How to apply base fertilizer for ginger? Please save this fertilization plan
Ginger is a very important side vegetable in China (mainland), and it is grown on a relatively large area across the country. When planting ginger, we need to do a good job of fertilization. And the first thing to do well in fertilization is applying base fertilizer; reasonably applying base fertilizer is a key measure to ensure the healthy growth of ginger. So how should we apply base fertilizer when planting ginger? Today the editor brings you a fertilization plan for ginger base fertilizer. Let's take a look together below!
1. Combine with land preparation
When applying base fertilizer, we need to carry it out together with land preparation. First, evenly broadcast fully decomposed farmyard manure over the ginger field, then do a good job of deep plowing and turning the soil; the deep plowing depth should be kept at about 30cm. Ensure the base fertilizer is fully mixed with the soil, mainly to avoid soil compaction and improve soil activity and temperature. Ensure that ginger can germinate and emerge normally after sowing. And at sowing time, if the climate is dry and there is no rainfall, then before deep plowing you should also do a good job of watering to provide sufficient moisture for ginger germination.
2. Control row spacing
When planting ginger, we also need to dig the sowing furrows for ginger. This is mainly to create a suitable soil environment for ginger, encourage the ginger roots to grow downward, and ensure the ginger tubers can grow normally. The depth of the ginger sowing furrow should be kept at about 35cm. After digging the sowing furrows, score the furrow bottom again to break the plow pan in the soil and ensure the ginger roots can grow downward normally. Then when establishing row spacing, mainly use wide rows, which can improve the permeability between rows, enhance photosynthesis of ginger plant stems and leaves, and is very beneficial for increasing yield, and also facilitates management work during planting.
3. Formula fertilization
When applying base fertilizer, pay attention to mainly using formula fertilization. It should be done in April each year, on the day of ginger sowing or the day before. In the ginger sowing furrows, pay attention to applying an appropriate amount of highly active biological bacteria to ensure sufficient base fertilizer and carry out balanced fertilization. Provide sufficient nutrients for ginger plant growth and prevent ginger from experiencing fertilizer deficiency or fertilizer interruption in the middle and late growth stages, thereby affecting the normal growth of ginger. And note that the fertilizer must be fully mixed with the soil before sowing, to improve soil fertility and provide sufficient nutrients for ginger growth.
The above is a brief introduction to the fertilization plan for ginger base fertilizer. Applying base fertilizer to ginger is very important, but we should also pay attention to doing a good job of topdressing. Because ginger has a very large demand for nutrients throughout its entire growth period, topdressing is a key measure to meet ginger's nutrient needs at each different growth stage. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only, and I hope it can help everyone!
