How to plant yam straight and how to plant yam to make it grow big

1. How to grow straight

Yams generally grow upright. If they do not grow upright, it means that there are some hard stones and gravel in the soil that block their growth. Therefore, before planting, be sure to turn the soil over thoroughly and remove the larger and harder stones to avoid affecting its development. Loose and fertile soil is more conducive to the growth of plants and also helps their breathing.

2. How to grow big

1. Control light: The growth of many plants depends on sufficient light. For yam, it is necessary to provide light, but the light time cannot be too long. Long light hours are conducive to the growth of branches and leaves, but are not conducive to the development of roots and stems. Generally, strong light exposure is required, but the time should not be too long. This can accelerate the accumulation of nutrients and improve its quality.

2. Appropriate fertilization: If you want yam to grow well, you must provide a lot of nutrients, so you must apply fertilizer well. Fertilization is mainly based on base fertilizer, generally organic fertilizer or decomposed farm manure is used, which can provide nutrients continuously. During the growing season, appropriate topdressing is needed. Nitrogen fertilizer is mainly used in the early stage to promote the development of branches and leaves, and then compound fertilizer should be applied to allow the roots and stems to grow.

3. Build a trellis to guide the vines: Yam is a vine plant. If it is not managed properly, it is easy for the vines to block each other's growth, resulting in poor ventilation and lighting for the leaves, affecting its development. Usually a support is set up on it so that the vines can grow along the support, which can ensure good air circulation and better sunlight exposure. The height of the bracket is 1.8-2.4 meters, and the minimum shall not be less than 1.6 meters.
