3. How do you raise Angelica sinensis seedlings?
1. Land selection and land preparation: What kind of land is suitable for planting?
Angelica sinensis is suitable for growing in an environment with deep soil, loose and fertile soil, good drainage and rich humus, so when selecting land, try to choose sandy loam rich in humus for planting. For example, a shady and moist mid-slope hillside is a good place. After selecting the land, plow the soil about 25cm deep, and apply about 3000 kg of farmyard manure and about 35 kg of ammonium fertilizer per mu, and finally level it for sowing.
2. Seed selection and seed treatment: What kind of seeds are good to choose?
(1) Seed selection: Just select some seeds with a glossy and plump appearance, no mildew, no damage, and normal maturity from three-year-old plants.
(2) Seed treatment: Put the selected seeds into carbendazim or root rot powder mixed with water for seed dressing, then soak for about 24 hours, and finally remove them and drain off the water.
3. Sowing: How do you sow?
(1) Sowing time: Early May to early June.
(2) Sowing method: Angelica sinensis can be sown in drills or broadcast. The most commonly used method is broadcast sowing, which is to evenly scatter the seeds on the soil, then cover with a thin layer of soil and a layer of rice straw.
(3) Sowing density: Generally, sowing about 5 to 6 kg per mu is sufficient.
4. Post-sowing management techniques: How do you manage them?
(1) Temperature requirements: After the seeds are sown, it is best to control the temperature at about 10 to 20 degrees. Generally, when the soil temperature reaches 20 degrees, they will germinate quickly, and seedlings will emerge after 7 to 10 days.
(2) Cultivation and weeding: When the seedlings grow to about 3cm (when 3 true leaves have grown), the first loosening of the soil and weeding can be carried out. When about 5 seedlings have emerged, remove the rice straw and carry out the second loosening of the soil and weeding.
(3) Pest and disease control: During the seedling stage of Angelica sinensis, various small insects, root rot and other pests and diseases will appear, so nitrogen fertilizer should be applied in a timely manner to reduce pests and diseases.
(4) Lifting seedlings: When the seedlings grow to September to October, they can be dug out with soil and roots, then weak seedlings and diseased seedlings are removed, tied up with rope and placed in the field for transplanting. When lifting seedlings, do not be too rough, so as not to damage the root system and reduce the survival rate.
