Kudzu root can be eaten raw, can be made into kudzu powder, and can be used in medicine. It is a crop with high economic value and has been planted in most parts of our country. In addition to sowing this method of reproduction when planting, there are also several other methods of reproduction. Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Sowing and reproduction

From September to October every year, when the pods are ripe, the pods are collected, dried and threshed, and the impurities are removed, leaving the seeds for storage. In the following spring, when the temperature rises, choose an appropriate time to prepare for sowing, first select the sandy soil with deep soil layer and good drainage, combined with soil preparation, apply base fertilizer, and then sow. Sowing can be hole sowing or strip sowing, pay attention to sowing density when sowing, and time seedlings after emergence. Combined with ploughing and weeding, when the seedlings grow to a certain extent, they will be planted in time.

2. Cuttage propagation

Cutting propagation is to select the stout kudzu vine that grows on the mother plant for 1-2 years, cut every 2-3 stem nodes into a segment, insert it into loose and moist soil or fine sand, and make use of its regeneration ability, it can take root after about one month, and a new plant can be formed soon. Because of the shortage of cuttings, this method is not suitable for mass propagation of seedlings, and the disease resistance is weak, so it is easy to accumulate a large number of viruses, so that the varieties of Pueraria lobata are degraded and the yield and quality are reduced.

3. Root propagation

Heel propagation, as the name implies, is to use the underground rhizome of Pueraria lobata to reproduce. When harvesting in winter, the robust root system will be cut off about 10 cm in length, which can be reduced and planted directly into the production site. After the following spring, new seedlings can be grown, and when the seedlings grow to a certain extent, they can be transplanted to the planting site in time.

4. Striping propagation

Striping propagation and cutting propagation are somewhat similar, generally carried out in summer, when the plant growth is luxuriant in summer, choose to grow sturdy, disease-free Pueraria lobata, every 1-2 nodes, dig loose the soil under the node, press the soil on the pile, and press the node in the soil. The stem nodes buried in the soil can be cut with a knife and watered during drought to take root as far as possible. After rooting, thin fertilizer and water are applied in time to remove weeds. After the shoot is sprouted in the spring of the following year, it will be cut off into a single plant and transplanted at the beginning of the seedling.

The above is an introduction to the breeding methods of Pueraria lobata. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
