Lotus root is a very popular vegetable that is rich in nutrients, such as protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. In China, lotus root has been cultivated for thousands of years, and as people's demand for lotus root continues to increase, the yield of lotus root has become increasingly important. However, the planting process of lotus roots is easily affected by the weather, especially during the rainy season, the growth of lotus roots will be greatly affected. Therefore, in order to increase the yield of lotus roots, we need to use special tarpaulins for lotus root cultivation.

What is a special tarpaulin for lotus root planting?

The special tarpaulin for lotus root planting is a special material that can effectively prevent rainwater from penetrating into the soil, thereby maintaining the humidity and temperature of the soil and promoting the growth and development of lotus roots. This kind of tarp is usually made of polyethylene material, which has strong durability and anti-aging properties.

How to use waterproof cloth for lotus root planting?

Using a special tarpaulin for lotus root planting is very simple. You only need to follow the following steps:

1. Lay the tarpaulin in the lotus root planting area, making sure to cover the entire planting area and seal the edges. Partially buried in the soil to avoid rainwater penetration.

2. Dig lotus root planting holes on the tarpaulin. Usually the diameter of each hole is 10-15 cm and the depth is 20-30 cm.

3. Plant the lotus root in the hole, and then fill the hole with soil to ensure that the roots of the lotus root are completely covered.

4. Cover the lotus roots with a layer of organic fertilizer with a thickness of 5-10 cm, and then water them thoroughly with water.

5. During the growth process of lotus roots, regularly check the status of the tarpaulin. If there is any damage or aging, replace it in time.

Advantages of special waterproof cloth for lotus root planting

Using special waterproof cloth for lotus root planting has the following advantages:

1. Increase the yield of lotus root. The tarpaulin can maintain the humidity and temperature of the soil, promote the growth and development of lotus roots, and thereby increase the yield of lotus roots.

2. Reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. Tarps prevent rainwater from penetrating into the soil and reduce soil moisture, thereby reducing the occurrence of pests and diseases.

3. Save water resources. Since tarps retain soil moisture, they waste less water and save money on water bills.

4. Increase soil fertility. Covering with tarpaulin can prevent the loss of nutrients in the soil, thereby increasing soil fertility and providing better conditions for the growth of lotus roots.
