Notes on the cultivation of prickly ash

Castanopsis thunbergii is one of the more common wild vegetables in rural areas, also known as koji, thorn cabbage, often growing on hillsides, wastelands, roadsides or fields. Rabdosia angustifolia also has a certain nutritional value, with the role of hemostasis, detumescence and detoxification. Due to its increased market demand, artificial planting is on the rise. But we need to pay attention to some problems when planting. Let's take a look at it.

1. Soil

Rabdosia angustifolia does not have high requirements for soil, as long as it can grow normally in soil with excellent fertility, but if it is necessary to obtain high and high yield, it is necessary to have sufficient water and ploughing and disinfecting the soil before planting. Although the requirement for the soil is not high, it is suitable to be planted in acidic soil, so we should pay attention to the acidity and alkalinity of the soil, so as to make the cabbage grow better, improve the yield and quality, and remember not to plant it on saline-alkali soil.

2. Sowing seeds

Rabdosia angustifolia is generally propagated with seeds in production, and the bud of the plant will wither in June every year. At this time, the bud can be picked and used as a seed after sun exposure. However, we should pay attention to the time when sowing, sowing too early or too late is not good for its growth, and the best sowing time is in the Beginning of Spring climate. Seed dressing should be carried out before sowing, seed dressing can eliminate a large number of germs on the seed surface, reduce the occurrence of diseases, and sow seeds after seed dressing.

3. Seedling stage management

After the seeds germinate, they should be checked in time. As soon as weak or dead seedlings are found, they should be pulled out and the seedlings should be replenished in time, so as to ensure the yield. In addition, we should also pay attention to the field density, so as not to cause canopy in the field, affect the growth of seedlings, and interplant seedlings at an appropriate time. Fertilizer and water management in the seedling stage is also very important, drought should be timely watering, in order to avoid lack of water, in the lack of fertilizer should be timely topdressing to ensure nutrient supply, fertilization generally choose mature farm manure. At the same time, we should also do a good job in weeding, so as to prevent weeds from seizing nutrients and growth space, so as to pull up as soon as we see the grass, so as to make the cabbage grow better.

4. Pest control

Any plant will suffer from diseases and insect pests during its growth, and the disease and insect pests are no exception. The diseases and insect pests mainly harm the leaves of Rabdosia spinosa, which hinders the photosynthesis of the plant, can not synthesize nutrients normally, and affects the yield and quality. Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job of disinfection, sterilization and light from time to time during production to ensure a good growth environment. When diseases and insect pests are found, they should be dealt with in time and thoroughly cured.
