1. Temperature: it is widely distributed in China, so it has strong adaptability to temperature. Generally speaking, it will grow better between 10 degrees and 30 degrees. In addition, it has certain cold resistance, but breeding in very northerly places needs to be cold proof

2. Light: Du Zhong likes sunshine. During its growth period, it needs to be in a place with sufficient astigmatism, but there can be no strong light. In summer, it has to be shaded, and the degree should be about 50% or 60%. In other seasons, you should also pay a little attention when there is strong light

Before sowing, it needs 20 to 30 degrees of water to soak for a period of time, which can also improve the germination rate. Specifically, the method of "drill sowing" is more appropriate, and the row spacing can be between 20 and 25 cm. After sowing, a layer of grass should be covered to facilitate their germination

2. Pruning: the pruning of Eucommia ulmoides is mainly in spring, which is the work of picking the heart. Too dense leaves can also be disposed of slightly

3、 Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: the more common is "root rot", which is more common from June to August. Tobuzin and other chemicals can be used to control it. There is also "bacterial wilt", which can be treated with some fungicides, such as carbendazim

2. Insect pests: the main species are "beetle" and "leopard bark moth". The degree of harm will be more serious. It is necessary to eliminate their adults and clean their eggs at the same time
