Millet planting time

Millet is usually planted in April and May every year. However, the climate in the south is relatively warm, so it can be sown in February, while in the north it will be a little later and needs to be planted at the end of March. Therefore, the specific sowing time can be determined according to the local climate.

Millet Planting Method

1. Seed selection and germination: When planting millet, you need to choose high-quality seeds so that you can have a high yield. The seeds should be uniform in size and have a shiny color. Then you need to soak the seeds in warm water and you can sow them after the seeds turn white.

2. Planting soil: Millet has good adaptability and is generally planted in arable fields with fertile soil. The soil needs to be plowed before planting and sufficient base fertilizer should be applied.

3. Planting: When sowing millet, it is generally broadcasted. The seeds are evenly spread on the seedbed and then flattened into the soil.

Millet planting precautions

1. After sowing millet seeds, seedling management needs to be done well. When the seedlings grow 5-6 leaves, thinning out the seedlings is necessary in time, and weeding should also be carried out regularly.

2. Millet has a relatively high demand for water. It cannot lose water for a long time during its growth. Therefore, during the maintenance period, it is necessary to water it in time to keep the soil moist.
