Cowhide, also known as leaf beet, thick-skinned cabbage, light-skinned cabbage, etc., is a kind of leaf beet with three varieties: white stalk, green stalk and red stalk. Cowhide is not only edible, but also a green feed raw material in various animal breeding, and because of its unique appearance, it also has a certain ornamental function. The editor of the rural rich network will now make scientific management of cowhide vegetables: after the emergence of cowhide vegetables, seedlings should be planted in time, 2 ~ 3 leaves should be planted once, 4 ~ 6 leaves should be planted, and the spacing between plants should be 20 ~ 750 px. In case of early growth, more water should be given, and timely drainage should be made in rainy season to prevent waterlogging. Weed and loosen the soil in time, and apply 8 ~10 kg urea every 667m2 in the middle growth period to promote its early growth and rapid growth. ?

The common diseases of cowhide are brown spot and leaf spot, which can be controlled by carbendazim or Bordeaux mixture. If pests are found, scientific drugs should be used to prevent them.

Harvest: 30 ~ 40 days after planting, the leaves can be peeled off for use, 3 ~ 5 leaves are peeled off for each plant, and 4 ~ 5 leaves are left for further growth. According to the season and growth situation, the number of leaves to be peeled is determined. When the growth is fast from June to July, it can be harvested for 4 to 5 times, and more than 4000kg of fresh leaves can be produced per 667m2.

Seed-keeping: at the beginning of 1 1 month, dig out the roots and cut off the leaves, dig holes and bury them to prevent freezing injury, and plant them at the beginning of April of the following year, with the row-to-plant spacing of 35 ~1/25px. With good management, seeds can be harvested in early July, and generally 50 ~ 60 seeds can be produced every 667m2.
