How to plant Amomum villosum

Amomum villosum is a famous traditional Chinese medicine in China, and its value is higher than that of ordinary Amomum villosum, which has the effects of promoting qi and relieving pain, calming fetus and relieving vomiting. Amomum villosum is mainly distributed in Guangdong Province, China. Because of its high value, it has been gradually introduced into other provinces in China. But how to plant Amomum villosum in spring? Today, the editor has brought you a high-yield planting method of spring Amomum villosum. Let's take a look at it.

1. Land selection and preparation

Amomum villosum is a subtropical plant, but it has little demand for light, and its growth and adaptability are relatively strong. However, artificial planting requires a higher yield of Amomum villosum. Therefore, before planting, we should choose areas with fertile, high water content and a certain degree of shade for planting, and the soil should not be too sandy and sticky. The soil without shade, rich in light and too sticky is not suitable for planting Amomum villosum. After selecting a good site, we need to do a good job in soil preparation, plough it deeply and apply rotten farm manure as base fertilizer to improve soil looseness, enhance soil fertility and prepare for planting.

2. Sowing and raising seedlings

Around August every year, when the fruit is broken and accompanied by a spicy taste, the fruit is ripe, and then the stalk is cut off with scissors to remove the seeds from the fruit. Then clean the impurities and mucus on the seeds, air-dry them and sow them in time. Sowing is generally carried out in autumn, sowing should pay attention to control the sowing density, not too dense, to avoid reducing the germination rate of seeds. Generally speaking, sowing is based on on-demand seeding. After digging a good sowing hole, about two seeds are put into each sowing hole. After sowing, cover soil and cover grass to improve the ability of soil moisture conservation and prevent Rain Water from washing away seeds.

3. Timely planting

Under normal management after sowing, seedlings will generally emerge in about a month, and then strengthen management and plant in a timely manner around Ching Ming Festival in the second year. About 1 / 3 leaves of the seedlings should be retained when planting, and the seedlings should be planted as soon as they are cut. When planting, the row spacing should be kept at about 80 cm, the depth of planting hole should be controlled at about 30 cm, and then sufficient mature farm manure should be applied. Cover the soil about 8 cm after planting and expose the stolon. Step on the base of the plant to avoid lodging in the wind. After planting, the grass is covered properly, and if there is a lack of water, it should be watered in time to keep the soil moist.

4. Field management

We should do a good job of weeding in the process of planting, proper ploughing can prevent soil consolidation, improve soil permeability and create a good growth environment for spring Amomum villosum. When weeding, it is mainly to be pulled out manually, because the number of stolons of Amomum villosum is very large, if you use a hoe to weed, it is likely to hurt the stolon of Amomum villosum. Weeding can not only prevent weeds from grabbing nutrition, but also the flower and fruit aroma of Amomum villosum is very strong, so it can also avoid the harm of snakes and rats to the plant. Watering should be based on watering. Watering can promote the growth of pollen and improve the fruit rate, but not too much to avoid flowers falling.

Stop weeding after entering the flowering stage, and cut off the aboveground parts in time when weak seedlings, withered seedlings and dead seedlings are found, so as to promote the regeneration of rhizomes. It is not suitable to apply fertilizer when planting Amomum villosum. Fertilization will reduce the flowering and fruiting rate of Amomum villosum. Then we should do a good job in clearing the garden in winter to prepare for the growth of Amomum villosum in the second year. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only.
