How to plant Oxalis seeds

one. Seedbed preparation

Because this plant likes sandy soil with good drainage, clay will be detrimental to its growth, so the cultivation soil for sowing should be sandy soil. When preparing the seedbed, you can apply organic fertilizer and compound fertilizer on the prepared sandy soil, and then use a rake to rake the soil and fertilizer evenly, and then tamp it. It is best to ensure a 5-degree slope to facilitate soil drainage. Because this plant does not like stagnant water, you must take drainage measures to avoid rainwater accumulation when it rains.

two. step

1 Because the seeds are relatively small, you can wet one end of a toothpick and then stick the seeds on the soil. There must be enough distance between the seeds. If you do not plan to transplant the seedlings in a short time, the distance between the seeds must be more than 15x15 cm. If you plan to transplant them after the sprouts grow, you don't need to pay too much attention to the spacing issue.

2 After sowing the seeds, cover them with a relatively thin layer of sandy soil. In order to keep warm and allow the seeds to germinate quickly at a suitable temperature, you can cover them with a piece of plastic film after covering the soil layer. This can also achieve the effect of ensuring humidity. You can add moisture to it before that.

3 It is worth noting that before covering the plastic film, the soil layer should be watered. The amount of water does not need to be too much. It is best to use sprinkler irrigation or drip irrigation, and do not flood irrigation. The soil layer only needs to be kept moist but not wet. This is most conducive to seed germination.

Three: Note

1 This plant is generally chosen to be sown in spring because the most suitable temperature for its germination is 15 to 25 degrees, and the warm climate in spring is very suitable.

2 After about two weeks, it will sprout.
