Detailed Explanation of Three-Dimensional Rapid Cultivation Techniques for Chinese Toon
1. When the average outdoor temperature is 18°C, it can be produced in open fields, but it should be properly shaded, protected from direct sunlight, sprayed with water frequently, and kept at an appropriate temperature. During the hot summer season, measures such as shading, spraying water, and cooling should be adopted to keep the temperature within 35°C, otherwise growth will stop. In winter, early spring, and late autumn, greenhouses and plastic tunnels can be used for production. The most suitable temperature for Chinese toon sprouts is around 26°C.
2. To save land, three-dimensional cultivation can be adopted. The cultivation frame is made of materials such as angle iron, steel bars, bamboo poles, and wooden sticks. The cultivation frame is set up with 3 to 5 layers, with a spacing of 30 cm to 40 cm between each layer, and the width depends on the length of the seedling tray. For ease of operation, the height should generally not exceed 1.65 m.
3. Seedling trays made of lightweight plastic are preferable. This can reduce the load-bearing weight of the cultivation frame, and wooden trays are also acceptable. The tray specifications are about 60 cm long, 25 cm wide, and 5 cm high, to facilitate movement and harvesting.
4. The cultivation soil commonly used is clean washed sand.
5. Spraying equipment: the growth cycle of Chinese toon sprouts is short, and the water-holding capacity of the substrate is basically sufficient to meet the water needs of the sprouts throughout the entire growth period. After the sprouts grow out of the substrate, they should be sprayed at regular intervals; do not pour water.
6. The selection of the site should be determined according to seasonal changes. Wang Bohui
