Soybean seedling planting method step diagram Soybean seedling planting time and method

When planting soybeans, you need to choose seeds that are round, plump, healthy and disease-free, and soak them in clean water for 4-6 hours. Then wrap the soybean seeds with a moist paper towel and place them in an environment with a temperature of about 20 degrees to promote rapid germination of the soybeans.

Soybean seedling planting conditions

Soybeans are suitable for growing in soft, fertile, and well-drained soil . When planting soybeans, you need to use a hoe to plow the land to a depth of 22-25 cm, and combine inter-cultivation with base fertilizer. You can choose well-rotted farmyard manure, organic fertilizer, and superphosphate to promote vigorous growth of soybeans.

How to plant soybean seedlings

1. Variety selection

The most important thing about soybean planting is to adapt to local conditions, starting from the local climate conditions and environmental factors, choose the appropriate geology and climate, and then choose the corresponding varieties for planting. When choosing healthy seeds, try to choose some varieties with strong drought resistance and insect resistance .

2. Seed selection

Before sowing soybeans, there is a very critical step, which is to select healthy seeds. You can try to pick out all the moldy and diseased seeds , and the remaining seeds are basically full of grains .

3. Sowing time

The sowing time of soybean should be selected according to the local climate, which can be around June . At this time, the weather is slightly better, the humidity is higher, and it is not too hot. Sowing can be done while watering, which can facilitate its integration with the soil and make it easier for our seedlings to survive.

4. Reasonable density planting

When planting soybeans, we need to allow a reasonable spacing between seedlings. If you are planting the same type of soybeans, you must pay attention to the following principle: plant them densely in warm places and sparsely in cold places .

5. Land preparation management

Land preparation must be meticulous, and we cannot be too careless. We must deep-turn the previous soil in advance , not just on the surface, but at least 20 cm . Only after careful and even turning of the soil can our soil become loose, and the roots of soybeans can develop faster and go deep into the ground.

6. Weed control methods

Weeding should be done well in soybean planting to effectively ensure the growth of soybeans. If the weeds are not removed in time, the yield and quality of soybeans will not be improved.

We can spray some appropriate amount of herbicide in the bean seedlings, but you must pay attention to the usage and dosage. Spraying too much will also affect the growth of our soybeans. And we must distinguish the types of weeds in the field and spray them in a targeted manner. It does not mean that one spray can kill all the weeds.

7. Storage

When we have a very rich harvest of soybeans, we need to dry them and remove the pods . Then the beans can be stored in the storage room for preservation .

Key points for high-yield management of soybean seedlings

After planting soybeans, the germination status should be observed in time. If a lack of seedlings is found, replanting should be carried out in time , or thinning should be combined with transplanting with soil to supplement the seedlings.

When the soybeans grow 2-3 leaves, thinning and transplanting should be carried out . The density depends on the fertility of the soil and the variety. For spot sowing, leave 2 plants in each hole; for row sowing, the plant spacing is 20 cm.
