How to reproduce the latest Prunella vulgaris

Prunella vulgaris is a kind of plant with high medicinal value, it is a kind of grass that withered in summer, often wild in gully wetlands or river banks on both sides of wet grass, wasteland, roadside, distributed all over the country. Now there are a lot of cultivation in Hunan, Henan, Anhui and other provinces, its adaptability is strong, there are few diseases and insect pests, coupled with good planting efficiency, so it attracts a lot of people to plant. But planting is its reproductive relationship and its income. Let's take a look at the breeding methods of Prunella vulgaris with Xiaobian.

1. What are the methods of reproduction

Prunella vulgaris can not only adapt to the traditional seed propagation methods, but also has strong germination and tillering ability, and can also be propagated through ramets, which has the advantages of simple operation, high survival rate and seedling formation, and many people eat it when planting. Let's take a look at the specific operations of the two breeding methods.

2. Seed propagation

Seed reproduction is the first to collect seeds. Prunella vulgaris gradually yellowed and withered in June every year. When it withered to about 80%, its ear can be cut off, although after drying for a period of time, the seeds can be screened out. Remove impurities from the seeds, store them in a cool place, and sow seeds. The sowing time is generally from March to April in spring and August in autumn. By using the method of sowing, the seeds are scattered evenly on the soil according to a certain spacing between rows, which should not be too dense. Cover a layer of fine soil after sowing, then suppress it slightly with your hands, and then water it again. Pay attention to the amount of water that should not be too large, so as not to wash out the seeds directly. In the future, it should be often watered to keep the soil moist, but it is not suitable for stagnant water. It can sprout after 10-15 days.

3. Ramet propagation

Ramet propagation time is generally at the end of spring planting when new buds are sprouted, the older roots of robust plants are dug out and divided into 2-3 small plants, which are planted respectively. When planting, the density should also be controlled, not too dense, and the plant-row spacing can be controlled at about 10 × 25cm. After planting, the soil should be slightly suppressed by hand and then watered to maintain a certain soil moisture. In the case of suitable temperature, the seedlings can emerge in about a week, and then they are carefully maintained and ready for transplanting.
