Cultivation methods and precautions of Chinese potherb mustard

1. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: Loose, fertile soil with good drainage is more suitable for the growth of Chinese mustard. Sandy loam can be used.

2. Water: Adequate water is essential during its vigorous growth period. The amount of watering is generally based on the standard of watering thoroughly without water accumulation. If the Chinese mustard greens do not absorb enough water, the fiber material will increase and the quality will be reduced.

3. Nutrients: Before planting Chinese mustard, the soil should be tilled and then exposed to the sun for sterilization. Then use chicken, duck, pig manure and human feces as base fertilizer and spread it evenly on the soil. This will allow the plants to fully absorb nutrients after planting.

4. Light: It likes to grow in a cooler environment with cool weather and sufficient sunshine, which is more conducive to the formation of flower buds, and can also promote the growth rate and avoid high temperatures and direct sunlight.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pruning: During the growth period, the outermost stems and leaves of the roots often wilt and rot. They should be pulled out and pruned appropriately to prevent the rotten stems and leaves from infecting the growth of other normal stems and leaves. The soil should also be loosened and weeds removed appropriately.

2. Reproduction: The general method of reproduction is direct seeding on flat beds. First, fertilize and till the soil, then sow the seeds, and sprinkle water to keep the soil moist. Seedlings will grow in about half a month.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Yellow-striped flea beetle larvae: Yellow-striped flea beetle larvae are very harmful to the roots of Chinese mustard. If not killed in time, it will seriously affect its growth. You can choose to use diluted chlorpyrifos to spray and kill it.

2. Clubroot: This is a fungal disease, which can be effectively prevented and controlled by reasonable sterilization and drug prevention. When clubroot occurs, it is very effective to use prepared lime water for watering.

IV. Other issues

1. How to survive the winter: Chinese mustard is a plant that can resist low temperatures. Even when the temperature is low or it snows in winter, it will not be frostbitten or frozen to death. However, when the snow is relatively thick, it should be cleared away appropriately.
