Seed price and planting method of Anemarrhena anemarrhena

Anemarrhena asphodella is also called Anemarrhena, Lianmu, Wild Polygonum, etc. It is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Anemarrhena of Liliaceae. It is cultivated all over China. It has strong drought and cold resistance. It can grow in barren hills, deserts and wasteland with little rain. Its dry rhizome is a famous traditional Chinese medicine. It has the effects of nourishing yin and lowering fire, moistening dry intestines and relieving urine. Let's take a look at the seed price and planting method of Anemarrhena asphodella.

How much does the seed cost?

The price of Anemarrhena seed is about 20~30 yuan per catty, but the price varies according to the quality, variety and origin of the seed. Anemarrhena is very adaptable, wild in sunny hillside grassland and weeds, cold, warm, drought resistance, soil to loose humus soil is appropriate, low-lying water and excessive soil are not suitable for planting, can be sown in all seasons of the year, but mainly spring or summer sowing.

The method of seeding Anemarrhena asphodeloides

1. Seed collection: The mature fruits of Anemarrhena asphodella are harvested from late July to late September, dried in a ventilated and dry place, rubbed out, winnowed off impurities, and stored for later use.

2. Seed treatment: The seeds of Rhizoma Anemarrhenae are soaked in warm water at 30~40℃ for 24 hours. After taking them out and drying them slightly, they can be sown. The sowing amount per mu is about 3 kg.

3. Sowing time: Anemarrhena can be sown in autumn or spring, autumn sown before freezing, spring sown in April, the germination rate of seeds in the current year is 80~90%, and the germination rate of seeds in the next year is only 40~50%.

4. Sowing method: Anemarrhena is generally sown in drill, trenching according to row spacing of 15~20 cm, depth of 1~2 cm, sowing seeds evenly into the ditch, covering the soil, keeping the soil moist, and emergence in about 20 days.

Planting method of Anemarrhena asphodeloides

1. Soil preparation and fertilization: It is good to choose sandy loam with good drainage and neutral soil rich in humus for planting Anemarrhena, deeply cultivate 25~30 cm, rake fine and level, make 1.2 m wide bed, dig drainage ditch, and apply 1500 kg manure per mu.

2. Thinning and fixing seedlings: Thinning seedlings when seedling height is 4~5 cm after germination in spring, removing weak ones and leaving strong ones, fixing seedlings according to plant spacing of 4~5 cm when seedling height is about 10 cm, reasonable close planting is the key to increase yield of Anemarrhena asphodeloides.

3. Loosening and weeding: weeding and intertillage shall be carried out in time after the seedlings of Anemarrhena asphodeloides are unearthed. Loosening and weeding shall be carried out once after thinning. Shallow loosening shall be carried out. Loosening and weeding shall be carried out once after seedling fixation, so as to keep the ridge surface loose and free of weeds.

4. Timely topdressing: In addition to applying sufficient base fertilizer, Anemarrhena asphodella is mainly applied with nitrogen fertilizer at seedling stage, and nitrogen and potassium fertilizer are applied in the middle and late stages of growth. Foliar fertilizer is sprayed once every half month during the vigorous growth period of July to August every year, twice in succession, and sprayed again in rainy days.

5, drainage irrigation: Anemarrhena growth slow in the first year should be irrigated with small water, irrigation once before freezing to prevent winter drought, the second year growth faster, can increase the number of watering to promote root growth, after the rain to drain in time.

6. Cover grass for disease prevention: 1~3-year-old seedlings of Rhizoma Anemarrhenae cover weeds after loosening weeding and topdressing every spring, which can keep warm and inhibit weed breeding.

7, pest control: Anemarrhena rarely occur disease, mainly white grubs bite rhizomes, can be used 90% trichlorfon 1000~1500 times solution pouring poison, or sowing when applying dichlorvos 0.5~1 kg per mu.

8. Harvesting and processing: the seeds of Anemarrhena asphodella are propagated in the spring and autumn of the third year, the rhizomes are dug, the reed heads and fine roots are removed, the yellow fluff and light yellow leaf marks are kept, the soil is cleaned, dried or dried into hairy Anemarrhena asphodella, and the fresh skin is removed and dried into Anemarrhena asphodella meat.
