Around the Qingming Festival, as the cold winter gradually passed, agricultural production began to flourish. There is an ancient agricultural proverb that says: "Before and after the Qingming Festival, plant melons and beans", which is the wisdom summed up by the ancients in long-term farming practice. In agricultural production, temperature is the key factor affecting the suitability of vegetables for planting. Now, we will introduce five fast-growing and suitable vegetables for cultivation, hoping to provide some suggestions for vegetable growers and farmers.
Green bean.
Green beans, also known as kidney beans, are mainly cultivated in central and southern regions such as Henan, Hubei and other places. Dwarf varieties take about 40 days from sowing to harvesting, while creeping varieties are slightly later by about a week. Dwarf varieties such as Eisheng kidney beans can last for a month and a half to harvest, while creeping varieties can last up to two months. In the northern region, to ensure that the soil temperature is not lower than 10 after sowing, you can cover it with white mulch film to increase the ground temperature.
Cucumber.
Cucumbers are among the more early-maturing melons, taking only 45-60 days from sowing to harvesting. Cucumbers have the characteristics of early flowering and fruiting, and most of them are strong female or all-female varieties, so it is necessary to increase the amount of fertilizer, especially potassium fertilizer, to prevent the phenomenon of melon transformation caused by insufficient nutrient supply. In the production process of cucumbers, it is necessary to pay attention to thinning flowers and fruits, and keep one melon at each node.
Cherry radish.
Cherry radish is a miniature and petite radish variety that takes only 25-30 days from seedling emergence to harvest, and is a representative of fast-growing vegetables. In order to maintain the quality of the product, it is necessary to harvest in time, and to pay attention to the prevention of aphids, you can use an insect net to cover it. During the growth process, cherry radish should not be applied too much nitrogen fertilizer, and potassium fertilizer should be used mainly to ensure a crisp and tender taste.
Chicken hairy vegetables.
Cabbage is a type of bok choy that grows quickly and takes only 35-40 days from sowing to harvesting. When cultivating in the open field, it is best to make high furrows to increase the ground temperature and promote root growth. The root system of the chicken hairy cabbage is shallow, and the ability to absorb water is relatively weak, so it is necessary to keep the soil moisture content high. Throughout the growing season, it is necessary to keep the topsoil slightly whitish, and pay attention to the seedlings to avoid the occurrence of diseases.
Spinach.
Spinach is a common variety of leafy vegetables and can be eaten whole. From sowing to harvesting, spinach takes 25-30 days. At the time of sowing, a large density can be maintained, and after the emergence of seedlings, seedlings can be thinned when adjacent seedlings shade each other. It should be noted that during the "long day" stage, when the light time gradually becomes longer, spinach is prone to sprouts and flower. Although the value of the commodity decreases after flowering, the flower sprouts are still edible and have a crisp and tender taste.
These five kinds of vegetables grow quickly and are suitable for cultivation, and for vegetable lovers and farmers, they can be cultivated in the right season to achieve the effect of fast planting and quick harvest.
