Chicory is not only a perennial herb of Compositae, but also a combination of medicinal and edible plants, and its leaves can be used as lettuce. The root is rich in inulin and other aromatic substances, which is one of the main raw materials of coffee, which is helpful to promote human digestive function. And the aboveground part and root also have heat-clearing and detoxifying, stomach-strengthening and diuretic effects. So how to manage planting chicory in the field? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Water management

The general sowing time of chicory is just in summer, and there are many Rain Water with high temperature in summer. although chicory has strong waterlogging resistance, it also needs to do a good job in drainage, otherwise it is easy to produce bad phenomena such as waterlogging and virus diseases. However, during the period from emergence to fixed seedling, chicory should be watered at least five times. Then, according to the growth of chicory and the weather and other factors, the soil remained dry and wet in the early stage. Control moisture in the later stage to prevent excessive moisture from leading to excessive growth of chicory. After entering the expansion period, increase the amount of water and frequency, promote the expansion of fleshy roots, stop watering about 7 days before harvest, and improve the storability of chicory.

2. The seedlings are fixed

When chicory seedlings grow to 3 and 5 true leaves, they should be planted separately, and the principle of keeping the strong and removing the weak should be taken as the principle. Ensure that each seedling has sufficient growth space to avoid overcrowding and promote seedling growth. At the end of the seedling, we should fix the seedling, control the distance between rows and plants, and adjust the planting density reasonably. Watering should be done after the seedlings are fixed, and attention should be paid to ploughing and weeding. Improve soil quality, enhance permeability, promote seedling growth, and prevent weeds from grabbing the growth and nutrition of chicory seedlings.

3. Reasonable topdressing

Chicory has a great demand for nutrition, so we still need to do a good job of topdressing when planting. After the seedling is fixed, it is necessary to topdressing once in time, first dig the topdressing ditch, and then apply an appropriate amount of mature farm manure in each topdressing ditch. The position of topdressing ditch should prevent it from getting too close to the root of chicory, so as to prevent the heat generated by fertilizer from burning the root and affecting the growth of chicory. It needs to be watered once after each fertilization, and then ploughed again, keeping the depth at about 8 cm. Then in the expansion period, if there is not much topdressing in the early stage, then it needs to be re-applied, and then reasonable topdressing according to the growth of chicory.

4. Pest control

The disease resistance of chicory is strong, and the incidence of diseases and insect pests is relatively low. However, planting in the greenhouse will still be threatened by certain diseases and insect pests, such as virus diseases, whitefly and so on. Therefore, we still need to do a good job in the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, strengthen field management, do a good job in basic work such as water and fertilizer, disinfect regularly and reduce the number of diseases and insect pests in the greenhouse. Often observe the growth of chicory, when it is found that there is a whitefly disease, it is necessary to trap and kill in time, and then use propofol and other chemicals for control. Corresponding prevention and control must be carried out according to specific diseases and insect pests, and drugs should not be used blindly to prevent drug damage.

The above is a brief introduction of the main points of chicory field management, chicory management is actually relatively extensive. However, we should not ignore it too much, because the changes in the environment, weather and other natural factors will cause some harm to the growth of chicory, so we must pay more attention to it. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
