1、 Basic introduction

Zanthoxylum bungeanum, also known as rattan pepper, is named for its long vines. Its roots, stems, leaves and fruits can be used as traditional Chinese medicine. It has the equivalent functions of preventing wind and expelling cold, relieving pain and promoting qi. It has a good effect on the treatment of rheumatic bone pain. The sowing period includes spring and autumn, but mainly in autumn

2、 Breeding method

1. Selection of seedling land: the planting place of bamboo leaf pepper is preferably a place where it is not easy to accumulate water, can be irrigated, ventilated and transparent, the soil layer is deep, loose, fertile, humid and well drained, and the lighting conditions near the planting place should be sufficient

2. Soil: Zanthoxylum bungeanum has no strict requirements on soil pH, and grows well in neutral or acidic soil. Try to choose the planting place of bamboo leaf pepper as far as possible, which is a deep, soft and fertile neutral or acidic soil

3. Moisture: bamboo leaf pepper prefers a humid growth environment. In the growth process, it has a high demand for water. It should be watered frequently to keep the soil moist. However, it should be noted that in case of heavy rainfall, drainage should be carried out in time to avoid ponding affecting its growth and development

4. Fertilization: mainly nitrogen fertilizer, supplemented by biological fertilizer. Pay attention to the dosage when applying fertilizer, and take a small amount and more application as the benchmark. Prevent excessive fertilization from causing fertilizer damage, and occasionally meet the nutritional needs of its growth through external Topdressing and micro fertilizer

3、 Maintenance skills

1. Seedling land consolidation: the planting land must be turned over deeply. Let the deep soil mature, enhance the permeability of the soil, improve the ability of fertilizer and water conservation, and create a good growth environment for the seedling raising of bamboo leaf pepper

2. Soil loosening and weeding: soil loosening and weeding shall be carried out in time. Maintain the good permeability of seedling land, reduce the evaporation of water, reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests, and avoid the competition between weeds and seedlings for fertilizer

3. Pests: because the growth environment of bamboo leaf pepper is relatively warm and humid, the probability of diseases and pests is very high. The most common pest is rust, which generally requires pesticide sprinkling to solve the pest. The degree of insect damage is relatively light, so it can be caught manually; If the degree is high, the centralized treatment is carried out by spraying pesticides
