2. Seed treatment: before sowing, motherwort seeds were mixed with fire ash or fine soil fertilizer, and then mixed with human and animal feces and urine and new high-fat film to ward off underground diseases and insects, isolate virus infection, strengthen respiratory intensity and improve seed germination rate.

When the height of seedlings is 15 cm, the seedlings are fixed. Strip sowing takes the wrong plants to keep seedlings, the distance between plants is about 10 cm, and there are 3 seedlings left in each hole. It is found that missing seedlings should be transplanted and replanted in time.

2. Intermediate ploughing and weeding: motherwort is sown in spring and ploughed and weeded three times, when the seedling height is 5 cm, 15 cm and 30 cm, summer sowing is carried out according to plant growth, autumn sowing is the first time to weed when the seedlings grow 3-4 true leaves, and then ploughing and weeding three times in the following year.

3. Cultivate soil and protect roots: when ploughing and weeding motherwort, do not turn too deep so as not to hurt the roots.

4. Water and fertilizer management: motherwort should be fertilized once after weeding, and it is better to apply nitrogen fertilizer. Urea, ammonium sulfate, cake fertilizer or human and animal manure can be used. Attention should be paid to watering when topdressing, and fertilizer should not be too thick to avoid damaging seedlings. Rain Water should prevent stagnant water when he is concentrated in the rainy season.

5. Disease and pest control: motherwort powdery mildew is controlled with 1000 times of Rhizoctonia sclerotiorum before and after the disease. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum can be sprayed with Rhizoctonia solani 500 or 300 times Bordeaux, aphids are controlled with chemical agents, and small tigers are killed in the morning or trapped by heap grass.
