When is the best season to plant yam?

1. What season to plant?

1. Open-air: Yams are planted in spring. my country has a vast area and different climatic conditions in different regions, so the planting time also varies. If it is normally planted in North China, which has a temperate climate, it enters spring around February, so it is just right for planting during this time. If you are in the Northeast, because the climate is slow to spring and the surface temperature has not reached the requirements for planting, you can choose to plant in April.

2. Greenhouse: For greenhouses, the temperature is not so restricted. As long as the surface temperature can reach around 9-10 degrees Celsius, planting can be carried out, and it can be chosen around New Year's Day.

2. Planting Method

1. Choose the right seedlings: You can use yam seedlings for planting. It is best to ensure that the whole plant is not damaged, and it must be plump and healthy. Broken stem nodes are also acceptable.

2. Processing: After selecting, place it in the sun to dry first. This can kill bacteria and increase the chance of survival. Broken stem nodes can be smeared with wood ash to prevent the juice from seeping down and also to act as a disinfectant.

3. Planting: Plant the processed stem nodes into the soil and take good care of them.
