The latest way to plant wormwood

Artemisia argyi is a common plant in China, and now some of it is still used as a kind of medicinal material. Coupled with the increase in demand in recent years, artificial cultivation has begun in many places. So how can the moxa grass grow luxuriantly?

1. Land management

Although Artemisia argyi itself has little demand for land and can be planted in relatively barren places, we still have to raise it well in order to ensure the quality of the land. First of all, geographical weeds and so on should be cleaned up, and farm manure should be selected as far as possible for composting. Secondly, fertilizers should be mixed in the soil and stirred. Sandy soil is the best soil, such a highly permeable soil is conducive to the reproduction of moxa grass.

2. Planting management

Many friends do not manage much after planting, resulting in thicker growth in some places. Generally speaking, the seedlings of Artemisia argyi should be transplanted when they are unearthed 5 centimeters, and each point is about 2, and if there are more, they will be removed. Try not to move seedlings after 10 centimeters, when it is the best time for the root development of moxa grass to determine its subsequent length. Generally speaking, the distance between each plant is about 30 cm, and this density can ensure the maximum benefit.

3. Fertilizer and water treatment

Moxa grass pays great attention to fertilizer and water, and the fertilization season must be selected. Many friends will choose to wait for the Artemisia moxa festival before fertilizing, or even not fertilizing, after applying fertilizer at the initial germination. Here to grasp two time periods, one is in the 10 cm development period to topdressing once, a small amount, and mix water together, the other is about 40 cm in the growth period. The later watering method is generally spraying, as long as the surface is wettable, but not too often because the root of moxa grass is completely out of sunlight, and too much water is easy to corrode the root.

4. Field management

Weeding in the early stage is a very important thing, moxa grass is convenient to weed only in the seedling stage, and it is not harmful to the growth of moxa grass when it grows up in the later stage, because Artemisia argyi itself is a kind of plant that competes for nutrients. The second is the treatment of some withered moxa grass, must be taken away in time. The same is true during harvest, try to clean up the residual branches and leaves on the ground, which is good for the next planting.

Moxa grass is a kind of thing that can be used in many places, such as mosquito repellent, etc., the management of daily planting is not strong, it itself is a kind of plant with strong survivability. If you like management requires less time and economic value can also consider planting moxa grass.
