Stevia planting method, stevia planting method

<> stevia is a perennial herbaceous plant in the Asteraceae family, which has a relatively high use value and can be used in four aspects: edible, medicinal, feed, and fertilizer. Stevia is a plant introduced from Japan in China, which is mainly planted in Beijing, Anhui, Hebei, Shandong, Xinjiang, Yunnan and other places, of course, a small amount is also planted in other regions. So how is stevia grown?

How do you grow it? Let's learn together.

1. Preparation of soil and fertilizer.

Stevia has the characteristics of liking warmth, humidity, low temperature resistance, waterlogging, water accumulation, and drought resistance, and it is also known to be very sensitive to light, so the longest light time is 12 hours. Then the planting area should generally be well-drained and close to the water source, followed by loose and fertile soil, and the sun should not exceed 12 hours. Deep ploughing of the soil, combined with fertilization, the base fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer, leveling the ground, ditching and furrowing.

2. Cultivate strong seedlings.

When raising seedlings, we need to prepare the seedbed, which is generally selected in a place that is sheltered from the wind, sunny drainage and watering. The soil of the seedbed is preferably sandy loam, and after the seedbed is prepared, a shade should be built. Stevia can be grown all year round and can be propagated by seed and cuttings.

According to the row spacing of five centimeters, the plant spacing is about two centimeters, cuttings and seed seedlings are raised. After planting, it should be watered in time and kept warm at night to promote the emergence of seedlings and the growth of the root system.

3. Transplanting and colonization.

The day before the seedlings are pulled and transplanted, we need to water them once and water the seedbed thoroughly. The next day, the seedlings should be transplanted, and the soil should be taken away when the seedlings are moved, so as not to hurt the root system of the plant. When transplanting, it is done before and after rainfall, so that the survival rate of transplanted seedlings will be higher.

The temperature of planting is generally about 12 to 15 degrees, and the number of plants planted per mu is about 10,000 according to the row spacing of 45 to 50 centimeters and the plant spacing is 15 to 20 centimeters.

4. Daejeon management.

After planting, it is necessary to water in time until the plant survives, usually once a day for three days, and then once a week to keep the soil moist. At the same time, we also need to remove weeds in time according to the growth of weeds in the field, so as not to absorb nutrients for weeds and affect the normal growth of plants. When the seedlings have grown ten to fourteen true leaves, the first topping is required, and the first topdressing is also required, mainly with urea.

The second topping is the time of the second top dressing, which is generally when the branches grow ten to fourteen true leaves, or sprinkle urea. Finally, it is necessary to pay attention to the prevention of blight, black spot disease, ground tigers, grubs and other pests.

Stevia is not only a medicinal herb, but also a kind of food, a kind of feed, and a fertilizer, so the natural market value is also very good. On top of that, stevia is also very simple to grow and easy to survive. If you still encounter any problems in the later stage, remember to give me feedback in time.
