If you want chives to grow well and have high yields, besides good seeds, planting techniques are also particularly important, so the planting methods for chive seeds are compiled below:

1. The chive planting area should be chosen in a place far from main roads, with no pollution, flat terrain, fertile and loose soil, and good drainage and irrigation conditions; before sowing, the plot should be deeply plowed, raked level, disinfected and fertilized.

2. Chive seeds used for sowing should be soaked and pre-germinated, and successfully germinated seeds should be sown at the appropriate time; generally in the Huang-Huai River basin spring sowing of chives is from early to mid-April, in southern regions the sowing time is from December to February of the following year, and in the north it is from May to June.

3. Sowing adopts the drill method; after the chives emerge evenly, determine the watering interval according to soil moisture, generally watering once every 7-10 days, and watering can be combined with fertilization; during the growth period of chives, pay attention to draining water in summer and watering during autumn droughts.

4. Chives can generally be cultivated and weeded more than 4 times, or pesticide can be sprayed for ground weeding; after the chives mature, harvest about once every month, and each harvest should keep the cutting opening consistent.

5. The main pests and diseases of chives are chive maggots and gray mold; it is best to carry out prevention in advance, and agricultural control, physical control or chemical control are all acceptable, but note that pesticide application should be stopped one week before harvest.
