When and how to plant mugwort

Mugwort planting time

Mugwort is usually planted in early spring, specifically from March to April each year, because this period is the best temperature period, neither too cold nor too hot, the temperature is suitable, and the air humidity is high, which is conducive to the germination and growth of seeds. It is best not to plant it in summer, as it is easy for mugwort to breed bacteria.

Mugwort Planting Method

1. Site selection

Mugwort is suitable for planting in loose, fertile, well-drained sandy soil rich in organic matter. The soil should be deep plowed in advance. The plowing height should be between 40 and 50 centimeters. This is conducive to the germination and growth of mugwort. Ensure that the ground is flat enough.

2. Fertilization

Before sowing mugwort, you can apply some base fertilizer to the soil, which can speed up the germination of mugwort. In addition to farmyard manure, you can also choose organic fertilizer. Note that the fertilizer needs to be fully mixed with the soil to avoid fertilizer damage.

3. Planting seeds

The planting of mugwort is relatively simple. Just sow the seeds directly into the soil. You can cover it with 0.5 cm of fine soil. Finally, pour some water to keep the soil slightly moist. However, one thing to note is that the sowing distance each time should be 40-50 cm.

Precautions for planting wormwood

During the growth period of mugwort, weeds should be removed in time to reduce nutrient consumption. Watering should be done frequently. Pay attention to watering when there is little precipitation. Fertilizer should be applied according to weather conditions. Non-fertilizer should be applied to promote seedling growth on rainy days, and thin liquid fertilizer should be applied on sunny days.
