Methods of propagating Tili spp.
Propagate by seeds. It is generally advisable to sow seeds before and after the autumnal equinox. Do not plant seeds too late after the cold dew. If you sow seeds too late, the growth and development period of the current year will be short. The plants will bolt and bloom before they are fully developed in the second year. The growth period will be short and the yield will be low. Tingli is prone to sclerotinia. You should choose seeds that are harvested in the same year, disease-free, and have full kernels. Soak them in 15% salt water for 20 minutes before sowing.
The seeds are small and sticky. After soaking, they tend to stick together and form a ball. Use a small amount of dry fine sand or plant ash to mix or rub the seeds to separate them so that they can be sown evenly. Use 250-300 grams of seed per acre, add 200 kilograms of plant ash, mix well repeatedly, add 500 kilograms of human and animal urine and mix well to become seed ash.
When sowing, dig a nest with a row spacing of 20-25 cm, a nest width of 3-6 cm, and a nest depth of 3-5 cm. The bottom of the nest should be flat and not too deep, and then spread the seed ash evenly in each nest. Sprinkle a handful into the soil and there is no need to return it to the soil.
