After winter cultivation, water bamboo (Zizania latifolia) has excellent quality and high yield
Water bamboo is a warmth-loving plant that reproduces asexually through tillering and division. Its optimum growth temperature is 10-25°C. It is not tolerant of cold, nor of high temperatures and drought. The frost-free period in cultivation areas must be more than 150 days. After frost, the water bamboo leaves wither and die, and during dormancy it can withstand low temperatures of -10°C. In northern China, where the frost-free period is short, single-crop water bamboo is mainly planted. Single-crop water bamboo is suitable...

What to do when rice has difficulty heading? Spraying gibberellin can alleviate it
When rice has difficulty heading, or shows the "neck-enclosed" phenomenon, the grains enclosed in the leaf sheath cannot emerge in time for pollination and fertilization, and generally become empty or blighted grains, greatly affecting yield. There are many causes of this phenomenon: in some cases the variety itself is more prone to the neck-enclosed phenomenon, and it becomes more severe under adverse environmental conditions; in others...

Sweet potato fertilization has its subtleties: keep these four points in mind
1. Harvest at the right time and avoid mechanical damage. Summer sweet potatoes should be fully harvested around Frost's Descent, and autumn sweet potatoes before the Start of Winter. Choose a sunny day for harvesting, and when digging the tubers, minimize or avoid causing wounds. 2. Select healthy tubers carefully to ensure safe storage in the cellar. Before the sweet potatoes go into the cellar, select them carefully, discard diseased, damaged and rotten tubers, let the moisture dry off, then store...

Potato watering has its own rules
During the growth of potatoes, which stage should be watered less, which stage should be watered more, and which stage should not be watered at all are matters of great particularity. This issue is discussed below. Potatoes are generally not watered from the time the seedlings push through the soil until flowering, and are subjected to moisture stress to promote root development; only in cases of extreme drought should a small amount of water be given. Cultivation experts, in loam soil with good water retention...

Autumn eggplant cultivation has its secrets, and these practical tips must be mastered
The main varieties selected are Nilo, Brinjal, Langgao, and others; they are indeterminate growth type, early maturing, with long fruit, purplish-black color, green stem, green calyx, spineless, and smooth and glossy texture. Single fruit weighs 300-400 grams, with good taste. For seedling raising, soak the seeds to promote germination; before sowing, sun the seeds for 1-2 days, soak them in warm water at 50-55°C for 10-15 minutes, and when the warm water cools to...

Garlic scape harvesting has its tricks: learn the correct harvesting method
1. Garlic scapes must be harvested at the right time. Harvesting too early results in low scape yield because the scape has not fully emerged, and after harvesting an extra segment of "surplus scape" will still push out. Harvesting too late not only affects the fresh, tender quality of the scapes because they have become "over-mature," but also, since after the scapes are harvested the leaves are already nearing senescence and supply less energy to the underground garlic bulbs, it reduces bulb yield. The most suitable harvesting time is: when the scape has emerged and the "scape tip" has curved nearly one full circle. 2. Harvesting garlic scapes leaves a "wound" on the whole garlic plant. If harvesting under strong sunlight on a clear day

Drying Chaotian chili peppers has its own rules; master the key points to dry them well
Chaotian chili peppers are grown on a fairly large area in our province. Throughout the entire production process, field management cannot be neglected, and likewise, scientific drying is a very important step. Right now, Chaotian chili peppers are about to be harvested. Below is a brief introduction to drying methods for the reference of chili growers. Timely harvesting: the fruits can be harvested once they have all turned deep red. In North China, harvesting is generally done from Cold Dew to Frost's Descent. If grown in small arched sheds or with plastic film mulching, harvesting can be done somewhat earlier; if planted later, the harvest period can be slightly postponed, but harvesting must be completed before Frost's Descent arrives
