Preparation before sowing

Seed harvesting

It is suitable for sowing and reproduction, and seed collection and preservation are very important. From August to October every year, most of the mature inflorescences of fruits are cut off, dried to remove impurities, selected seeds, placed in a dry and cool place, and packaged in moisture-proof paper bags. Keep the seeds dry, away from light and well ventilated. The ambient temperature is 10 ~ 15 ℃, and the germination rate remains good after storage for 1 ~ 2A

Sowing season

The sowing of golden pheasant chrysanthemum can be carried out in spring and autumn, and the suitable temperature for germination is 15-20 ℃. Northeast China should pay attention to that autumn comes early and spring goes late. Therefore, spring can be postponed and autumn can be advanced

Seeding process

Matrix preparation

The seedbed should not be too wide and should be easy to operate. The matrix should be loose and breathable sandy loam

Sowing

The seeds of chrysanthema Dahua have small particles, so sowing can be adopted. The seeds can be mixed with sand and evenly sprinkled on the pre prepared seedbed. The seedbed should be about 15cm higher than the surrounding ground to facilitate drainage

Covering soil

After sowing the seeds, cover them with a thin layer and water them through

Watering

Watering should be uniform, and the best breeding conditions are to connect the water pipe with the sprinkler or feather spout. After watering, cover it with a straw curtain. In the future, we should often observe the humidity of the seedbed to keep the seedbed moist. We should not make the seedbed too dry or too wet

Seedling maintenance

Seeds can sprout 21 ~ 14 days after sowing. After the seedlings grow true leaves, apply nitrogen fertilizer once
