1. Time: Cowpea planting can be done from April to May every spring, when the temperature is above 10 degrees, which is conducive to plant germination. 2. Planting: Select seeds with full particles and sow them in the soil, 3-4 seeds per hole. 3. Build a bracket: When the cowpea seedlings grow to 20 cm high, build a human-shaped bracket, and then pull the stems and vines onto the bracket. How to plant cowpeas
1. Planting time
The best planting time of cowpeas is from April to May every spring, because the temperature at this time is stable The temperature is above 10 degrees, and the light is relatively suitable, which is conducive to the germination and growth of cowpeas. Before planting cowpeas, the soil must be plowed to remove weeds and broken roots in the soil to reduce the probability of cowpea diseases.
2. Planting method
When planting cowpeas, you need to select undamaged and bright-colored seeds, and then carry out ridge work to ensure that there are ridges in the soil. The spacing should be about 70 cm, and then the cowpea seeds can be sown in the soil. 3-4 seeds can be buried at a time, and finally covered with 3 cm of thin soil.
3. Build a bracket
When cultivating cowpeas, you need to build a herringbone bracket for the plant when it grows to 20 cm high, and install a bracket on each bracket. A horizontal line is drawn between them, and then the stems and vines of the cowpea are led to the support to facilitate the growth of the plant. The diseased and weak vines, leggy vines and withered yellow vines of the cowpea must be cut off to avoid the loss of excess nutrients.
