Points for attention in dividing eggplant seedlings

Eggplant in China's planting area is very large, but also on our table is a very common vegetable. When we plant eggplant, we need to do a good job in seedling stage to ensure that each strong seedling has sufficient growth space, but there are many places that need our attention when dividing seedlings. So what exactly are they? Today, Xiaobian brought you the precautions for eggplant seedling division. Let's have a look together!

1. Time of seedling division

When dividing seedlings for eggplant, the first thing we should pay attention to is to pay attention to the time of dividing seedlings. Usually eggplant seedlings should be divided into seedlings when they grow about three true leaves. Four days before the seedling division, we should also pay attention to the seedling refinement work and reduce the temperature by about 5 degrees. The main purpose is to ensure that eggplant seedlings can adapt to the temperature of the seedbed after seedling division, improve the survival rate after transplantation, and ensure that seedlings are normal. Especially in hotbed seedling, during the day to increase the appropriate ventilation, improve ventilation and lighting time.

2. Precautions

In the afternoon of the day before the seedlings, we should water the seedbed to increase the humidity of the soil appropriately, so as to facilitate the digging of seedlings. When digging seedlings, be careful not to hurt the roots as much as possible and transplant them with soil. After the seedlings are dug, they are graded according to their size and then transplanted separately. At the same time, care should be taken not to hurt the stems and leaves of seedlings, to ensure that the roots of seedlings can fully stretch in the soil, to avoid squeezing the roots into a ball, resulting in curling and kinking phenomenon. Then pay attention to prevent seedlings from wilting due to sun exposure. Therefore, when dividing seedlings, it is also necessary to cover the film for shading. Watering immediately after transplanting and watering again the next day is beneficial to the slow seedling of seedlings.

3. Method of seedling division

Eggplant sub-seedling method is also need us to pay more attention. It is best to be able to divide seedlings in nutrient pots, because nutrient pots can protect eggplant seedlings and their survival rate can reach almost 100% after planting. And if it is sub-seedlings, then to hole planting or ditch planting is the main. In the sub-seedling bed according to the row spacing of about 12 cm dig a good ditch, ditch depth to maintain about 4 cm, and then in the ditch irrigation small water. Wait until the water gradually penetrates into the soil to retain a little water, and then plant the seedlings according to the spacing of 10cm.

When planting, be careful to stick it to the ditch wall. Use the water in the ditch to stabilize the seedlings, and then do a good job of covering the soil after planting to seal the ditch. Finally, there is the method of nutrient soil sub-seedling, nutrient soil sub-seedling first need to pour sufficient water into the sub-seedling bed. Then according to the actual situation control good row spacing to draw a road, forming a nutrient soil square. Then insert a small hole in the center of each square, transplant the seedlings into the small hole, and finally cover the soil.

The above is a brief introduction to the precautions for eggplant seedlings. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to help everyone oh!
