What fertilizer is good for konjac topdressing?

Konjac topdressing time

The demand for fertilizer of konjac is relatively small in the early stage of growth. It is not until the bulb growth period, which is around August, that the demand for fertilizer reaches its peak. At this time, topdressing is required in time to meet the growth needs.

What fertilizer should be used for konjac topdressing

Konjac grows fast and has a great demand for fertilizer. Generally, it is fertilized twice. The seedling-promoting fertilizer is applied in the seedling stage combined with the first inter-tillage topdressing. Generally, organic fertilizer and compound fertilizer are applied to promote the growth of seedlings. Be careful not to drip fertilizer on the branches and leaves of konjac during topdressing to prevent fertilizer damage.

During the period of konjac's head replacement, underground tubers will soon be formed. The second topdressing can be done during the intertillage. Apply organic fertilizer and compound fertilizer. Be sure to dilute them with water and apply them. Around early August, you can apply 1 to 2 quick-acting fertilizers. You can also spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves.

Is urea or compound fertilizer used for topdressing konjac?

When applying top dressing to konjac, it is best to choose compound fertilizer or urea, mix and dilute them with water, and then add them to the soil like watering. You can also add 1-2 quick-acting fertilizers or foliar fertilizers around August.

Konjac topdressing method

Before sowing konjac, you can apply decomposed farmyard manure, ordinary superphosphate, and potassium sulfate type compound fertilizer at one time. Topdressing can be done according to soil fertility and combined with tillage and soil cultivation. Urea and compound fertilizer can be used. Topdressing should be done in good weather after the dew has dried, and soil should be cultivated immediately after topdressing.

Precautions for konjac topdressing

1. When applying organic fertilizer to konjac, it must be fully fermented. Chicken manure contains a lot of bacteria, so it should not be used when planting konjac. If there are pests in the farm manure, it must be treated with insecticide. You can use "dichlorvos" or "Di Cong Guan Yi Nian" for insecticide. You don't need to use too much to effectively kill pests.

2. Choose a chlorine-free high-potassium compound fertilizer. Potassium sulfate and potassium nitrate can both be used. However, when choosing fertilizers, you should choose fertilizers produced by regular large manufacturers. Also, the high-potassium compound fertilizer used as base fertilizer should be a nutritionally balanced compound fertilizer. For topdressing, be sure to choose a compound fertilizer with a high potassium content.

3. When choosing yield-increasing fertilizers and foliar fertilizers, you should also choose those produced by regular large manufacturers. For yield-increasing fertilizers, you can use the konjac-specific yield-increasing fertilizer "Mokui", and for foliar fertilizers, you can choose "Konjac Ling".
