The correct way to plant sweet potato seedlings starts from selecting seedlings, tilling and ridging, planting and stepping on ridges, applying fertilizer and watering, and controlling pests and diseases.

1, select seedlings

Often select some high yield sweet potato seedlings, generally recommended that the day of planting, if you want to plant the next day, you need to sprinkle water on the sweet potato seedlings to moisturize.

2, plowing and ridging

Dividing the plot into a number of ridges, each with a width of 50 centimeters and a height of 25 centimeters, the width and height are not fixed, and can be appropriately floated. After the completion of the ridge, on the top of the ridge to open a seed ditch, about 25 cm depth, and then into the seed ditch into the farmyard fertilizer as a bottom fertilizer, generally up to one-third of the ditch can be sprinkled. After the bottom fertilizer is applied, cover with some soil to cover the bottom fertilizer, and then you can plant sweet potato seedlings.

3, flat planting stamping

Sweet potato planting generally have two ways, one is vertical planting, the other is flat planting, but basically with flat planting method, that is, a sweet potato seedling flat on the inside of the planting ditch, buried soil, leaving a small half of the exposed soil surface can be. After planting, you also need to step on the sweet potato ridge to compact the soil, which can improve the survival rate of sweet potato seedlings.

4, fertilization and watering

Sweet potato seedlings planted down, usually about 10 days, sweet potato seedlings wake up, this period, we do not have to fertilize, if special sun, and also have the conditions, you can in the evening, in the roots of the sweet potato seedlings dripping some water.

5, control of pests and diseases

In order not to consume too much nutrients, we have to smooth out the sweet potato seedlings in the field, clear the sweet potato vines in the field in one direction, so that they can grow in one direction, and in the process, you can remove the excess branches and leaves. Sweet potatoes are susceptible to pests and diseases during the growing period, which need to be detected in time and sprayed for intervention so as not to affect the yield in the later stage.
