Propagation methods of Chenopodium quinoa

Quinoa plant is like gray vegetable, and its ear is like sorghum ear, which is native to the middle altitude of America, but it can be grown in a wide range and can also be planted on the plateau. Quinoa is not widely planted in China at present, but quinoa contains a variety of unique nutrients. It is a kind of health food with high protein and low sugar. At present, if the economic benefits of planting quinoa should be very good, the common reproduction method of planting quinoa is to sow and reproduce, just like wheat and other food crops. The method and process of sowing quinoa is the main content of the article.

1. Select the place

Quinoa likes the sun, should be planted in the sun, higher ground, not in the rice field, to ensure that the soil is ventilated, fertilizer, the planting land should be well ventilated, but not in the windward, easy to lodge. Deep soil is needed to facilitate root growth and absorption of nutrients. The previous crop had better be planted with land such as sweet potatoes.

2. Land preparation

After the beginning of spring, you can turn the soil to apply a large amount of base fertilizer, some manure, plant ash mixed into the ground. Wait until half a month before sowing, you can fine cultivated land, cultivated land will all fine soil. Do not plough the soil below, plough the upper soil fine, keep it fluffy, apply some compound fertilizer to stabilize the soil, spray disinfectant, and then dry the ground.

3. Seed treatment

Seeds can be sowed without soaking seeds and sowing seeds directly, but in order for seeds to germinate neatly, grow consistently, and germinate faster, you can soak seeds in warm water of 45 degrees for 30 hours, soak them in warm water of 25 degrees for 25 hours, remove and drain water for 25 hours, wrap them with a clean cloth and put them in an incubator of about 25 degrees. They will sprout after about three days, and they can be sown after 90 percent of the time. Direct seeding in order to prevent underground pests from eating seeds, seeds must be mixed with chemicals to ensure the smooth germination of seeds.

4. Sowing seeds

Quinoa is usually sown in May in warm areas and can be sown in April in advance, sowing about two jin of seeds per mu. To sow seeds, dig a small hole 10 centimeters apart in a straight line, sow 2 to 3 quinoa seeds in each hole, and cover the soil 2 centimeters deep after sowing to prevent wild animals from digging out the seeds and eating them. It's also good for germination. The distance of each line is about 30 centimeters.

5. Seedling emergence management

After emergence, inspection, found that did not emerge seedlings should be replanted once, replanted once, replanted in cloudy days when there is no rain. Watering in time after seedling emergence, watering once a day to promote growth, one week after seedling emergence, it is necessary to reduce the amount of water to avoid diseases. After that, you can refine the seedlings, without watering or fertilizing, and you can refine the seedlings for a week.

The reproduction method of quinoa is to sow and reproduce, and the whole process of sowing is the above specific description, in which there may be some specific details that need to be found and summarized in the actual production to improve the breeding methods. I hope I will give you some help after reading.
