Master the correct method when earthing up ginger to avoid damaging the roots
Ginger needs to be earthed up several times during its growth period. It is understood that the mechanical earthing-up machine used locally in Anqiu causes more serious root damage to ginger than manual earthing up, because the furrow bottom formed by the earthing-up machine is about 20 cm wide and the ridge height is 40 cm, while manual earthing up with a hoe leaves a furrow bottom of about 10 cm and a ridge height of around 35 cm. "When the earthing-up method cannot be changed, excessive root damage can be avoided by adjusting the growth direction of the underground ginger tubers, that is, when sowing the seed ginger, deliberately place the seed ginger perpendicular to the planting row, so that the daughter ginger and granddaughter ginger are also perpendicular to the planting row. By the time of earthing up, the entire ginger tuber is then perpendicular to the planting row, while the fleshy roots, lateral roots and fibrous roots caused by earthing up extend along the direction of the planting row, so they will not be damaged too much during earthing up. If the underground seed ginger is sown parallel to the planting row, too many roots will be damaged during earthing up." said Liu Shinian of Qianyulin, Linghe Town, Anqiu City.
