Codonopsis planting time and method

Planting time of Codonopsis pilosula

Codonopsis pilosula is usually best planted during the period from Frost Descent to Beginning of Winter. The environment at this time is suitable for the germination and growth of Codonopsis pilosula. Of course, due to different climate environments in each place, the specific planting time is also different.

How to plant Codonopsis pilosula

1. Site selection and land preparation

Codonopsis pilosula grows best in a loose, fertile soil with partial shade and partial sun, so when choosing a site, try to choose sandy loam with partial shade and partial sun for planting. After choosing a good site, deep plow the soil, then apply sufficient organic fertilizer, and it is best to level the soil in preparation for later planting.

2. Seed treatment

Select some fresh Codonopsis seeds harvested that year, then soak them in warm water at about 40 degrees, put the seeds in while stirring, soak them for another 5 minutes when the water temperature is not hot, then wash them with water, and rinse them with 15-degree warm water every three or four hours. After five or six days, you can sow them.

3. Sowing method

Sow the processed seeds evenly on the seedbed, cover them with a thin layer of soil, water them in small amounts, keep the soil moist, and be careful not to cause water accumulation. Then you can slowly wait for them to germinate.

Precautions for planting Codonopsis pilosula

After the Codonopsis seedlings emerge from the soil, the soil should be loosened and weeded. The soil should be loosened shallowly to avoid damaging the roots. When the seedlings are about 25-30 cm tall, a trellis should be erected in time to allow the stems and vines to climb and grow. This can increase ventilation and light transmission. After the branches and leaves are fully stretched, the Codonopsis will grow strong and improve its disease resistance.
