1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: it is a warm variety, which can be maintained at 15 to 25 degrees. Its distribution range also includes relatively northerly areas, so its cold resistance is very good. However, too muggy environment will damage its health, so it cannot be placed in a place with poor ventilation and very high temperature

2. Light: Wild chicory will be distributed in places with sufficient sunshine, which shows that its requirements for sunshine are still high, so try not to let the sunshine be too weak, otherwise it will affect its growth and quality. In case of too strong light, it is best to shade

3. Watering: when chicory grows fast, it needs more water. It needs to be supplemented in time, and it's best to water it thoroughly. But in the rainy season, you also need to remember to drain the waterlogging. Don't accumulate too much water. If it is dormant, it cannot be watered too much

4. Fertilization: chicory doesn't need much fertilizer. As long as there is enough nutrition in the soil, it doesn't need much topdressing at ordinary times

2、 Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: sowing method can be used. About a week before sowing, the selected seeds need to be placed in a ventilated place for a day or two, which can effectively improve the germination rate. Generally speaking, it is suitable to sow seeds from June to August. In the matrix, a certain amount of base fertilizer shall be mixed and turned evenly. It can be sown by "direct seeding", and sufficient water shall be poured after sowing, which shall also be uniform

2. Pruning: usually, some dry and aging leaves can be cut off in time; In addition, too dense leaves that affect ventilation and light transmission are also cut off. Then there is the pruning of flowers, mainly after flowering

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Disease: there is "downy mildew", which is very harmful. It's best to prevent and control it before it happens. For example, chlorothalonil can be sprayed once every ten days or half a month. After the occurrence, it can be treated with Anke classification. In addition, there may be "rot disease", which is often controlled by methyltobuzin. It is best to disinfect the seeds, so that the probability of getting sick will be reduced

2. Pests: there are not many pests at ordinary times, which can be prevented in advance

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: although it tastes bitter, it is non-toxic and is still a medicinal material

2. Whether it can be raised at home: it is not an ornamental plant, and it is not very common to raise it at home
