The latest course on planting techniques of carrots

Carrot is a kind of vegetable with high nutritional value, and the market demand in our country is very large. Carrots are rich in carotene and various vitamins. Now the planting area of carrots is becoming more and more extensive, and some people continue to join the army of carrot growers. So how exactly should carrots be planted? The following editor brings you the planting technology of carrots, let's have a look!

1. Growth environment

Carrots usually grow in a cool environment, and the temperature is usually about 20 degrees. The demand for light is relatively large, and the soil should also maintain a certain amount of water content, good permeability and the ability of drainage and irrigation. To ensure good traffic, you cannot choose plots that have used harmful substances such as herbicides. Sowing can be done when the soil temperature is stable at about 10 degrees. If the temperature after sowing is 15 degrees, it can improve the germination rate of carrot seeds. Maintaining a certain temperature difference and moisture between day and night can enhance the quality of carrots.

2. Methods of reproduction

The previous crop of the soil should be legumes and other plants, and then after receiving the previous crop, it is necessary to do a good job of soil preparation. Turn it about 28 cm deep, and then apply farm manure of about 2800kg per mu as base fertilizer. And should be fully watered, finishing about 2 times. Then put the carrot seeds in the sun for about two days before sowing, and then soak the seeds in warm water for 4 hours. After soaking the seeds, the seeds were removed and wrapped in a wet cloth and placed in an environment of 26-28 degrees to do budding work. Spray water properly in the process of accelerating germination. When about 70% of the seeds are exposed, they can be sown.

3. Ploughing and weeding

Intertillage weeding is an indispensable work in the whole growth period of carrots. Mid-tillage can keep the soil permeable enough, promote the absorption of fertilizer and water, enhance the growth ability of carrot roots, and can also achieve the purpose of weeding. If it is not weeded in time, it will have a great impact on the growth of carrots. Because the nutrient water absorption of carrot seedlings is relatively weak, if weeding is not timely, all nutrients will flow into weeds, resulting in malnutrition of seedlings and reducing the economic benefits of planting.

4. Fertilizer and water management

Water is very important to the growth of carrots. In hot and dry weather, water should be watered about twice a day to preserve soil moisture. The water content of the soil should be kept at about 65%, but we should also pay attention to the amount of water. if we encounter the rainy season or overwatering, we should drain the water in time to prevent retting roots and cause diseases and insect pests of carrots. When fertilizing, we must pay attention to the nutritional proportion of elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, as well as calcium and silicon, which are essential nutrients for carrot growth. It is also necessary to properly spray foliar fertilizers such as magnesium and manganese to promote the synthesis of chlorophyll in carrots, enhance the ability of light and improve the growth ability of carrots.

The above is a brief introduction to carrot planting technology. In fact, the cultivation of carrots is relatively simple, but we should also do a good job in management to prevent accidents and affect the economic benefits of planting.
