Lotus and lotus canopy grow very well, but will the yield of lotus root be affected?

The most favorite thing to see in summer is the lotus. The lotus leaves, lotus flowers and lotus pods in the lotus pond are very beautiful. Especially after the rain, the waves of lotus incense are very pleasant. However, when picking lotus leaves when I was young, some old people did stop them, saying that picking lotus leaves and lotus roots would die. Today, small farmers will talk to you about the little knowledge of lotus root.

Now let's talk about the problems of lotus and lotus pod. Many people like it very much. The buds of the lotus root, the most lotus root, actually consume a lot of nutrients during the growth period. Growers generally choose to bend the lotus flower in time, so that the loss of nutrients can be avoided, and it is best not to break it when bending, otherwise Rain Water will enter the root through the stomata, causing the lotus root to rot.

As the fruit of lotus root, lotus canopy has use value and medicinal value. In fact, the question of whether picking lotus canopy has any effect on lotus root still exists. Although lotus canopy matures at the end of summer, after picking at this time, the stem of lotus will wither quickly, and Rain Water rarely enters the root. The damage of lotus root will not be too serious.

However, the lotus canopy consumes a lot of nutrients during its growth. Picking lotus canopy can reduce the supply of nutrients to the fruit, preserve the supply of nutrients to the rhizome, and promote the growth and expansion of lotus root. From this point of view, picking lotus and lotus canopy in time is beneficial to the growth of lotus root. However, if you really enjoy the lotus, it is better not to pick it, and the beautiful scenery will belong to everyone.

Finally, I would like to talk about the lotus leaf. Lotus leaf is the main place for photosynthesis of lotus root, which plays an important role in the growth of lotus root. Usually, if we pick one or two lotus leaves, it will not have much effect on the growth of lotus root. But if we pick a large number of lotus leaves, it will have an impact on the growth of lotus root. You think, the lotus root grows underwater, the respiration is relatively weak, mainly depends on the lotus leaf for photosynthesis, without the lotus leaf lotus root naturally does not grow well. And the stem of the lotus leaf is hollow, picking lotus leaves may bring sewage, Rain Water into the stem, causing damage to the growth of the lotus root at the bottom. Therefore, many farmers who plant lotus roots are very disgusted with those who pick lotus leaves.

The above comes from the original creation of promoting agriculture through science.
