insect pests, cut scale from base with sharp knife, sow in the seedbed of sandy loam immediately. To select disease-free healthy plants by scale propagation method, the plants can germinate quickly and neatly only after over-summer treatment at high temperature above 35℃ for 7 days.

4. How to choose lily

Buy fresh lily should choose a large, white color, uniform petals, thick meat, the bottom of the concave soil less. If the lily color yellow, concave soil wet, may be semen rotten heart. Dried lily is already dry, no impurities, thick meat and crystal clear is better.

Edible lily to home species, taste not bitter, scales wide and thin for the best. Medicinal lily is wild, bitter taste, small and thick petals are better.

Due to the increasing market demand for edible lily, the small planting area in China and the less varieties, the shortage of supply in the past two years has caused the price to soar. Stimulated by this form, many friends want to plant lily and adjust the industry. In this case, variety and planting technology become the key. Therefore, it is very important to master the cultivation technology of edible lily.
