How to choose a site for Schisandra chinensis? Master these key points for site selection
Schisandra chinensis prefers neutral or slightly acidic loam or sandy loam with a thick soil layer, abundant humus, a loose and fertile texture, year-round moisture retention, and a low groundwater table, on flat land or shady slopes. It requires good ventilation and light, along with irrigation and drainage conditions. Schisandra chinensis is not drought-tolerant; it likes moisture but cannot withstand waterlogging. On waterlogged low-lying land or soil that stays excessively wet for long periods, its growth vigor is relatively weak. Therefore, when cultivating Schisandra chinensis artificially, plots with good drainage that do not easily accumulate water should be chosen. Sloped land should preferably not exceed l0 degrees.
