Generally, the cylinder soil used for planting lotus roots can be pollution-free, not too fat, or the soil of normal farmland, vegetable garden and orchard. ? Two weeks before planting, the selected barrel soil should be soaked in water. If you want to plant lotus roots well, of course, the first step is to choose good soil. Although the lotus root is an aquatic plant, the soil is indispensable and must be clayey soil. After retting, it becomes sludge, which is also the origin of "lotus leaves are muddy but not stained". It must be the kind of cylinder with no cracks, intact and very good quality, which is suitable for planting lotus roots. And the bigger the steel, the better, so the bigger the living space of lotus root, and the bigger and fuller the lotus root will be.

Lotus root likes fertilizer, not chemical fertilizer, but humus farmyard manure (if possible, you can dig some pond mud from the pond and put it in the jar, and then add fermented farmyard manure). Those who don't have that condition can also use their own garden soil and add some sand (the ratio is 2: 1), and friends who are inconvenient to dig pond mud can also prepare their own soil, usually choosing mature soil, such as garden soil or paddy soil. Plant ash and some decomposed farmyard manure can be added after digging back.

Dig a hole in the soil, which is big enough to put the lotus root bud on the lotus node. Lotus root buds were planted face down in the soil and the tail of lotus root leaked out. Then water it. Don't water too much for the first time, just over the soil. Water according to the growth of lotus root in the future. According to the number of lotus root seedlings brought back, we decided to dig several pits, plant lotus roots in the pits, bury them with soil, and water them directly after burying them. The transplanted lotus root is suitable for high temperature and placed in a sunny place, 15 to 25 degrees. Bricks and pastoral soil are best dried in the sun, which can play a role in disinfection and sterilization. It's easy to raise lotus roots. Just add some water to the tank often. Lotus root can kill two birds with one stone, enjoy the beautiful lotus and harvest the lotus root.
