2. Red leaf heather planting method

1. Selection of seedlings

When buying seedlings, we must choose a good reputation, suppliers can provide high-quality after-sales service, to ensure pure varieties, reduce production risks.

2. Selection and arrangement of nursery land

The soil of planting area should be fertile, loose, slightly acidic to neutral, easy to irrigate and well drained. Before planting, 3000 kg of decomposed manure and 50 kg of calcium superphosphate are applied per mu, the soil is tilled at a depth of more than 25 cm, and underground pests are controlled with pesticides. Before leveling the soil, it needs to be tilled, and then the drainage ditch is opened to make the seedbed, and the bed width is about 1m.

3. Seedling transplanting

March-April in spring and October-November in autumn are generally determined by local climatic conditions. The planting spacing was determined according to nursery time and cultivation objectives. The annual shrubs cultivated according to the plan are sold, and the suitable plant spacing is 35cm×35cm or 40cm×40cm, about 3000 plants per mu. When transplanting seedlings, carefully remove the packaging or nutrient bowl to ensure the integrity of the root soil ball, dig holes at fixed points; use fine mounds at the root, and make the root stretch, gently compact. After planting, the root fixing water shall be poured thoroughly in time.

4. Cultivation management

Water should be poured once 3-4 days after transplanting, and then every 10 days or so; in case of continuous rainy days, water should be drained in time. After about 15 days, the seedlings can be fertilized after the seedling stage. In spring, urea is applied about 5 kg per mu every half month; in summer and autumn, compound fertilizer is applied once every half month, 5 kg per mu; in winter, decomposed organic fertilizer is applied once, 1500 kg per mu, and it is better to apply it in furrows. Fertilization should be based on the principle of thin fertilizer and frequent application. It should not be used too much at one time to avoid damaging roots and burning seedlings. Weeding and loosening should be done in time.

5, pest control

Photinia rubra has strong disease resistance and no destructive diseases and insect pests have been found. However, if not properly managed or nursery environment is poor, gray mold, leaf spot disease or by scale insects may occur. Botrytis cinerea can be prevented by spraying 50% carbendazim 1000 times solution, and 50% zineb 800 times solution can be used for prevention and control during the onset period. Leaf spot disease can be controlled by 300-400 times solution of 50% carbendazim or 300-400 times solution of thiophanate. Scale insects can be sprayed with dimethoate emulsion 200 times or 800-1000 times.

6, out of the garden

When the seedlings grow to the greening specification requirements, they can be taken out of the nursery. Water should be poured once a week before nursery, which is conducive to seedling emergence. The soil ball should be as big as possible when seedling is raised, and it should be wrapped with straw soaked in water. 5 or 10 finished seedlings are stacked in a bundle and stacked on a transport vehicle covered with tarpaulin.
