Planting methods and precautions for honeysuckle
As a traditional Chinese medicinal material and an ornamental plant, honeysuckle has a direct impact on yield and quality. This paper will analyze the entire process from seedling raising to adult plant management, especially for the core parameter of planting density. Analysis of the whole process of scientific planting of honeysuckle pre-planting preparation stage 1. Seed activation treatment: Select plump seeds and place them in a constant temperature water bath at 40 ° C, continue to soak for 24 hours to activate the germ, transfer them to moist river sand and cover them with 2 cm soil, and maintain the substrate humidity of about 60%., it can be seen that the radicle breaks through the seed coat in 10 days. The substrate is scientifically prepared with a ratio of loam soil: humus soil: coarse sand =5:3:2, and the pH value is controlled between 6.5 and 7.2. Deep plowing depth needs to reach more than 40cm, and 2000kg of decomposed manure per mu should be applied as base fertilizer to ensure that the soil layer is loose and breathable. Precise planting operation specifications Select transplanting time The best planting period is that the average daily temperature in early spring is stable above 10℃, and transplanting in the afternoon on cloudy or sunny days is selected. Keep 15cm of main root when starting seedlings and dip it in rooting powder solution to improve survival rate. Planting density control adopts a wide and narrow row layout: main row spacing is 1.8m, auxiliary row spacing is 1.2m, and plant spacing is maintained at 1-1.2m. Through mathematical model calculation, the actual effective number of plants per mu should be controlled within the range of 420-450 plants, which not only ensures ventilation and light transmission, but also achieves efficient land use. Key points of full-cycle field management are to accurately control water and fertilizer during the seedling period. Implement the "two waters and three fertilizers" strategy: watering thoroughly root-fixing water after planting, and replenishing seedling slowing water after 3 days; topdressing with diluted manure water (1:10) and 0.3% urea solution, applied once every 15 days. Scientific management of light and build a 30% sunshade net to deal with strong summer light. Especially when the average daily temperature exceeds 30 ° C, shade protection needs to be carried out between 10:00 and 15:00. In winter, surrounding shade needs to be cleared to ensure full sunshine.
Through scientific planning of planting density and refined management, honeysuckle can enter a high-yield period after three years of planting, and the yield of dried flowers per mu can reach 80-120kg. It is recommended that growers establish a production log, record management parameters for each phenological period, and continuously optimize the cultivation system.
