Causes of radish bifurcation and preventive measures

Radish bifurcation often occurs in the process of planting, although radish can be used after bifurcation, but the appearance is deformed, which will affect the beauty of goods, quality and price, especially the price after maturity. So radish planting must prevent bifurcation, so what to do after radish bifurcation? Let's get to know it.

First, the reason for bifurcation

1. Soil

Radish bifurcation is largely caused by the soil. Radish likes to grow in soil with deep soil layer and good drainage. If there are hard objects such as stones in the soil layer, it will hinder the growth of radish roots, resulting in the expansion and bending of radish lateral roots. Cause bifurcation.

2. Moisture

Radish should pay attention to maintain sufficient moisture in the growth process, not that the moisture should not be too high, if the moisture is very high for two days, it will cause poor soil permeability, inhibit radish main root hypertrophy, form a large lateral root, resulting in bifurcation.

3. Fertilization

Radish is fond of fertilizer, which needs a lot of fertilizer to grow. Many farmers like to apply farm manure when planting, but if farm manure is not fully mature, it will cause root burning, resulting in root bifurcation.

4. Temperature

Radish likes cold environment, and temperature is also one of the main reasons for its bifurcation. if the temperature is not suitable after sowing, the seedling growth is poor, and it is easy to form bifurcations in the later stage.

5. Insect pests

Underground pests are also one of the causes of bifurcation, pests will eat radish, inhibit the growth of the main root, resulting in lateral root expansion bifurcation or deformity.

II. Preventive measures

When planting, we must choose plots with deep soil layer and good drainage, remove stones and hard objects during soil preparation, maintain sufficient moisture in the growth process, but should not be too much, and pay attention to drainage in the rainy season. The farm manure must be fully ripened and foliar sprayed with Zhuangtieling to increase the nutrient flow, promote fruit development and expansion, do not stimulate cells, and reduce the occurrence of deformities and bifurcations. Before sowing, we should pay attention to plastic film mulching in the greenhouse, maintain a suitable temperature, and the occurrence of underground insect pests is to cooperate with insecticide root irrigation to effectively control pests.
