The latest course of planting techniques and methods of Tribulus terrestris

Tribulus terrestris, also known as white tribulus, is a plant belonging to the family Tribulus, distributed throughout China. The economic value of Tribulus terrestris L. is relatively high. Fresh Tribulus terrestris L. can be used as feed for cattle and sheep. The fruit can also be used as medicine, which has various effects such as calming liver and improving eyesight, dispersing wind and blood, and has certain economic value. So how do you grow tribulus? Today, Xiaobian brought you the planting technology of Tribulus terrestris. Let's take a look together!

1. Soil selection

Tribulus was originally a kind of weed, so it had a strong growth ability. Wild Tribulus had no strict requirements for soil and could grow normally on most soils. But artificial cultivation is mainly for yield, so when artificial cultivation. The selection of soil is still very important, mainly sandy soil with loose soil, sufficient fertility and strong permeability. After selecting the soil, we should do a good job of soil preparation, remove impurities in the soil and disinfect it. then sufficient fertilizer is applied to improve the fertility of the soil and ensure that the Tribulus terrestris grows with sufficient nutrition,

2. Breeding methods

The propagation method of Tribulus terrestris is mainly seed propagation, and the seed maturity time of Tribulus terrestris is about August every year. Choose plump green and white fruits and dry them. Before sowing, separate the fruit from the seeds and pick out the pure seeds. Sowing time in the spring of each year, before sowing to irrigate the soil thoroughly, and then seed cover soil. If it is seeding, then the row spacing should be controlled at about 50 cm, the plant spacing should be kept at about 35 cm, and the seeding hole should be dug. Sow about 4 seeds in each hole, cover soil and water again, and control the sowing amount per mu at about 2 kg. In order to improve the germination rate of seeds, proper germination treatment can be done before sowing.

3. Seedling management

When seedlings grow to about 5 cm, thin seedlings should be carried out, and weak seedlings and overgrown seedlings should be pulled out in time. Then when the seedlings grow to about 10 cm high, if it is broadcast, the seedling spacing is controlled at about 35 cm, and if it is dibbling, about 3 seedlings are reserved in each hole. If there is a lack of seedlings phenomenon, it is necessary to make up seedlings in time. Then we have to do a good job of weeding in the seedling stage, weeds will rob the growth of tribulus nutrients. Therefore, it is necessary to sprout in time. The seedling emergence should not be too deep and heavy. Avoid hurting the roots of Tribulus terrestris seedlings. Shallow hoe can be about two centimeters.

4. Field management

In addition to applying sufficient base fertilizer before planting, we should also apply topdressing according to the fertility of the soil during the planting process of Tribulus terrestris, and apply topdressing twice or so during the whole growth period. Before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, we should do a good job of keeping seeds. In order to ensure that the maturity time of seeds is not too different, we should pinch the growth points of each branch in time. Ensure that the branches can increase the number of short branches and fruit rate. Finally, we should do a good job in the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, such as white rust, red spider, etc., to avoid diseases and insect pests harming the growth of Tribulus terrestris, resulting in yield decline and affecting planting benefits.

The above is a simple introduction to Tribulus planting technology. The planting technology of Tribulus terrestris is actually very simple, but if you want to increase the yield, then the management work is very important, so everyone must pay more attention. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to help everyone oh!
