Planting period

The seeds of Polygonatum odoratum are suitable for autumn sowing. The collected seeds can be used for sowing after accelerating germination and increasing germination rate

October is a good time for sowing, not only because the newly collected seeds have not been stored and will not be damaged, but also because October has relatively good conditions such as temperature and light, which is conducive to seed germination

If the conditions are not suitable for planting in autumn, the planting time can be adjusted to about March of the next spring. This involves the storage of seeds

The seeds of Yuzhu can be stored in sand. Mix the seeds with wet sand and put them in a dark and dark place. Pay special attention to temperature control, 0 ℃ ~ 5 ℃

If the temperature is too high, it will cause seed germination or mildew. If the temperature is too low, it will cause seed frostbite and affect the germination rate of seeds after sowing

Land selection and preparation

The land for planting jade bamboo is very important, which is not only related to the budding rate, but also related to the quality of adult plants

The choice of land depends on the texture of the planting soil. It is best to choose sandy loam that can drain in time as its planting land. It is also necessary to ensure that the selected soil has a certain ventilation capacity to facilitate the normal germination of seeds. In addition, pay attention to the pH value of the soil, preferably slightly lower than 7, which is more suitable for its growth

Land selection also depends on the geographical location of the land to ensure that it can receive sufficient light and will not affect the normal growth of plants due to too strong sunlight

Before the seeds are placed in the soil, the soil needs to be turned deeply once to ensure that it is more than 30cm and bring enough air to the soil. When turning the soil, pick out the large stones in the soil to avoid affecting the germination of seeds

In addition, some base fertilizer needs to be applied to the soil, and the amount can be determined according to the specific planting quantity

Finally, the soil surface needs to be leveled and then adjusted into a high border of about 13cm

Planting method

Before planting, the furrow shall be dug horizontally on the border, with a depth of about 3cm every 10cm

Then spread the seeds evenly in the ditch, not too compact, about 10 ~ 12 grams of dry seeds per square meter. Then cover the seeds with soil until they are flush with the border surface. Then cover the soil with a layer of grass or leaves to keep warm and moist
