Cultivation methods and precautions of goat milk flower

1. Soil

It is best to choose sandy loam for the nursery site, which should have a slight slope to facilitate drainage. It should be plowed about 33 cm deep and fully decomposed high-quality farmyard manure should be applied, about 5,000 kg/667 m2. The height of the bed is determined by the terrain and the groundwater level. The width of the bed is 1.2m and the length is determined by the user.

2. Water

Keep the bed moist and water the seedlings in time after they emerge from the soil. After the seedlings grow to 15 cm, no more watering is needed. Pay attention to drainage during the rainy season and set up a trellis when the plant grows to 30cm.

3. Fertilization

When the seedlings are 3-7cm tall, apply diluted manure water once, with a dosage of about 1200kg per 667m2. In summer, apply manure water again, with a dosage of 1500-2000kg per 667m2. No more manure fertilizer will be applied after the ridges are closed.

4. Lighting

When the seedlings are 5 cm tall, a sunshade should be built, with the bed surface being able to let light pass through. The best material for shading is black pine branches. When the seedlings are 10 cm tall, the sunshade should be gradually removed.
