How to reproduce asparagus

Water spinach is a kind of vegetable we are familiar with. Because of its hollow stem, it is named water spinach. It is planted in most parts of our country. It is rich in nutrients, vitamin content is high, but also has the role of cooling blood, detoxification, so in the market more popular with consumers. Do you know how it reproduces? Let's get to know each other.

1. Breeding methods

Water spinach vitality is strong, both can be used for seed reproduction, but also through asexual reproduction, we are more commonly used in life is seed reproduction, but asexual reproduction is also widely used. Because the climate in some areas is not suitable for the flowering and fruiting results of water spinach, it is impossible to keep seeds normally. At this time, only asexual reproduction can be carried out.

2. Seed reproduction

There are two ways of seed propagation of water spinach: direct seeding and seedling transplanting, both of which can be sown in spring, generally in April in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Because of the low temperature and rainy climate during sowing, in order to avoid the phenomenon of rotten seeds, seed soaking and germination methods are generally carried out before sowing, or plastic film mulching or greenhouse cultivation methods are adopted.

Fine soil preparation before sowing, and then apply sufficient base fertilizer after sowing, direct seeding with about 10 kg per mu, and seedling transplanting method with 1-2 times its seed, 15-20 kg per mu per month. After sowing, it should be covered with loose soil or fire ash soil to prevent seeds from germinating and taking root. For direct seeding mode, seedlings should be thinned in time when seedlings grow to 3-5cm, and planting should be carried out in the later stage. For seedling transplanting mode, it is only necessary to transplant large seedlings when seedlings grow to more than 15cm.

3. Asexual reproduction

Water spinach is easy to have adventitious roots, so asexual reproduction is easy to survive. In some areas, all kinds of stumps are generally planted directly in the field one year in advance. When the seedlings grow to a certain extent, they are pressed to germinate new roots and promote new seedlings. It can also be grown in a greenhouse environment. When the seedlings grow to 10-15cm, they will be cut in a leeward, sunny, warm and fertile soil.
