Where is Schisandra suitable for planting?

Schisandra chinensis planting area

Schisandra chinensis generally grows on hillsides or on both sides of mountain roads. It looks like an ordinary weed. It is grown in most parts of my country, and is most widely grown in the northeast.

Schisandra is suitable for planting in the north. For example, the soil in the Northeast region is fertile and the temperature is balanced and relatively cool during the growing period, which is very suitable for its growth. It is also widely distributed in the south, but the overall planting effect and output quality of Schisandra in the south are not as good as those in the north. The cultivation effect is better in places with neither too much nor too little precipitation. Schisandra in Qinghe Forest District of Heilongjiang Province in my country is more famous.

Schisandra chinensis planting conditions

Schisandra is suitable for planting in places with average rain and heat conditions. Usually, areas that produce high-quality Schisandra do not have high temperatures and high rainfall. Generally, the annual average temperature is around ten degrees, which is very good. Schisandra grows better in locations with good light conditions. It is a light-loving plant that can grow under long-term light.

Key points of planting and management of Schisandra chinensis

1. Water content:

Schisandra chinensis does not have high requirements for water. Just water it before the soil becomes dry. However, it is important not to water it too much, causing the soil to become too moist and waterlogged.

2. Soil:

Schisandra is best planted in a cool and dry environment. When preparing the soil, you can choose sandy soil with slag and peat soil. This can keep the root environment dry and have good air permeability.

3. Lighting:

Schisandra chinensis still needs a lot of light to grow. It will grow particularly densely in places with good light for a long time. When choosing a site for planting in a mountainous area, try to choose the sunny side of the mountain.
