Inserting it too deep makes it prone to rot; even if it roots, a long stretch of stem covered in fine roots will make transplanting difficult, and may even restrict your choice of pot size later on. Because if the long roots are not trimmed...

Detailed Explanation of the No-Till Intercropping Model for Shallow-Water Lotus Root
Traditional one-crop-per-year cultivation of shallow-water lotus root fields has limited the improvement of economic returns because of the low utilization rates of land, temperature and light resources. In recent years, Suining County, Hunan Province, has vigorously promoted no-till three-dimensional planting models for shallow-water lotus root; generally each technique can increase returns by 300 yuan per mu, and the highest can reach 1,600 yuan. The 6 three-dimensional planting models are introduced below. Shallow-water lotus root - pak choi: after the shallow-water lotus root field has been drained for 3-5 days, evenly broadcast 0.5-0.6 kg per mu of cabbage seeds such as Siyue Man and Zao Shu No. 5; at the 3-leaf stage of the pak choi

Shallow-water lotus root
1. Select superior seed lotus roots. For shallow-water lotus root, choose excellent varieties suitable for shallow-water cultivation as seed lotus roots, such as Hainan Zhou and Wulian No. 2. The seed lotus root should preferably be a whole lotus root with more than 3-4 nodes and with both daughter and grandchild lotus roots complete. The seed lotus root is required to be thick and strong, with vigorous buds, free of pests and diseases, and free of damage. 2. Select fertile clay loam fields. The product organ of the lotus root is formed in the underground soil; therefore, the lotus root field for planting shallow-water lotus root should be able to retain water, be rich in organic matter, and have a deep silt layer.

How should the water layer be regulated at different growth stages of shallow-water lotus root?
The suitable water level for shallow-water lotus root is 10-20 cm, and the maximum water depth it can tolerate is 50 cm. In cultivation, the water layer must be well regulated according to the different growth stages of shallow-water lotus root. The general principle of water layer management for shallow-water lotus root is shallow at the front, deep in the middle, and shallow at the back. After planting the lotus root, when the standing leaves appear, maintain a shallow water layer of 4-7 cm to increase soil temperature and promote sprouting. As the stems and leaves grow vigorously, gradually deepen the water layer to 12-15 cm. After the terminal leaves appear, the plant begins to form lotus root, and the water layer is gradually lowered to a depth of 4-7 cm to promote lotus root formation.
