How to plant white lotus

White lotus has a long history of planting and processing, and its quality is outstanding. It has the characteristics of white color, large particles, sweet taste, rich nutrition, high medicinal value, easy to rot in stew and tender soup. It is an excellent health food with the same origin of medicine and food. The following are the planting techniques of white lotus carefully arranged for you. Let's have a look.

Planting techniques of white lotus

(1) Choose suitable fields and rotate crops reasonably.

When planting lotus root fields, loam with deep soil layer and medium fertility should be selected, and fields with sufficient sunshine and good water source conditions should be selected. As far as possible, do not choose cold-soaked fields with cool mountains and high water and flood-prone floodplains. At the same time, reasonable rotation should be considered. Generally, the lotus field can be raised for one year, and it is best to plant it once every two or three years. Conditional farmers had better plant it once every three to five years to improve the soil structure.

(2) Select lotus seeds, transplant them in time, and plant them at a reasonable density.

The permeability of soil should be considered in the long-term accumulation of water in the whole growth period of white lotus, and it is generally better to master two plows and one rake in soil preparation. Before and after the vernal equinox, 50 kilograms of quicklime was applied to the fields with green manure, and ploughed and transplanted in Tomb-Sweeping Day.

The quality of lotus seeds is directly related to the emergence speed, growth and high yield of white lotus, so digging lotus seeds should first consider last year's varieties and the yield in the field, whether there are diseases or not. If the fields suffered from diseases last year, no matter how good the varieties were. The lotus roots should be dug the day before transplanting. If the area is too large, the methods of digging, disinfection and transplanting should be adopted to minimize the parking time of the lotus seeds and reduce the nutrient consumption of the lotus seeds. Seed lotus root should be a three-section lotus root whip with lotus root, and the one with sun lotus root is better. The number of buds of lotus root should be at least a female lotus root with one main bud and two lateral buds.

Reasonable close planting is mainly to make full use of soil fertility and light, coordinate the contradiction between group and individual development, and improve the yield per unit area. Lotus is planted too densely, and the lotus leaves overlap each other, resulting in shading in the field, poor ventilation and light transmission, small lotus, low seed setting rate and easy occurrence of pests and diseases. If it is too thin, the lotus root stem is not easy to irrigate the field, and at the same time it will cause weeds in the field, waste fertilizer and fail to achieve the goal of high yield. Only by adjusting measures to local conditions and determining the planting quantity according to soil fertility and fertilization level can we achieve the goal of increasing production. The planting density is generally per mu 100? 120 plant spacing 2.3? 2.6 meters, 3 per plant? Four buds. In fertile fields, there can be less plants 10 to 20 plants, and in low fertility fields, there can be less plants 10 plants per mu. 20 strains. The transplanting of lotus root is generally plum blossom-shaped, with the terminal buds around the field facing the middle of the field and buried in the mud for 6? 8 cm, the rear handle is tilted away from the water 10 cm, showing 40? Angle, after transplanting, fill in shallow water and cushion the gap.

(3) Fine management

The management of white lotus is first to do well in intertillage weeding and scientific irrigation. The field management of white lotus mainly focuses on the vigorous growth period, and strengthening the field management in this period is an important link to win the high yield of white lotus. When two or three leaves grow on the main stem of white lotus, weeding can be carried out. Drain water before ploughing and keep mud skin water. First, pull out the weeds around the lotus pile by hand and stuff them into the mud, and then plough in space, usually twice. Generally, ploughing should be completed within one month after transplanting, and then only manual weeding should be carried out without ploughing, so as to avoid diseases and insect pests caused by whipping after trauma. After each ploughing, shallow water should be restored. Oligocarpy means that the lotus leaves on the whip nodes have no buds after the lotus leaves appear. Too many fruits, shading in the field and poor air circulation affect the differentiation of lotus leaf buds and flower buds. Therefore, when the field is cultivated for the second time, some useless lotus leaves should be properly removed according to the seedling situation of the lotus field, and some lotus leaves that grow too vigorously should be properly removed during harvesting to reduce nutrient consumption.

The management of water slurry runs through the whole growth period of white lotus, and if it is left for farming, it will last until the next year, so scientific water management is also an important link for high yield of white lotus. Irrigation in lotus field should be controlled from shallow to deep, and lotus seeds should be watered in shallow water after picking them. The specific irrigation depth is: 3 before flowering? 6 cm is suitable, and the flourishing age should be deepened to 10? 12 cm, which can be deepened to more than 12 cm from the end of July. Under the premise of thickening and heightening the ridge, the field of fish farming in Liantian can be as deep as 25 cm. A thin layer of water should be left in the reserved field after the lotus seeds are harvested, which is conducive to cultivating strong lotus roots.

(4) white lotus formula fertilization

Lotus has a long growth period and consumes a lot of fertilizer in its life. At the current output level, pure nitrogen is 27 kg, phosphorus pentoxide 100 kg, potassium chloride 18 kg, and the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is about 3: 2: 2. In order to create high-yield fertility conditions, 2000 kilograms of manure should be applied per mu before soil preparation, and it is better to plant lotus flowers in fields with green manure. Before ploughing, 50 kilograms of quicklime should be applied per mu, which can not only accelerate the decomposition of organic matter, but also neutralize acidity. If there is lime nitrogen, it can be applied per mu 15. 20 kilograms. When two or three lotus leaves stand up, they can be combined with weeding and ploughing for the first time. Ammonium bicarbonate 10 kg plus calcium, magnesium and phosphorus or calcium superphosphate 35 kg plus sulfur powder 2 kg can be evenly applied around the lotus root pile, and then raked by hand to make the soil, fertilizer and water blend together, and rehydrated about 5 cm after fertilization to avoid burning lotus root seedlings with fertilizer. The second time is flower fertilizer. This fertilization is carried out at the beginning of flowering, about the end of May. Add 30 kg of 45% ternary compound fertilizer, urea 10 kg and borax 1 kg per mu, and then spread it evenly all over the field. Weeding in the field for the second time after application, and rehydrating immediately. 7 cm, the third fertilization was carried out at the beginning of lotus picking, and the time was about the end of June. 10 kg plus potassium chloride 7? 8 kg spread all over the field. In the future, urea and a small amount of multi-element compound fertilizer can be supplemented as appropriate according to the seedling situation. Generally speaking, the fertilization principle of white lotus is: apply more organic fertilizer, less chemical fertilizer, moderate alkali fertilizer, less acid fertilizer, not excessive fertilization, and pay attention to the mixed application of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, boron and other trace elements.

The Cultural Significance of Bai Lianhua

China has loved lotus since ancient times. As a local religion in China, Lotus is naturally one of the symbols of Taoism.
