Vegetable winged bean can also be called winged bean, winged bean and carambola bean. Pods are rectangular tetrahedrons with edges, belonging to annual or perennial herbs. Winged beans are extremely nutritious. Young leaves and pods can be used as vegetables, and root tubers can also be eaten. The seed is rich in protein, which is a nutritious and healthy vegetable with high development prospect. Winged beans are also famous vegetables in daily life. It belongs to perennial herbs. Its tuberous roots and tender pod leaves are edible. It contains many nutrients, especially some protein, with high content. It is widely planted in some areas of our country, and the planting range is relatively wide. However, it is difficult in the process of planting, if you want to plant winged beans better.

growing environment

To plant winged beans, we must first choose a plot suitable for planting winged beans. In fact, in the whole growth process, the requirements for soil are not very great. Generally, soil can be planted, but when choosing soil, don't choose hardened soil with serious pests and diseases. If we can choose nutrient-rich soil, we will get better growth and development, and also improve product quality and yield. After the land is selected, it must be ploughed and leveled.

1, sowing and seedling raising

Winged beans are mostly propagated by seeds, and stem cuttings and root tubers can be used as propagation materials;

In the Yangtze river basin, seedlings are raised in hotbeds or nutrient pots from the end of March to the beginning of April, and can be transplanted and planted in the first half of April.

Step 2 plant

Winged beans have few branches in the early stage and can be planted closely.

The planting density of winged bean is: plant row spacing is 0.3m×0.5m；;

Planting method of winged bean: single hole and two plants can be used to improve early yield.

3. Tian Tuan management

Winged beans need more phosphorus and nitrogen fertilizer in the early stage; There are more potassium and nitrogen fertilizers at flowering stage, that is, more potassium is needed, followed by nitrogen and the least phosphorus;

The winged bean itself has strong nitrogen fixation ability, so the base fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer and phosphate fertilizer;

Applying less nitrogen fertilizer during the vegetative growth period of winged beans can effectively prevent the stems and vines from growing too vigorously, and at the same time keep the soil moist, and cultivate the vines after pulling them out;

Appropriate application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer after flowering;

During the flowering and fruiting period, the lateral vines should be properly removed or the core should be picked and the leaves should be thinned.

? Step 4 harvest

Edible winged bean pods can be harvested 15-20 days after flowering, and the winged bean pods reserved for food should be harvested in 40-50 days;

Because winged bean pods are easy to crack when they mature, it is necessary to collect seeds in time and store them for later use. ?
