Fennel sowing method

1, selection of seed soaking

Before planting fennel, you need to pick out the seedlings or seeds with high yield and strong resistance to disease, and if you use the sowing method of planting, put the seeds into warm water for a day and a night, and then use water to rinse off the epidermis. Rinse them well, and then place them at 25 degrees to germinate.

2, the soil is suitable

3, sowing seedlings

Take out the germinated fennel seeds, sow them evenly in the gully, and cover a layer of fine soil 2 cm thick on top, then water well to keep the substrate moist, to help the seeds come out quickly, and if planted in the early spring, you need to cover a layer of straw.

4, seedling management

After the fennel seedlings, pay attention to remove the weeds between the ridge, to reduce the loss of nutrients and water, found that the weak seedling, residual seedling and diseased seedling after the timely pull out, and then replenish the thriving seedlings, pay attention to the weeds and diseased seedling to be taken away from the field to destroy, so as not to breed underground pests.
