One, choose a good seed

Perilla has white perilla, back to perilla and other varieties, but to perilla medicinal effect is the best, nutritional value is also high. General selection of broad leaves, leaf stalks thick, color green, aroma, high yield of perilla is appropriate.

Two, land fertilization

Deep turning the soil about 30 cm, leveling and raking, applying rotted stable manure, compost, etc., mixed with the soil fully, per mu of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium composite fertilizer 50 kg, and then make the border. Border width of 1.2 meters, border length of about 20 meters, border stalk width of 40 cm, border stalk height of 30 cm.

Three, seed treatment

Perilla seeds are short-lived, germination rate is only about 50%. Mix the seeds with warm water at about 40 ℃, put them in a net bag and put them in running water for 1 day, until the water feels slightly resistant when squeezed out by hand. Then put into the greenhouse at about 25 ℃ to germinate, when the seeds have about 80% dew white can be sown.

Setting seedlings should choose thick, leafy, disease-free seedlings. If it is for leaf or vegetable perilla, the plant spacing is controlled at about 15 cm × 25 cm; if it is for ridge or garden ridge perilla, the plant spacing is controlled at about 25 cm × 35 cm.

Six, field management

Perilla long growing period, harvest time is long, to often remove diseased leaves, old leaves, in order to facilitate ventilation and light.

Seven, the control of pests and diseases

Perilla growth period is susceptible to aphids, cyprinid, stem borers and other hazards, should be timely prevention and treatment with drugs. Available 40% Rogaine emulsion 1500 times liquid or 2.5% dichlorvos emulsion 2000 times liquid for spraying.
