Harvesting, Processing Methods and Medicinal Effects of Polygonatum
Harvesting and processing: Polygonatum grown from transplanted rhizomes is harvested after 1 to 2 years, while plants grown from seed are harvested after 3 to 4 years. In late autumn or early spring, dig out the rhizomes, wash off the soil, remove the fibrous roots and diseased scars, steam for 10 to 20 minutes (until thoroughly steamed), take them out and dry them in the sun, kneading them while drying; after 7 to 10 days of sun-drying they will be dry. Medicinal effects: Polygonatum is sweet in flavor and neutral in nature. It enters the spleen, lung and kidney meridians. It has the effects of tonifying the spleen and moistening the lungs, nourishing yin and promoting fluid production, tonifying the middle and replenishing qi, and strengthening the tendons and bones.

Effective weed control methods in Schisandra chinensis fields
1. The results of a survey of weed species in Schisandra chinensis fields showed that the weeds causing more serious damage in Schisandra chinensis fields include barnyardgrass, crabgrass, amaranth, lamb's quarters, field horsetail, green foxtail, and shortawn foxtail, among which crabgrass, Asiatic dayflower, and lamb's quarters are especially serious. 2. Conventional weed control in Schisandra chinensis orchards Conventional weed control in Schisandra chinensis orchards can be carried out together with intertillage of the orchard, 4 to 5 times per year, with a cultivation depth of about 10 cm, so that the soil is loose and has good aeration, and it also plays a role in drought resistance and water conservation. Weeding is an important means of avoiding nutrient loss and ensuring the plants have enough nutrition to grow healthily.

What effect does high summer temperature have on Gastrodia elata?
In low-altitude hilly areas, under high temperatures of 32-34°C, lasting 10 days (240 hours) has little effect on Gastrodia elata and can still produce arrow tubers, while when the high temperature lasts 15 days (360 hours), the yield of Gastrodia elata will be affected. Therefore, the baseline of Gastrodia elata's tolerance to high temperature is relatively high. Summering of Gastrodia elata is not only related to the value of the absolute high temperature, but depends even more on the duration of the high temperature. Because under outdoor natural conditions there are monthly temperature differences and daily differences from day-night changes, and in addition artificial cultivation adopts shading and other regulating measures

Sexual propagation proves effective for gastrodia cultivation
Gastrodia is a flagship product among the traditional Chinese medicinal herbs of our province. As the quality of gastrodia cultivation degrades year by year and diseases become severe, gastrodia yields are low and returns are poor. How to solve this problem? Experts at the Fengcheng City Yulong Sexual Seed Propagation Demonstration Service Base have found a way: with the method of sexual propagation of gastrodia, not only do yields increase by 2-3 times compared with asexually propagated gastrodia, but the disease resistance of gastrodia is also greatly enhanced. What is sexual propagation of gastrodia? According to Mo Bingyao, an expert at the Fengcheng City Yulong Sexual Seed Propagation Demonstration Service Base, gastrodia cultivation in our province basically all uses

How to effectively prevent and control contaminating fungi in Gastrodia elata cultivation
1. When cultivating fungal wood, carefully inspect the fungal branches and fungal logs. Contaminating fungi prefer saprophytic life, so fresh wood that is not decayed and free of mold should be selected for cultivating fungal logs, and the cultivation time should be shortened as much as possible. If contaminating fungi are found on the fungal logs, scrape them off if the infection is light and sun-dry for 1-2 days; discard them if the infection is severe. 2. Inspect the Gastrodia elata seeds used. If mold infection is found, scrape it off and sun-dry if the infection is light, or disinfect the affected area locally with 75% alcohol, carbendazim, etc. before use. Any Gastrodia elata seeds that are bruised or rotten must be discarded. 3. The filling material must be packed firmly, and never leave

Getting the five key steps right in Gastrodia elata cultivation can effectively increase yield
To achieve stable and high yields of Gastrodia elata, the first thing is to get the five pre-planting steps right: First, choose the site. Gastrodia elata cultivation can be adapted to local conditions, whether indoors, in air-raid shelters, semi-basements, or chicken coops. Because Gastrodia elata likes dark, damp, and cool environments, choose places with good ventilation and shade as much as possible, with semi-basements and outdoor trenches giving the best results. You can lay a layer of bricks before use, or increase the thickness of the bottom sand layer to enhance its water permeability. Second, if the indoor floor is concrete, use high-quality Armillaria mellea fungal material (spawn). Armillaria mellea fungal material

What effect does low winter temperature have on Gastrodia elata
The tubers of Gastrodia elata are buried underground and overwinter in a dormant state; the stable low temperature they can tolerate is 0-5°C. However, if winter temperatures fluctuate frequently, with large swings in temperature difference, sudden warmth followed by sudden cold, Gastrodia elata is prone to cold damage. Therefore, special attention should be paid to cold protection and heat preservation for overwintering Gastrodia elata, especially for box-cultivated Gastrodia elata, which should be covered even more carefully to preserve warmth and prevent cold damage. But Gastrodia elata has a certain low-temperature cycle and requires an appropriate stable low temperature in winter, otherwise its sprouting will be adversely affected.
