It has high medicinal value and excellent nourishing effect, as well as the effect of nourishing the liver and eyesight. Now most of the Ligustrum lucidum is planted in the park, because its tree shape is also very lovely, the ornamental value is also very good. So how to plant the Ligustrum lucidum? Let's follow the editor to learn about it.

1. Improvement of soil and fertilizer

Ligustrum lucidum likes sun, warmth and cold tolerance. According to these growth habits of Ligustrum lucidum, the planting land will generally be selected in the sunny, well-drained and irrigated sandy loam with sufficient soil fertility, rich in organic matter, deep soil layer and perfect soil structure. It is best to turn the soil in autumn, turning the soil at least 30 centimeters deep, then sprinkling sufficient fertilizer, turning it again, and turning the soil into a border, which is about one meter wide and ten centimeters high.

2. Breeding and transplanting

The seeds of Ligustrum lucidum purchased are basically processed, so they can be sown directly. However, there are still many seeds left by themselves, so before sowing, the seeds need to be soaked in warm water, and then put in the appropriate temperature for budding, so that most of the bud points have emerged, which can be sowed. Sowing is generally in the way of direct seeding or strip sowing, with an interval of about ten centimeters per plant. When the seedlings grow to about 30 centimeters, this is ready for transplant. First of all, it is necessary to dig holes with an interval of about 3.5 to 4 meters in the field, and then sprinkle base fertilizer in the hole search, and finally cover the soil for planting.

3. Cultivation and management

After planting, we have to carry out reasonable watering, usually about a week after planting, if there is no rain, we need to water, never water before the rain, which will reduce the survival rate of Ligustrum lucidum. When the height of the planted seedlings is about 15 centimeters, this is the first time to carry out intertillage weeding, and combined with fertilization. In the subsequent growth process, at least two to three times of intertillage and weeding are required each year, and at least two fertilizers are needed each year. Fertilization is mainly organic fertilizer, as much as possible to reduce the use of chemical fertilizer. Finally, after the young trees have grown for two years, we need to prune the branches and leaves scientifically to ensure the shape of the trees and adjust the permeability of the field.

4. Prevention and control of diseases and pests

The resistance of Ligustrum lucidum is actually quite strong, but there will still be some damage to insect pests. For example, rust, privet moth, wax beetle, longicorn beetle and so on. We can use Wiruiling EC, trichlorfon EC, imidathion EC, fenitrothion EC for control and spraying respectively.
