Planting methods of Chinese cabbage

Cabbage is a kind of vegetable that we are very familiar with. It contains high levels of vitamins and other nutrients. Now there are various varieties of cabbage, so the place suitable for cabbage growth is also very extensive. It is planted all over our country. And now the cultivation of cabbage can not only be planted in one season, but can be planted in many seasons, so how is cabbage planted? Let's follow the editor to learn how to grow cabbage.

1. Seed selection and soil preparation

In fact, the selection of cabbage is not as complicated as everyone thinks. now Chinese cabbage seeds are clearly marked and explained. we can select cabbage seeds according to the description of cabbage seeds, planting time and local climate. secondly, if you keep your own seeds, it is best to choose seeds with full grains, fast growth, tender vegetable leaves, strong resistance and no diseases and insect pests. Chinese cabbage has a good adaptability to the environment, but in order to improve the yield of Chinese cabbage, we can choose soil with fertile soil, good water storage, strong drainage, loose and solid soil for planting. In the soil preparation, the soil should be leveled, fined, ditched and ridged, and the base fertilizer should be laid during this period.

2. Sowing and raising seedlings

Before sowing and raising seedlings, we should first set up the seedbed. The seedbed planted with cabbage should be relatively high and close to the water source to facilitate irrigation and drainage. The second is that the soil should be integrated into small particles, and then the seedbed should be raked flat. The seedbed is first watered thoroughly and then can be sown, and then the seeds are covered with a layer of organic fertilizer, or watered again with feces and urine. Finally, the seeds are covered with fine soil, and seedlings usually emerge in about four to five days.

3. Reasonable close planting

When the cabbage seedlings grow four or five leaves (excluding the first two bottom leaves), we can transplant. When pulling out the seedlings, it is best to pull them out together with the base soil, so that the cabbage seedlings are easier to survive. We planted on the whole ground at a distance of 35 cm per row and 30 cm per plant, which is not only convenient for later field operation, but also not easy to cause disease. Here, the editor would also like to remind you that if it is sunny after planting, remember to water it in time.

4. Field management

Field management is mainly divided into three stages, the first stage is the seedling management of Chinese cabbage, mainly to promote the growth of Chinese cabbage, accelerate the growth rate of Chinese cabbage, shorten the growth cycle of Chinese cabbage, we should carry out the first fertilization and weeding, we first weed the Chinese cabbage, and then irrigate it with dung and urine water. The second stage is the rosette management of cabbage, the most important of which is squatting seedlings, which means to promote the growth of rosette. We can use urea and ammonium bicarbonate for acupoint application, and combine with ploughing. The last stage is the heart management of cabbage. We need to carry out scientific management according to the law of cabbage growth. At this stage, we need at least three more fertilizers, so that nutrients can be fully utilized. At the same time, if necessary, we also need to carry out auxiliary heart management of cabbage.

5. Pest control

For the management of diseases and insect pests of cabbage, we need to carry out reasonable control according to the different stages of cabbage growth. First of all, at the seedling stage of Chinese cabbage, we mainly control aphids and cabbage green insects. Now, there are no harmful pesticides we can use this pesticide to spray, the second is the rosette stage of Chinese cabbage, we deal with and control aphids and cabbage green insects, there are also some diseases, such as downy mildew, black spot and so on. We need to use special agents for treatment and strengthen field management, the last is the Chinese cabbage heart period, the main control is also aphids and cabbage green insects, specific agents can be consulted.
