A comprehensive explanation of the issues that should be paid attention to when transplanting chili seedlings, related topics in flower cultivation, let's understand together.
What issues should be paid attention to when transplanting chili seedlings
Preparations such as fertilizing, bed preparation, watering the seedbed, and disinfection and pest control are important processes before transplanting chili. First, prepare an appropriate amount of well-fermented organic fertilizer, apply it to the planting area, deeply turn the soil, and mix it evenly with the soil. After shallow ultraviolet disinfection, it can reduce the incidence of diseases and pests, increase water and fertilizer retention, and improve the survival rate of chili seedlings.
Chili not only has a long growth cycle but also continues to grow indefinitely, constantly flowering, fruiting, and requires transplanting if early fruiting is desired in open-air vegetable gardens.
① Planting TimeOpen-air vegetable gardens are generally planted in spring and summer. Early planting can lead to a longer harvest period and higher economic benefits, while late planting results in a shorter harvest period and lower economic benefits.
In spring, the natural temperature is unstable, and using the method of seedling raising before transplanting can advance the harvest time and is also suitable for other vegetables such as tomatoes, luffa, cucumbers, green beans, and scallions.
② Seedling RaisingSeedling raising and transplanting is an important model for increasing yield in modern agriculture, with the advantages of low investment, low cost, and high economic benefits.
In order to increase chili yield, it is necessary to lay a good foundation during the seedling raising period, produce more high-quality seedlings, and reduce the probability of poor-quality seedlings.
Strictly control temperature and humidity to prevent seedlings from getting diseases and pests. From seedling emergence to before transplanting is a long and careful management process.
③ TransplantingPreparations such as fertilizing, bed preparation, watering the seedbed, and disinfection and pest control are important processes before transplanting chili.
Firstly, prepare an appropriate amount of well-fermented organic fertilizer, apply it to the planting area, deeply turn the soil, and mix it evenly with the soil.
After shallow ultraviolet disinfection, it can reduce the incidence of diseases and pests, increase water and fertilizer retention, and improve the survival rate of chili seedlings.
Seedlings in the seedbed need to go through 30 to 50 days, and when they grow to 20 centimeters high, they can be transplanted.
This period is the most critical for transplanting. Although chili is easy to survive, it should not be too late. If chili seedlings are transplanted too late, it will affect flowering and fruit setting time, and thus reduce yield.
The day before transplanting, first spray water and disinfect the seedbed to improve drought resistance, and prevent the roots from separating from the soil during transplanting, which is an important part of improving survival rate.
④ Water and Fertilizer ManagementChili is a vegetable that loves fertilizer. It is necessary to choose fermented organic fertilizer as a base fertilizer before transplanting and to continuously top-dress during the growth period. Preparations should be made in open-air vegetable gardens where watering is inconvenient.
Top-dress before rain and carry out field loosening and watering after transplanting to promote seedling recovery and improve survival rate.
The above is a specific introduction to the issues that should be paid attention to when transplanting chili seedlings, hoping to bring some flower knowledge to flower enthusiasts.
