Expensive early spring leeks, how to take care of spring leeks during the rainy season? Four maintenance points
* The value of green onions in early spring.
Lu Yin was speechless. Leeks are a popular vegetable that is easy to grow, does not require much care, and can be grown for ten years in a row, which is why it is called "lazy dish". However, this does not mean that "lazy food" can be ignored, and it needs to be carefully taken care of in order to achieve high yields. The so-called "early spring leeks a handful" is spring, the nutrients of leeks are mainly melon roots, therefore, early spring leeks are rich in nutrients, the leaves are thick, and they are known as the "four fresh" in early spring. In the rainy season, how to raise leeks? Let's discuss how to make leeks grow better from the perspective of four "nos".
Expansion: In early spring, everything recovers, and the leeks rejuvenate after a long hibernation. At this time, the first batch of green onions in early spring, like a golden light, shimmered in the sun. The melon-like roots of the leeks in early spring store a lot of nutrients, which not only tastes good, but also has high nutritional value, making it a delicious dish. With the approach of the rainy season, there are more and more leeks, therefore, the reasonable cultivation of leeks to make them grow vigorously and the leaves are full, which is the most concerned problem for farmers.
Do not promote the flowering of leeks.
With the arrival of rain, the temperature gradually rises, and the rainfall also increases, and the change of the earth's breath is felt, and the spring leeks also sprout. Some farmers mistakenly believe that after the spring onion has undergone the "dormancy" of the "winter onion", the right amount of water can promote its growth, but this is not the case. After the recovery of leeks in early spring, the soil temperature is low, especially in early spring, when the temperature is high, and early watering is not favorable. Onion roots are the source of life, and too much water can damage the roots, hindering their growth and development. At this time, the ground temperature is cold, and it often rains, and the leeks themselves can fully absorb moisture, so it is not advisable to water it too early.
Expansion: Spring is coming, rain is coming, and spring leeks are like the first songs from the land that has woken up from its slumber. In the spring, many farmers will try their best to "replenish" water to the leeks so that they can grow faster. However, spring leeks should not be watered too early. Just like people don't drink too much water after waking up, but in early spring, due to the cold soil, watering it too much will hinder its growth. At this time, the leeks are slowly waking up from their sleep and slowly adapting to their growth. What's more, the snow in winter has already brought enough water to the leeks, so there is no need to rush to water the leeks, just let the leeks grow slowly on their own.
Do not rush to apply fertilizer to spring leeks.
Some believe that the use of chemical fertilizers can help leeks grow faster and increase yields. However, the nutrients required for the early germination of leeks are mainly stored in the root system of melons, and the demand for external chemical fertilizers is less at this stage. And before winter, they also sprinkled some fertilizer, which was used to slow down the growth of leeks in the spring. Applying too much chemical fertilizer will accelerate the growth and development of leeks, which will affect the quality of leeks. In addition, the decomposition of organic fertilizer is also aerobic, and the early application of chemical fertilizer is very easy to make the leeks not fully decomposed before harvesting, thus seriously reducing the quality of leeks.
Expansion: Some people feel that leeks grow well and grow fat, but they are afraid that leeks "lack nutrients", so they will keep stuffing leeks into leeks. But the growth of leeks does not require so much external assistance. In fact, spring leeks are well nourished before they enter the winter season, and they are well prepared for the next year's growth. Moreover, if you fertilize the leeks too early, it will have the opposite effect, making the growth rate of the leeks slower and the taste will also be affected. In addition, excessive fertilizer application can also lead to fertilizer waste and pollution. Therefore, do not rush to apply fertilizer to the leeks and let the leeks grow healthily according to their own growth rules.
Don't be hasty when cutting roots.
Leeks have a root system as the main body, and over time, the root system gradually senesces and is susceptible to diseases and diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the green onion seedlings at the right time. However, leeks planted in early spring do not have to be peeled too early. The roots of leeks are dormant throughout the hibernation period, so they do not overage at this time. In order to avoid the adverse consequences of the absorption of nutrients and the growth and development of leeks, it is recommended not to do it too early when cutting the roots in the early stage.
Extension: The roots of leeks are the source of life for the whole plant, and in the long-term growth process, their roots will gradually senes, and they are highly vulnerable to pests and diseases. Therefore, it makes sense to go to the green onion root often. However, in early spring, the roots of leeks are still in hibernation, and they have not yet fully stretched and grown rapidly. In this case, the root system is stable, the root system is intact, and it is not necessary to deroot prematurely. When the leeks have grown and developed for a certain period of time and gradually become stronger, they can be removed in time to ensure their normal growth.
It is also good to keep the land properly.
In the process of growth and development, "root skipping" often occurs, that is, the roots of the plant climb up at a fixed speed. Ploughing is often done to keep the roots healthy. However, for leeks in early spring, it is not necessary to sow them in advance. The spring leeks have just woken up, and the roots have not yet fully stretched, so ploughing will hinder the nutrition of the onions, resulting in the growth and development of the onions being limited to a certain extent. Therefore, during the germination period of leeks, there is no need to rush to fertilize and let the leeks grow naturally.
Expansion: In the growth and development of green onions, "root skipping" often occurs, that is, the roots of the plant will expand upwards for a period of time in a year. Under normal circumstances, in order to maintain the healthy growth of the roots, it is necessary to carry out frequent tillage work. However, in early spring, leeks have just woken up, and the root system has not yet been fully extended, so "fertilization" will hinder the utilization of nutrients by leeks, and then hinder the normal growth and development of leeks. Therefore, in the spring, do not rush to plough and let it grow naturally, so as to better promote the growth of leeks.
The conclusion is: a handful of leeks in early spring, how to deal with the shallots in the rainy season? Through the method of "four "no", that is: no water, no fertilizer, no roots, no roots, no loosening of soil, the growth of spring leeks has been in a good development trend. As the saying goes, at the beginning of the day, spring is the same, timely maintenance ensures the growth of leeks, and adds a fresh taste of spring to the people's table. May everyone who grows onions harvest a good harvest in the spring.
