The latest method and time of planting leek

Leek is the most common vegetable in our life, it can be fried, boiled, fried, roasted, taste is very good, and leek has a certain medicinal value, in fact, it is to treat some of the more common kidney deficiency and body deficiency. Many people love to eat it very much, and it is also easy to grow. The following is the pro-agricultural network to tell you how to grow leeks and the planting time of leeks.

Planting time

Leek planting time is actually very extensive, basically, spring, autumn and winter can be planted, summer can also be planted, the branch temperature is too high survival probability and growth yield and quality are not particularly good. The most suitable planting season is spring and autumn, the leek in these two seasons is the most exuberant, growing big and tender, the quality is very good.

Planting method

1. Select the place

Leek planting site selection is not particularly important, it has a very strong ability to adapt to the land, the key is what kind of land can grow better, so we had better choose the area close to the water source, the second is the water storage capacity of the land and the degree of fertility should be very good, so the reproduction capacity of leek will be much stronger, at the same time, the color of leek will look much better, making people look very appetitive.

2. Planting

Leek can be planted in two ways, either through sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction is to sow seeds and raise seedlings in rows of prepared fields, but this method is rarely used in our lives. We are most commonly used is transplanting, that is, asexual reproduction, will buy a good leek seedlings in accordance with a certain interval for planting, generally put three seedlings in each hole.

3. Density

Leek has a strong ability to reproduce, basically after planting survived, in a week or so, you will see several new leek seedlings around the hole where there were only three leek seedlings. And it will continue to multiply, if it is not picked and received, it will eventually cover the whole field, but the growth is relatively thin, not stout. Therefore, the planting density is generally 15 to 20 centimeters per plant and 25 to 30 centimeters per row.

4. Fertilization

If you want leeks to grow fast and tender, then fertilization is necessary, but if the fertilization method is not correct, it will also lead to leek aging, can not be imported at all. The growth process of leek is a continuous process, so first of all, we should apply enough basic fertilizer, and then, about a week after planting, we can irrigate the leek with urea and water to promote the growth of leek seedlings. the second is to fertilize the leek according to the growth of the leek and the fertility of the field soil after each harvest. The fertilizer used can be livestock manure, human feces and urine, or urea.

5. Disease prevention

After the leek is planted, we need to spray pesticides regularly to the leek, which generally has some leaf-eating bugs or malnutrition and premature senility caused by insufficient water or nutrients in the field. so we should observe the growth of leek at any time, as long as we are careful enough, there will not be any diseases and insect pests, if it does, we should spray pesticides in time for prevention and control. The most important thing is not to spray pesticides within 15 days before harvest, which will affect the quality.

6. Harvest

The output of leek will not be very high in the first two years after planting. Generally speaking, the output of leek begins to increase steadily from the fourth year, and decreases slowly until the tenth year, so in order to maintain a good yield, we will transplant after each harvest, so that we can continue to increase production. When harvesting, you should pay attention to it at five or six o'clock in the morning, when the leek is the freshest, and note that each harvest is slightly higher than the previous harvest, so that it will grow normally.
