Does cowpea prefer shade or sun?Cowpea is a sun-loving plant and is very easy to grow. Many families still grow it. Although it is a short-day plant, many varieties are medium-light-loving, so the requirements for light are not strict. At this time, breeders can spend more energy on other breeding conditions. Does cowpea like the sun?Cowpea is a semi-sun-loving plant and needs to receive no less than 5-6 hours of light per day. It can receive direct sunlight all day in spring and autumn without affecting its growth. Cowpea can be exposed to the sun in the summer, but it cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to the sun will sunburn its leaves and cause yellow leaves to appear on the plant. At this time, shade measures should be taken in time. Is cowpea shade tolerant?Cowpea is shade-tolerant, but it is best not to plant it in a shady place. First, it is not conducive to the synthesis of its nutrients. Second, it will cause poor development and its own value will be greatly reduced. Cowpea growing environmentCowpea is not very demanding on the soil; it prefers neutral, breathable soil. Cowpea is sensitive to low temperatures; its growth is inhibited below 10°C, the plant is damaged below 5°C, and it dies at 0°C. Cowpea does not like water, it likes dryness. It needs to be watered sufficiently once during the growing period, and the next watering will be after flowering. If the flowers are too dry during the growing period, they need to be watered manually once a week. When watering, you must adhere to the principle of "watering the pods but not the flowers", because its flowers will fall off when they come into contact with water, which is not conducive to the growth of the plant. |
