2, choose a place
Yanghuo ginger like fertile, loose, moist, cool environment, more tolerant of shade, do not tolerate high temperatures and strong light, a cultivation of many years of growth, a year and many times harvest. Therefore, large-scale planting is appropriate to choose the terrain is high and dry, can drain and irrigate the sandy loam planting, low-lying land should not be planted.
3, planting specifications
Plant spacing is 40cm × 15cm, planting about 7000 plants per mu or mu with 150-200 kilograms of seed root.
4, breeding and sowing
①Yanghuo can be bred by seed breeding and tuber breeding, of which the germination rate of seed breeding is low and the seedling period is long, it is generally not recommended.
②The tuber propagation method, with high germination rate and short seedling period, has higher economic benefits. First of all, the sun lotus tuber cut into multiple pieces, each piece should have at least 2-3 young shoots, these tubers are seed pieces.
3 in the ground to open the depth of 10 cm ditch, in the bottom of the ditch light application of bottom fertilizer, and then watering casting bottom water.

In order to fertilize the ground, to ensure that the next year's high yield, combined with deep plowing mu 3000 kg of farmyard manure.
②Plowing
The seedling period is a large distance between the rows, the gap is more, it is easy to breed weeds, should be timely plowing weed. In the middle, the plow should be shallow, so as not to damage the underground stems. After 3 years of planting, underground stems and roots wrong longitudinal overlap, growth potential is weak, appropriate deep tillage, digging off part of the underground stems and old roots, can promote the development of new roots, so that the senescent plant is renewed luxuriant growth.
③Reasonable watering
Watering according to the weather and moisture discretion, the growth period of water demand, should be a week or so watering, keep the soil moist; Yang lotus harvest end of watering.
