2: Planting time. Spring is suitable for Asparagus root growth is slow and it takes a long time to take root. Planting is most appropriate when spring temperatures are right. At this time, the temperature, humidity and other conditions required by Asparagus can be guaranteed.
3: Sunshine and humidity. Maintaining appropriate moisture Asparagus has strict requirements for sunshine and humidity and needs to be maintained under appropriate conditions. It is recommended to keep the soil moisture above 80%, and pay attention to regular spraying of water to maintain appropriate humidity.
Fourth: Climatic conditions. Preventing extreme weather effects requires high climatic conditions and cannot grow in an environment that is too cold or too hot. In addition, attention needs to be paid to prevent the impact of extreme weather, such as heavy rain and other weather, and timely measures need to be taken.
Five: Fertilization cycle. Appropriate fertilization will help the growth of Asparagus root slowly, and a certain period of fertilization is needed to ensure its growth. It is recommended to apply fertilizer 1-2 times a month and pay attention to the appropriate use of organic fertilizers. But at the same time, care should also be taken not to over-fertilize, otherwise it will cause root damage.
6: Pest and insect pest prevention to ensure the healthy growth of Asparagus. Asparagus is vulnerable to various pests and diseases during its growth, such as powdery mildew, aphids, etc. It is recommended to take timely preventive measures, such as spraying pesticides and controlling soil moisture. At the same time, regular inspections are also needed to deal with problems found in a timely manner.
Seven: Pruning treatment promotes branch growth. Asparagus grows slowly, and appropriate pruning treatment is needed to promote branch growth. It is recommended to prune once a month during the growing season to maintain the crown shape and promote the growth of Asparagus.
Eight: Temperature control, pay attention to the temperature difference between day and night. Asparagus also has higher temperature requirements, so it is necessary to pay attention to the control of the temperature difference between day and night. It is recommended to maintain a suitable temperature and avoid growing in too cold or too hot environments.
Nine: Water quality control to avoid affecting the growth of Asparagus. Asparagus has high requirements for water quality and needs to use pollution-free water sources for maintenance. It is recommended to use non-polluted water sources such as tap water, and pay attention to avoid using unsuitable water sources such as chlorinated water or well water.
Ten: maintain air circulation, prevent the breeding of bacteria during the growth of asparagus need to maintain air circulation, to avoid harmful substances such as bacteria breeding around it. It is suggested to keep the plant spacing smaller and strengthen ventilation management to keep the air fresh during planting.
Eleven: moderate shade, avoid excessive sunlight Asparagus has higher requirements for sunlight, but excessive sunlight exposure will adversely affect its growth. It is recommended to provide moderate shade under appropriate conditions to ensure its growth.
Twelve: Drainage measures to avoid damage caused by water immersion. Asparagus needs well-drained soil to grow, otherwise its root development will be affected. It is recommended to strengthen drainage measures to prevent damage caused by water immersion.
13: Grasp the timing of harvesting to ensure that the effective ingredient of Asparagus is a plant with medicinal value. Appropriate timing needs to be grasped when harvesting. It is recommended to harvest it in autumn, when the active ingredient content of Asparagus is higher and has better medicinal effects.
XIV: Storage methods to prevent damage to asparagus after harvesting, asparagus needs appropriate storage methods to ensure its medicinal effect. It is recommended to store it in a dry and ventilated environment, and pay attention to measures such as moisture and insect prevention to avoid damage.
Fifteen: Scientifically maintain Asparagus to grow healthily. In the process of maintaining Asparagus, we need to pay attention to many details, such as soil selection, fertilization cycle, pest and disease prevention, etc. Only by scientific maintenance can we grow healthily and exert its medicinal effects.
