Planting conditions of Angelica sinensis

Angelica sinensis is a traditional Chinese medicine in China, which has the effects of tonifying blood and nourishing blood, anti-aging and anti-cancer. It is commonly used in folk to cook soup. It is an excellent medicinal diet, which can promote bone growth and prevent gynecological diseases. Angelica is planted in a wide range, and it is planted everywhere, but if you want to grow Angelica well, you need certain conditions in addition to the planting technology. Let's take a look at the planting conditions of Angelica sinensis.

1. Growth environment

Angelica sinensis is a low-temperature and long-day crop and likes cold and cool climate, so it is suitable for growing at higher elevations. It likes to grow at 1500-3000 meters above sea level. Therefore, when planting, try to choose to raise seedlings at an altitude of about 2500 meters, and transplant at an altitude of about 2200 meters, which can increase its yield. If the altitude is low, it will have a certain impact on its yield and quality.

2. Soil requirements

Angelica sinensis does not have strict requirements for soil, and can be planted in yellow soil, red soil and sandy soil, but it is suitable to be planted in sandy soil with deep soil layer, loose and fertile soil and rich in humus, which is beneficial to its growth and increase yield and income. But avoid continuous cropping, continuous cropping not only has a high incidence of disease, but also has a low yield, so it is not suitable to be planted on low-lying stagnant water or clay and barren soil where the soil is easy to solidify.

3. Temperature requirement

Angelica sinensis has strict requirements for temperature. The suitable temperature for its growth is 20-30 degrees, but it grows fastest between 20-24 degrees. Its seeds can only emerge above 10 degrees. On this basis, the higher the temperature, the faster its emergence speed. For example, below 15 degrees, it takes 20 days for seedlings to emerge after sowing, but only two weeks for seedlings at 20-24 degrees.

4. Moisture requirement

At the same time, it has strict requirements for water, it is neither resistant to drought nor waterlogging, and has a certain strict scale for water requirements. It is most suitable when the soil water content is 25%, but if it is higher than 40%, the soil will be flooded and waterlogged, and the root system will rot over time, so pay attention to drainage in the rainy season. If the soil water content is less than 13%, there will be drought, which is disadvantageous to its growth, so in the summer high temperature, we should pay attention to watering to replenish water.

5. Lighting requirements

Angelica sinensis is an alpine medicine with long sunshine, it likes to grow very fast in an environment with sufficient light, on the contrary, it is lack of light, slow or stagnant. Therefore, when planting, try to choose shady slope or flat land, in order to facilitate its growth and increase yield.

The above is the introduction of the planting conditions of Angelica sinensis, in short, affect the cultivation of Angelica sinensis, to meet its growth conditions, do a good job of fertilizer and water, temperature and light management, we can obtain high yield and improve income.
