2. Seedling methods for Epimedium seeds

1. Choosing the site and making beds

Choose the natural conditions of a shady slope or a half-shady half-sunny slope, with a slope of 35 degrees C or less, and soil that is slightly acidic leaf litter humus soil, black loam soil or black sandy loam soil. You can use broad-leaved forest or mixed coniferous-broad-leaved forest and fruit tree economic forest for understory cultivation. Remove the turf from the ground under the forest, and along the slope make strip beds 120-140 cm wide and 12-15 cm high, plant seedlings in cross strip trenches, with a trench depth of 6-10 cm.

2. Sowing time

Epimedium seeds have a short lifespan, so after collecting the seeds in mid-June they should be sown immediately. Seeds stored under special circumstances should also be sown before the ground freezes that same year. Under special circumstances they can be sown in the following spring after the ground thaws.

3. Broadcast sowing for seedlings

For broadcast sowing of Epimedium, dig shallow grooves 3-5 cm deep in the bed, level the bottom of the grooves with sifted fine humus soil, then sow. After sowing, cover with 0.5-1 cm of sifted fine humus soil, then cover with a layer of fallen leaves or similar to keep the soil moist. Water thoroughly once before sowing or after covering with soil. Sowing rate 10-15 grams per square meter.

4. Drill sowing for seedlings

For drill sowing of Epimedium, open grooves across the bed, with a row spacing of 10-15 cm and a groove depth of 3-4 cm. After opening the grooves, press the bottom firm, then sow in the grooves, cover with 0.5-1 cm of soil, and cover with fallen leaves or similar. Sowing rate 10 grams per cubic meter.

5. Understory seedling raising

For seed seedling raising under mountain forest, choose relatively flat gentle slope land, clear the understory shrubs and weeds, and appropriately thin out overly dense trees and branches so that the canopy density is around 0.5-0.7. Then make beds 1.2 m wide and 20-25 cm high along the diagonal line of the hillside, apply base fertilizer well, and sow according to the flatland seedling method. For rhizome seedling raising under mountain forest, remove the understory shrubs and weeds completely, make planting belts along the contour lines, loosen the soil to a belt width of 30-50 cm, pick out the stems and roots, and then plant.
