1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: the temperature of curing it should be above 18 degrees. If it is lower than 18 degrees, the survival rate of plant cuttings is not high. If the temperature is higher than 25 degrees, the cutting of cuttings is easy to be infected and rotten, so it is OK to control the curing temperature between 18-25 degrees

2. Watering: its growth needs sufficient water. Watering can be done by spraying twice a day to keep the soil moist for a long time. In case of dry weather, it is necessary to increase the watering times. Before winter, it is necessary to do winter irrigation, which is conducive to the overwintering and rejuvenation of plants

3. Fertilization: before sowing, it is necessary to mix the soil with base fertilizer. It is best to use organic fertilizer or low nitrogen compound fertilizer. The amount of fertilization should be controlled to avoid excessive, otherwise it will cause plant overgrowth and non flowering in serious cases

4. Light: it is not resistant to strong light, so it needs appropriate shading. If the light is too strong, the temperature will rise, and the water loss of the plant will increase, which is not conducive to the survival of plant cuttings. After the cuttings of the plant take root, the light time can be gradually increased

2、 Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: if you reproduce, you can use sowing to reproduce. Sowing time is in spring and autumn. If sowing in spring in northern areas, the survival rate should be higher. When sowing seeds, put the seeds into the soil mixed with base fertilizer, cover them with thin soil and water enough. Generally, seedlings can emerge in a week

2. Pruning: in the process of growth, the flax seedlings should be pinched. Generally, the plants should be pinched when they grow to six to ten centimeters. This is to promote the growth of branches. The second pinching can be carried out one month after the first pinching

3、 Problem diagnosis

1. Insect pest: the plant is easy to be infected with flea beetle pest. If it is found, it can be sprayed with sumatrazine EC. It should be noted that the agent can only be used after dilution

2. Pathological changes: anthrax is a disease easily infected by plants. This disease may be infected from seedling emergence to maturity, but it usually occurs in the early stage of plant growth and will mainly harm the young roots and leaves of plants. If it is found, prochloraz EC needs to be sprayed for treatment

4、 Other issues

1. Edible: it can extract oil or be used as medicine

2. Other value: it can be used for weaving and making ecological mulch film
