How to plant reeds

1. Planting through reed seeds.

Let’s first look at how to grow reeds from reed seeds. One is sowing. The seeds of reeds are hidden in the reed ears. After harvesting the reeds every year, we chop the reed ears and dry them for later use. The sowing season must be well controlled. Sow seeds around early May every year. Irrigate the reed field with water two days before sowing. After soaking for two days, drain the water and start sowing. The sowing density is 150 kilograms of seeds per hectare. When sowing, the seedlings should be spread evenly and ensure that each seed is buried in the soil. After that, field management must be strengthened to keep the irrigation height of the seed field below the height of the seedlings, and timely weeding and fertilization

Second, planting is carried out by transplanting reed seedlings.

When the seedlings grow to about 20 cm, they can be transplanted. The distance between transplanting reed seedlings should be maintained at a distance of 1 square meter per pit, and watering should be carried out in a timely manner after transplanting. The height of irrigation should be kept below the seedling body. As the seedling body grows, the height of irrigation should continue to increase. The third is harvest.

Planting reeds only once can yield years of benefits. Every year when the reeds mature, usually before winter, we only harvest the reeds above their roots. New reed seedlings will grow again after harvesting in the second year. After harvesting, it is necessary to clean up the scattered leaves on the water surface in time to prevent the rot of the reed roots.
