How to grow Bing Bean

Beans are leguminous plants, also known as beans or lentils, is a dual-use medicinal and edible plants. At present, lentils are mainly distributed in Hebei, Shaanxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places in China. The planting scale is not large and has not been popularized in China. So how much do we know about this plant, which is not yet widespread? How should it be grown? Let's take a look.

1. Soil preparation

The growing cycle of lentils is relatively short compared to that of many crops, and they are often grown as a supplement crop. The soil pH of lentil planting should be moderate, or weakly alkaline soil, and it should not be planted in the soil where the previous crop is leguminous, solanaceous and other plants. Deep ploughing of soil before planting does not require excessive fertilization, too much nutrients, but low yield; and timely fine rake, retain moisture, and finally ditch for bedding, ready for sowing.

2. Sowing

The lentils can be grown in two seasons, between late March and early April in spring and late September in autumn. Due to the special growth of lentils, it is necessary to inoculate rhizobia before sowing, and then drill according to the distance of 25 cm between rows. The body when sowing is generally about four or five centimeters, and the deepest is no more than six centimeters. Under normal circumstances, sister trees usually planted more than 60,000 lentils, and the maximum number was 67,000. Otherwise, it would affect the yield of lentils.

3. Fertilization

Although it is said that the symbiotic nodule nitrogen fixation can meet the nitrogen required for its growth and development, it will only be produced under the conditions of nodule nitrogen fixation formation, and it is also necessary to rely on artificial fertilization during the period when the bean is still young. This is because we usually apply nitrogen fertilizer, and in order to promote plant growth, we can use phosphorus scientifically, which is conducive to nodule nitrogen fixation formation. When fertilizing, it is usually combined with deep ploughing for fertilization, mainly organic fertilizer, zinc sulfate and potassium fertilizer for deep ploughing, combined with boron fertilizer and ammonium fertilizer for foliar spraying.

4. Watering

The drought tolerance of lentils is extremely strong. Generally speaking, in the case of rainfall, basically it does not need watering during its entire growth process. However, if it is not just in the bean emergence, or if it is flowering and pod setting period if there is no rain for a long time, then it needs timely watering. Of course, continuous rainfall is not ruled out, so if so, we should also prepare for waterlogging prevention and discharge excess water from the field in time.

5. Weeding

During the whole growth process of lentils, only two times of intertillage and weeding are generally required. The first time is after planting survival, if there are weeds in the field, timely weeding; the second time is about two months after sowing, if the weeds in the field grow too fierce, seriously affecting the growth of lentils, then carry out the second weeding. Of course, if special circumstances are encountered, it is necessary to increase the number of weeding appropriately according to the specific situation.

The vitality of lentils was very vigorous, and it was very simple to plant. The field operation was not complicated, so people with a little planting experience could learn it. Today's sharing of Xiaobian is here. If you have other questions to consult, you can leave a message to Xiaobian.
