How to grow Patrinia

Breeding methods

Soil selection

Patrinia salsa generally requires relatively loose, organic soil. If it is sandy soil, its growth rate is very rapid. Since this plant is similar to the green vegetables we often eat, it has poor soil-breaking ability, so the soil must be loose. The seeds need to be buried about 20 cm from the ground.

Fertilization

In order to ensure the quality of Patrinia salsa, do not apply pesticides during the planting process, it is best to apply organic fertilizer. It is not necessary to apply fertilizer only once. If you want it to grow well, it is recommended that you apply fertilizer before and after watering. It is best to apply fertilizer before watering to facilitate absorption and growth. Since Patrinia salsa can be harvested many times after planting once, just like cutting leeks, you should not cut even the roots of the leeks. Therefore, it is best to fertilize it after harvesting once to allow it to grow vigorously.

Watering

Although Patrinia salsa is relatively drought-resistant, watering is crucial if you want it to have large and thick branches and leaves. When exactly should I water? Deep watering is needed after the first sowing to ensure rapid germination. After the seedlings are planted, they need to be watered, but not too much.

If it is during the rainy season, the roots may rot, and drainage measures need to be taken around them. It is also necessary to clean up the weeds around it in time to prevent the grass from absorbing the organic fertilizer and moisture of the Patrinia salsa. Irrigation is required during the high temperatures in summer to prevent drought and yellowing. After harvesting, watering is required to allow new seedlings to sprout.

Reproduction

Patrinia salsa reproduces by seeds and rhizomes similar to strawberries, and can grow horizontally on its own. So when planting, there needs to be some distance between each tree because they will grow some on their own. The spacing between each tree is 25-30 cm.

Tips

You may have tasted delicacies from mountains and seas, but you may not have tasted this kind of game, so I will also talk about the edibility of this grass. It is best to blanch it slightly in a pot with boiling water, then squeeze out the moisture on the surface and then you can serve it cold. Speaking of this, the editor is drooling. It can also be stir-fried, similar to the method of garlic and chrysanthemum. Don’t worry, let me tell you how to plant it now!
