The method of planting water spinach is:
1. Planting time
Wag spinach is generally sown in spring and harvested in summer or autumn. Under natural conditions The most suitable time for sowing is around May. The temperature and humidity after sowing are conducive to the growth of water spinach. If it is grown in a greenhouse, there is no need to be picky about the time. Sowing can be done all year round.
2. Propagation soil
Before sowing water spinach, the land must be plowed, clean up debris, etc. in the flat field, and remove stones, Grass roots and other debris that hinder plant development must be pulled out, and if there are any remnants of previously planted crops, sufficient base fertilizer, mainly decomposed fertilizer, should be applied to the soft soil.
3. Seed germination
The shell of water spinach seeds is hard and the cortex is tough, so it will be difficult for the seeds to germinate and the germination will be very slow. It needs to be germinated in advance to ensure The seeds can develop smoothly and on time. Just soak the seeds in warm water at about 20-30 degrees Celsius for about 6-7 hours and take them out. At this time, the seeds have softened.
4. Sowing and maintenance
After preparing the germinated seeds and soft and fertile soil, you can start sowing. Generally, you can sow about 2 kilograms per acre of land. Pay attention to the seeds to be evenly distributed in the soil. After sowing, cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil, water them regularly, and wait for them to take root and germinate before topdressing.
