How to maintain the Root system of vegetables in Winter

Vegetables are indispensable food in our daily life, there are many kinds of vegetables, and now the planting area in our country is also very large. When growing vegetables, we should have different conservation priorities according to the season. Among them, because the temperature in winter is relatively low, so we should pay attention to the maintenance of vegetable roots. So how to maintain the roots of vegetables in winter? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Mulching time

In order to ensure that vegetables can survive the winter safely, plastic film mulching is an indispensable work when vegetables are overwintering. However, we should pay attention to control the mulching time of plastic film, and then cover the plastic film after the vegetables are planted. It is necessary to ensure that the lateral root of the main root is deeply rooted to stabilize the vegetables. After planting, if the mulching time is too early, the surface of the soil will be relatively moist. The moist environment will enhance the growth ability of capillary roots, while too many capillary roots will inhibit the growth of main root and lateral root and affect the yield.

2. Planting and logistics hoe

After the vegetable seedlings are planted in winter, we should mainly do a good job of soil hoeing in order to promote the growth of the main and lateral roots of the plant. It is necessary to hoe the soil regularly and cut off the capillary roots that grow in the surface layer of the soil. Because the capillary root is easy to be disturbed by environmental factors, and lose the ability to absorb nutrients. The growth and nutrient absorption of the plant mainly depends on the main and lateral roots. Therefore, the capillary roots should be cut off regularly to ensure the growth of the main and lateral roots. At the same time, if the soil is hoed reasonably, it can also reduce the humidity of the topsoil and promote the deep penetration of the main and lateral roots.

3. Water management

In winter, after the vegetable plants are planted, the management should be strengthened to slow down the seedlings. Therefore, watering work is very important, we have to delay the number of watering and the amount of watering. Prevent excessive moisture in the surface layer of the soil, ensure that vegetables can grow normally after planting, and promote safe overwintering. Moreover, it can also make the root of the plant deep into the soil, so that the root absorbs water and nutrients from the deep soil, which is conducive to the cultivation of strong main and lateral roots and enhance the growth ability of the plant.

4. Rational use of rooting agents

Some vegetables are growing. The rooting ability is relatively poor due to various reasons. Therefore, the use of rooting agents is also common, but rooting agents should be used in the slow seedling stage of plant planting or when the root growth ability is weak. If used improperly, especially when the ground temperature is too low, it will cause the root system to expand very quickly. Nutrition will change from the aboveground part to the root, resulting in insufficient root nutrition and affecting plant growth. As long as the effect of rooting agent is reduced, then the plant nutrition is insufficient, and the roots will age rapidly. Therefore, rooting agents should be used reasonably to ensure the normal growth of plants.

The above is a brief introduction to how to maintain the roots of vegetables in winter. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
