Radix Pseudostellariae is a very common traditional Chinese medicine, and its use history is very long. The nutritional effect of Radix Pseudostellariae is very high, which has the effects of invigorating the spleen, moistening the lung and relieving cough.

There is a very extensive planting area in our country, so how should we manage it when planting Radix Pseudostellariae? The following editor brings you the key points of the field management of Prince ginseng. Let's have a look!

1. Seedling stage management

After planting Radix Pseudostellariae, it is necessary to keep the soil moist, and in case of drought, it is necessary to water in time to increase the water content of the soil, promote the growth of the middle root and enhance its growth ability. Then in sunny weather, ploughing and weeding work is carried out, and proper spraying is used to inhibit the growth of weeds. The seedling growth rate of Radix Pseudostellariae is relatively slow, so weeding is essential. When weeding, we should pay attention to the depth, not too deep, to prevent injury to the roots, affecting the growth of Radix Pseudostellariae. Then after the line is closed, the weeding work can be stopped.

2. Growth period management

The growth period of Radix Pseudostellariae is relatively short, and its branches and leaves are relatively fragile. Therefore, we should pay attention to the dosage when applying fertilizer to prevent the branches and leaves from burning out because the concentration is too high. Therefore, it is necessary to apply sufficient base fertilizer before planting to meet the nutritional needs of Radix Pseudostellariae and increase the yield. The base fertilizer is mainly rotten farm manure, which is fully mixed with the soil after being applied into the fertilization ditch to improve the utilization rate of fertilizer. If the base fertilizer is sufficient and the soil is fertile, there is no need to apply fertilizer. On the contrary, if the base fertilizer is insufficient and the soil is barren, it is necessary to do a good job of topdressing. Topdressing fertilizer is mainly compound fertilizer, when topdressing, we should pay attention not to contact with plants to prevent root burning.

3. Water management

Although Radix Pseudostellariae likes water, it is not resistant to waterlogging. If stagnant water is produced in the field, it can easily lead to root rot and other diseases. So we need to ensure that the soil has a good drainage capacity. However, water should not be too little, in summer and other high-temperature and dry seasons, we should pay attention to watering, but to meet the water needs of Radix Pseudostellariae, we should prevent too much water and promote the growth of Radix Pseudostellariae. In the growth process of Radix Pseudostellariae, try to avoid trampling on the field border, resulting in local stagnant water, otherwise it will also lead to retting roots.

4. Harvest management

The general ripening time of Radix Pseudostellariae is in the summer every year, after it enters the mature stage. The aboveground parts of some mature Radix Pseudostellariae will gradually turn yellow. At this time, we should do a good job of keeping seeds and harvest in time. When harvesting, you can't choose rainy days to prevent excessive humidity and affect the storage of Radix Pseudostellariae. Avoid touching the bud head during harvest to ensure the integrity of Radix Pseudostellariae. First of all, the above ground part should be removed, and then the underground root should be excavated, cleaned, and then exposed to the sun to evaporate water.

The above is a brief introduction to the main points of field management of Prince ginseng. The cultivation of Radix Pseudostellariae needs us to strengthen the management, otherwise it will have a great impact on its quality and yield. That's all for today's introduction.
