Characteristics of 1-year-old Taxus wallichiana var. mairei (southern Chinese yew) seedlings and key points of seedling-stage management
For container seedling raising of Taxus wallichiana var. mairei (southern Chinese yew), a container size of 8cm×12cm is appropriate. After sowing, the soil temperature should be in the range of 18-25°C; after about 25d the seeds can break through the soil and germinate, with uniform germination and a high germination rate. If the temperature is below the lower limit, the seeds are difficult to germinate, and the germination rate is low and uneven. After the seeds germinate, from early June to early October, shading with a shade net of about 50% light transmittance is required. The seedlings have strict requirements for water and fertilizer; in the middle and late growth stages, more phosphorus fertilizer should be applied to promote the increase of ground diameter, root system and biomass.

A Bold Exploration of a New Technique for Transplanting Bare-Root Cotton Seedlings
Xinchang Town in Shishou City is located on the north bank of the Yangtze River, bordering Jiangling County. It is the largest town for early melons in Hubei Province and the birthplace of early chili pepper seedling cultivation in Hunan and Hubei. It was once the township in Hubei Province with the largest area, the highest benefits, and the best influence for intercropping cotton with melons and peppers. On this land where melons delight guests and peppers reflect the colors of spring, the year-round cotton planting area is about 24,000 mu. In recent years, under the promotion and guidance of agricultural technical service departments, some cotton farmers have been willing to accept new technologies and have actively and boldly explored new methods of cotton seedling cultivation. On the basis of substrate seedling cultivation and water-floating seedling cultivation in the previous two years, this year they

What are the common pests of golden privet (Ligustrum vicaryi)? A detailed guide to control methods
Golden privet (Ligustrum vicaryi) is a semi-evergreen small shrub of the genus Ligustrum in the family Oleaceae. Because its young shoots are golden yellow and it tolerates pruning and drought, it is often combined with red-flowered Loropetalum (Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum), azaleas (Rhododendron) and Chinese juniper (Juniperus chinensis) to decorate flower beds and green belts. High-density planting often makes pest problems more severe, causing new shoots to grow slowly or not sprout at all, weakening the plants and even killing them. The common and most damaging pests of golden privet are: the citrus mealybug (Planococcus citri), the privet leaf-mining flea beetle, and the yellow-ringed silk-fringed pyralid moth. 1 Citrus mealybug adults and nymphs rest on the branches and leaves of golden privet and suck plant sap with their piercing-sucking mouthparts,

Detailed Explanation of the Key Techniques for Propagating Golden Privet (Ligustrum vicaryi) from Cuttings
I. Preparation of the cutting bed. First dig the cutting bed and firm the surrounding edges. Fill the bed with substrate in layers: spread 10 cm of cinder at the bottom layer to aid drainage, spread 10 cm of humus soil in the middle layer, and spread 5 cm of coarse sand on the top layer, then level the bed soil and set it aside. Finally, build an arched shed with bamboo strips and plastic. II. Cutting treatment. Select one-year-old branches cut from greening plots and roadside green belts, cut them into cuttings about 15 cm long, and keep 1-2 leaves at the top of each cutting. Because privet has dense axillary buds and a relatively high survival rate, no chemical solution treatment is needed before insertion. III. Inserting the cuttings.

How to prevent and control brown spot and defoliation disease in golden privet (Ligustrum × vicaryi)
Some years ago, because golden privet (Ligustrum × vicaryi) has advantages such as easy propagation, drought resistance, few pests and diseases, tolerance to pruning, a long golden-leaf period, and good effects in large color-block landscape grouping, it was widely planted, especially for patterned flower-bed shapes and large color blocks, where the landscape effect was particularly good. However, due to excessively high planting density and inadequate maintenance and management, brown spot and defoliation disease occurred every year during the rainy season (August to September in the Luoyang area), causing leaves to fall one after another, new leaves and tender buds to fail to emerge in time, and even entire plants to die in patches, severely damaging the landscape effect. In response to this situation, in 2003 we studied golden
