How to plant the latest old sprouts

Thorn old bud is a kind of small tree, also known as thorn bud, the root of the old bud can be used as medicine, with the effect of invigorating qi and dispelling wind, promoting blood circulation and relieving pain. Now it is mainly distributed in the northeast and south, and the wild area is less. As the old bud becomes more and more popular, the area of artificial planting is also getting larger and larger. So how to plant the old bud? The following editor has brought you the planting method of prickling the old bud, let's have a look!

1. Land selection and preparation

Thorn old bud is originally a kind of wild vegetable, so the demand for soil is not very strong, but artificial planting, there are certain requirements for yield and quality. Therefore, we still have to choose soft and acidic soil with deep soil, sufficient fertility, strong permeability and good drainage and irrigation. The clayey and waterlogged soil can not be selected, which will have a great impact on the germination and later growth of the seeds. Timely soil preparation after land selection, mainly deep ploughing and mid-ploughing to improve soil permeability. Then combined with the application of sufficient mature farm manure, the amount should be controlled according to the planting area.

2. planting at the right time

Sowing seeds at the right time after preparing the ground, the main planting method of prickling old buds is seedling and transplanting. There are two methods of raising seedlings: border planting and ridge planting, and choose the planting method which is suitable for you according to your own planting technology. If it is a border planting, first make a field border that is 25 centimeters high and 1 meter wide. Then dig the border ditch, when sowing, you can also apply the bottom fertilizer, control the sowing density, pour enough water after sowing, cover fine soil, step on the soil, improve water retention and prevent drought. When the seedlings grow to about 8-12 cm and the stems grow to spines, they can be transplanted and planted. After planting, we should strengthen ventilation, control moisture, control the temperature above 12 degrees, ensure that the soil moisture is above 60%, and promote the growth of seedlings.

3. Water and fertilizer management

The growth of thorn sprouts needs more water, especially in the seedling stage, to ensure that the soil is moist, and try to choose a clean water source next to the planting land for later watering. Pay attention to the weather changes, watering in time after drought, but also do a good job of drainage on rainy days. Prevent thorn old bud root can not breathe, retting root rot, causing diseases and insect pests. And in the growth period of the old bud, topdressing should be done in time according to the soil fertility and the growth of the plant, and the times of topdressing should not be less than twice. Attention should be paid to the proportion and dosage of fertilizer to prevent the lack of nutritional growth of old buds or lead to the overgrowth of old buds.

4. Field management

The weeds threatened by the old sprouts planted in that year are relatively great, so we must first do a good job in weeding. Leguminous herbicides are usually used, but attention should be paid to the dosage and spraying position to avoid excessive concentration to inhibit the growth of thorn buds. If it is artificial weeding, it should be careful not to hurt the roots of the old buds, which will hinder the respiration and nutrient absorption of the old buds and reduce the yield and quality. And we also need to prune the higher thorn old buds of the plant to promote the development of branches and roots and increase the yield of thorn old buds. Prune at the base of the branch, retain about 5 lateral buds, and then cut off the upper part of the plant to prevent the plant from overgrowing.

The above is a brief introduction to how to plant thorn sprouts, the nutritional value of thorn sprouts is very high, and even known as the "king of wild vegetables". Thorn old bud has strong growth ability and high yield, but its characteristics will be slightly degraded after artificial planting, so it is still necessary to strengthen field management, increase yield and ensure planting efficiency. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
