Clever Seed Treatment Methods and Key Technical Points for Pinellia ternata
Treating the seeds of medicinal herbs before sowing plays a major role in preventing and controlling pests and diseases, raising the germination rate, and ensuring uniform, complete and vigorous seedlings. It is the primary prerequisite for stable and high yields, generally increasing the yield by 5%-20%. The methods for treating Pinellia ternata seeds are described below: (1) before sowing, soak the seeds in a 3-fold dilution of 50% carbendazim plus 40% phosethyl-Al (yield increase is significant); (2) soak the seeds separately in a 300-fold dilution of rice vinegar, 50 mg/L potassium permanganate, and 5% plant ash solution (prevents root rot).
