1. Spring planting

Spring is the main sowing time for Chinese toon, usually from March to April. At this time, the temperature gradually warms up and the soil temperature reaches above 5°C, which is conducive to seed germination and seedling growth.

2. Autumn planting

Autumn is also a suitable time to plant toon, generally from September to October. At this time, the temperature is moderate, the soil remains warm, and the moisture is relatively stable, which is conducive to the germination of toon seeds and the growth of roots.

1. Site selection and land preparation

Choose a location with fertile, well-drained soil for your nursery, and make sure there aren't many underground pests. Although Chinese toon is not very demanding on soil, it grows better in fertile, well-drained soil. After deep plowing and land preparation, apply base fertilizer to provide sufficient nutrients for the growth of Chinese toon.

2. Choose a seed

Choose seeds that are plump in appearance and reddish-yellow in color, as they have a higher germination rate. Soak the seeds in warm water for 2-3 hours before sowing and stir well to promote germination.

3. Planting seeds

Clear the field of weeds and residues before sowing. After sowing, keep the soil moist to facilitate germination and growth. You can choose row sowing, dig furrows with a row spacing of 15-20 cm, cover with 1-2 cm of soil after sowing, and water thoroughly after compacting. You can also choose to sow, spread the seeds evenly on the soil surface, cover with a thin layer of soil, compact it and then water it thoroughly.

4. Seedling management

When the seedlings grow to 5 leaves, thin them out and keep the plant spacing at 10-15 cm. Keep the soil moist and avoid waterlogging or drought. Apply compound fertilizer once a month during the vigorous growth period.

5. Pruning and shaping

When the seedlings grow to 1 meter high, remove the terminal buds to promote the growth of side branches. The height of the Chinese toon tree can be controlled by topping and core removal to promote the development of side branches.

6. Pest and disease control

Common diseases and pests of Chinese toon include anthracnose, scale damage and whiteflies. Check the plants regularly and take timely measures if pests and diseases are found, such as spraying pesticides or using biological control.

The above is an introduction to the time and method of planting toon. When planting toon in spring and autumn, pay attention to temperature changes to avoid damage to seedlings caused by extreme weather. Generally, the young shoots are harvested 50-60 days after sowing. Water them in time after harvesting to promote the growth of new shoots.
