Alpinia officinarum is planted in the vernal equinox or Tomb-Sweeping Day, and it will affect germination if it is too late. Soft and hydrophobic soil can be used, and a little base fertilizer can be applied. Loosen the soil before planting to prevent soil hardening from causing seedling growth. Choose mature seeds with appropriate size and put them in the sun for two days to accelerate germination. Then plant the bud eyes of the seeds on both sides and cover them with fine soil. After that, keep a dry environment and wait for it to germinate.

First, planting time

Ginger is usually sown in spring, usually around the vernal equinox or Tomb-Sweeping Day. The time should not be later than long summer, otherwise high temperature will affect the germination of seeds and may also cause them to rot due to pests and diseases.

Second, choose the whole land.

Alpinia officinarum is suitable for growing in soft and hydrophobic soil. It is drought-tolerant and barren, so it does not require high soil fertility. If there is a certain amount of base fertilizer in the soil, it is also beneficial to its growth. The soil should not be too hard, otherwise it will affect the germination of seeds. Before planting, you can loosen the soil and break or throw away the big clods.

Third, seed selection and sowing.

Select Alpinia officinarum seeds with suitable size and hard texture. Such seeds are more mature and have higher germination rate. Sunbathing for one week after seed collection and 1-2 days before sowing can effectively accelerate germination. Plant the bud eyes of Alpinia officinarum to both sides and cover them with fine soil. If planted in a large area, the density should not be too high, and it can be arranged in zigzag.

Fourth, follow-up maintenance

In order to ensure the normal growth of seeds, proper watering and fertilization are essential. Because I am afraid of getting wet, I only water it when it is dry. If the basin soil is too wet, ventilation is needed to accelerate the evaporation of water. It is easy to get sick at seedling stage, so you can apply a little compound fertilizer, not too much fertilizer, to prevent burning roots. When autumn enters the growing season, you can apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and less nitrogen fertilizer.
