Sowing date of Chinese milk vetch seeds
Chinese milk vetch seeds are usually sown in spring and autumn, with the specific time from March to June in spring and 9-65438+ 10 in autumn. Chinese milk vetch likes warm environment, and the most suitable growth temperature is 15-30 degrees. Too high or too low temperature during sowing will affect seed germination and subsequent growth.
Planting method and steps of Chinese milk vetch seeds
1, seed treatment
To plant Chinese milk vetch, we must first choose high-quality seeds, and the seed quality directly determines the germination rate. Before sowing, Chinese milk vetch seeds should also be treated. First, dry them in the sun for four hours, then remove the wax from the surface of the seeds, then soak the seeds in salt water and throw away the floating withered and diseased seeds. Finally, the remaining seeds will germinate.
2. Soil requirements
Chinese milk vetch has low requirements on soil, because it is wild, but it is best to choose a cool and humid place near the water source when planting, and the soil should be fertile. It is also necessary to prepare the soil in advance, dig deep into the planting land, remove weeds and apply sufficient fertilizer.
3, timely sowing
Chinese milk vetch seeds are usually sown in early autumn. The temperature and humidity at this time are very suitable for seed germination, which is more conducive to seedling emergence. The choice of sowing date is very important. If it is too early, it will affect the growth of seedlings. If it is too late, the temperature will drop and the seeds will not germinate easily. So be sure to choose the sowing time.
4. Sowing method
The seeds of Chinese milk vetch can be sown directly. After all the preparations are done, the seeds should be evenly sown on the whole land, the sowing density should be controlled and the seeds should be evenly distributed, so that the seedlings can emerge more neatly. The completion of sowing does not mean that they can grow smoothly. After that, maintenance and scientific management should be done to make the seed germination rate higher.
