How to grow chestnut bean trees

1. Breeding environment

1. Potting soil: It is best to use loose, well-drained sandy soil for growing chestnut trees. Soil that is too sticky will affect its growth.

2. Watering: Wait until the surface of the soil in the pot becomes dry before watering. You can also spray water on the leaves frequently to increase the humidity. Generally, water once a day in summer and once every 3-5 days in winter. There should be no water accumulation in the soil in the pot.

3. Light: The chestnut bean tree prefers a semi-shaded growing environment and cannot receive light for a long time, especially strong light in summer. Shading measures should be taken in time to allow it to receive diffuse light every day. It can receive light all day in winter.

4. Fertilization: Do not fertilize it with too high a concentration. Generally, fertilize it once a month. In addition, you can add adequate fully decomposed organic fertilizer when changing the soil.

2. Breeding Methods

Seed propagation: Soak in warm water for 24 hours before sowing, then treat with low temperature, germinate in mid-February, and you can sow in March-April. When the seedlings grow to 1 meter, dig them up and plant them in trenches.

3. Common pests and diseases

Common diseases and pests of chestnut trees include witches' broom, caterpillar moth, scale insects, etc. They must be prevented and controlled in a timely manner, and ventilation should be strengthened, and appropriate fertilizers should be applied to improve disease resistance. In serious cases, pesticides should be sprayed.
