Detailed Explanation of Golden Cicada Flower Planting Methods and Technical Key Points
Analyzed from a biological perspective, the golden cicada flower is a pathological phenomenon, that is, it is produced by mutation after an organism becomes diseased. The golden cicada flower has very high economic value and medicinal value, so many people want to make money by cultivating golden cicada flower. So how is golden cicada flower planted? Let us learn about it together.

1. Breeding Golden Cicadas
To cultivate golden cicada flower, you first need to raise golden cicadas. In other words, golden cicada flower is the product of disease in the cicada pupae of golden cicadas. Golden cicadas generally live in forests and survive by eating various trees in the woods. In ancient China, golden cicadas could actually also be used as medicine, so many people caught golden cicadas. To breed golden cicadas, we first need to choose a suitable location for golden cicadas to live, then select good golden cicada varieties, and then breeding can begin.
2. Management of Seed Insects
After golden cicadas have been bred for a period of time, they will naturally lay eggs. We need to manage the density of the bred golden cicadas, generally 500 males and 500 females per mu, so that about 250,000 cicada eggs can be produced per mu. When golden cicadas lay eggs, the environment should be kept quiet, as this will increase egg production and egg-laying efficiency.
3. Growing Environment
The environment suitable for the growth of golden cicada flower is generally an area with sunlight, relatively high temperature, and relatively high humidity. In this kind of environment, golden cicadas can grow very well. Therefore, if we cultivate golden cicada flower, we generally choose warm and rainy areas, and then when the golden cicadas become cicada pupae, they will be invaded by grasses and then grow mycelium.
4. During the Growth Period
In the early stage of growth, golden cicada flower grows inside the cicada pupa. Its growth mainly relies on the nutrients in the golden cicada pupa, and it will keep absorbing until the nutrients in the golden cicada are completely absorbed. Then in spring, the golden cicada flower will break through the soil, and it will need to rely on external nutrients for growth, so we need to provide it with sufficient nutrients to let it bloom. At the same time, after emerging from the soil, the golden cicadas need prevention against diseases and pests. The most common ones are generally ants and red flower bugs, and strong ammonia essence is needed for prevention.
5. Harvesting and Processing
Harvesting is generally relatively simple. After the golden cicada flower blooms and all the petals have fully opened, it can be harvested. Usually, the golden cicada flower is harvested together with the golden cicada pupa underground, then sun-dried or oven-dried, and finally packed and stored properly.
