1、 Seed collection

In June every year, its fruit will grow and mature. At this time, we can pick it, and then dry it a little. When the fruit splits, we can take out the seeds inside. In addition, remember that when harvesting seeds, if you want to plant in the same year, you can harvest them immediately. If you want to wait for planting, it's best to harvest them in spring and autumn

2、 Sowing time

In Changsha, you can plant it from early August to early October. If you want spring sowing, the specific time is the best in early March. If you sow in summer, the specific time is the best in June

3、 Sow

After harvesting the seed, we can plant it. When planting, we can use the method of direct seeding or transplanting after sowing and seedling raising. Because its seed skin is not easy to absorb water, we'd better soak it with water for 24 hours before planting, and then we can plant it. When all the seeds are planted, cover them with a layer of soil. If they are planted in summer, cover them with a layer of sunscreen to prevent too strong light. Then you can wait for it to germinate

4、 Later maintenance

If you plant it in the way of sowing, when the small seedling grows to 6 to 8 cm high, start to give it inter seedling, so as to increase the growth space. Then, when the seedling grows to 20 cm high, we can start to fix the seedling. After that, we have to water it properly and let it enjoy the light. Soon, its plant will grow 5 to 6 leaves. At this time, we can get leaves to eat

In addition, it should be noted that if you set the value very early, you can harvest its leaves about 3 times before winter, and peel them every 10 days or so in spring. When peeling, you usually peel off 3 to 4 leaves each time, leaving 3 to 4 large leaves, and then apply fertilizer to it frequently, so that it can grow up quickly
