How to plant spring vegetables? Master these three planting key points

As temperatures rise in spring, it is a good season for planting vegetables. Most vegetables marketed in summer are sown and raised as seedlings at this time. As the saying goes, having seedlings gives you half a harvest, and strong seedlings give you half more - this shows the importance of cultivating strong seedlings in vegetable planting. Below, follow the editor to take a look at the three key points of spring vegetable planting.

1. Sprouting seeds with warm water

Although spring temperatures are gradually rising, the climate is still changeable, and there is relatively more low-temperature weather. Seeds need warmth to sprout, and low temperatures may delay sprouting or, in severe cases, cause the seeds to rot. Therefore, in order for vegetable seeds to sprout smoothly and to shorten the sprouting time as much as possible, they should be soaked in warm water for 4-5 hours before sowing. Different seeds can each use a separate container to avoid confusion. The amount of seeds soaked depends on the size of the container; it should not be too much or too little. For seeds that take a relatively long time to sprout, they can also be promptly treated for sprouting after soaking.

2. Reasonable protection

Before protecting the seeds, they can be dressed with new high-fat film. This not only keeps them warm and moist, effectively increasing the seed germination rate and making the seedlings grow strong, but also repels underground pests and isolates viral infection. When sowing, pay attention to spacing, determined according to the type of vegetable. For example, sprout vegetables can be sown somewhat densely, while root and stem vegetables need to be sown more sparsely. For summer sowing, it is best to choose morning or evening, avoiding the high-temperature period. After sowing, spread a layer of 1-2 cm of fine soil, then water appropriately to promote early emergence of the seeds.

3. Fertilizer and water management

Reasonable watering and fertilizing can prevent excessive drought during vegetable growth, which would otherwise affect the crop's morning growth. Timely application of vegetable stem-strengthening agent and new high-fat film can make vegetable seedlings grow luxuriantly, with thick stems and fleshy leaves, high yield and good quality, and a longer fresh-keeping period. In addition, growers should carry out reasonable final planting according to the growth of the vegetables. Watering and fertilizing are beneficial to vegetable growth and improve yield and quality.
