The best time to plant buckwheat

Buckwheat heads are mostly distributed in the southern region, and the best planting time is September-October. In fact, it is not easy for buckwheat heads to germinate. When planting buckwheat heads, the temperature cannot be too low. You must know that its growth speed is not fast. If the temperature is still low, its growth speed will be even slower.

Methods and key points of planting buckwheat

1. Planting buckwheat requires appropriate fertilization and land preparation first. When we prepare the land, we need to level the ground and apply the base fertilizer directly into the soil. Then plant the buckwheat seeds into the soil and cover them with a layer of fine soil to promote germination and keep them warm.

2. When we plant buckwheat heads, it is best to choose seeds of the same size. When planting these seeds in the soil, we need to pay attention to the distance. Generally, it is best to plant about 15-20cm between each buckwheat head. Planting at this distance will allow the buckwheat heads to have enough growth space and promote germination.

Key points for field management of buckwheat

1. Start applying fertilizer after the buckwheat heads emerge. Apply decomposed human manure or compound fertilizer once every 15-20 days until the next year's harvest. Pay attention to the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently and control the amount and frequency of fertilizers, otherwise fertilizer damage will occur, which will lead to a decrease in yield.

2. Buckwheat likes a humid environment. Keep the soil moist during the growing season. Water it every 3-5 days when there is no rain. Water it thoroughly each time and do not water halfway. Note that it cannot tolerate waterlogging. Pay attention to drainage after heavy rain to prevent long-term waterlogging.
