As the old saying goes, "a bunch of golden leeks in early spring", how to manage spring leeks during the rainy season? Four "Don't."
With the advent of the valley rain solar term, the popular leeks have regained their vitality. The so-called "handful of green onions in early spring" is to highlight the preciousness of leeks when they sprout in early spring. At this time, the leeks are rich in nutrition and have thick leaves, and are known as the "four fresh" in spring. However, how can you make leeks thrive? This is an issue that must be carefully considered. Let's explore the four "no's" operating principles of leeks to help you make leeks grow better.
Don't water it too early.
During the rainy season, spring is getting stronger, and some farmers often water in advance in order to promote seedlings. However, doing so will have the opposite effect. In early spring, the ground temperature is cold, the number of irrigation is high, and the soil temperature decreases, which is not conducive to the growth of spring onions. Especially in spring and autumn, low temperature weather is frequent, and watering in advance is likely to damage the roots of leeks, thus affecting the growth and development of plants. And in winter, due to the melting of snow, it can provide the nutrients of leeks, so leeks should not be watered too early.
The breath of spring is blowing in the face, and the leeks have come out of the soil, like a child, waiting for the sun to shine. At this time, irrigation too early will make the child who has just woken up be doused with a bucket of cold water, feeling cold and uncomfortable. Therefore, it is necessary to wait until the spring onion is gradually strengthened in the spring embrace and then properly watered to make it grow vigorously and show its best form.
Fertilizer should never be rushed.
Many farmers believe that timely application of leeks can increase the yield of leeks and ensure the normal growth of leeks. In late spring and early spring, leeks are mainly nutrients stored in melons, and no chemical fertilizers are needed. Organic fertilizers, such as wax fertilizers, are generally applied before winter, and they are slowly released in winter to provide the nutrients needed for the growth of leeks. Therefore, the early application of chemical fertilizer in late spring will not only cause a large loss of chemical fertilizer, but also have an adverse impact on the growth and development of leeks. Therefore, the application of spring onions should not be rushed.
Extended reading: Spring is the season when nature gives new life to all life. Instead of filling the barren land with all kinds of nutrients, it is better to let the leeks sprout on their own. The aroma of spring onions is that they store a lot of nutrients when they sleep in winter, so we should not interfere with their natural growth process too early, so that they can grow vigorously with the changes of the four seasons.
Do not take it out too soon.
Spring leeks are its important officials, but because they are generally dormant in winter, they generally do not have diseases such as senescence and insect pests. Therefore, there is no need to remove the root of the disease in early spring. On the premise of ensuring the normal growth of leeks, attention should be paid to the proper treatment of them to avoid unnecessary damage.
Extension: Leeks should be cared for as much as a flower is to its roots, just as a mother cares for her child's delicate hands. At this very important moment, we must have a clear understanding of the situation and not blindly pluck the onions, so as not to cause greater difficulties to the leeks. If there is a pest or old roots, then the only thing to do is to take measures so that the leeks can grow better.
Do not plough too early.
During the growth period, the roots of the onion are always developing upwards to ensure that its roots are healthy. However, spring onions have not yet formed tillers at the beginning of spring, and "fertilization" will seriously hinder the utilization of nutrients by leeks, thus having an adverse effect on their growth and development. Therefore, do not plough too early before spring, let the leeks grow naturally, and pull out the green body as soon as possible.
Under the early spring sun, the onions stretch out in the dirt, expecting more warmth. At this time, if you sow seeds in advance, it is equivalent to tying a rope to your feet that prevents you from growing. Therefore, the best way is to let the new onions absorb the sunlight and rain to the fullest, and grow vigorously, showing the charm of onions and garlic.
In short, the maintenance of leeks should be careful and careful, and adhere to the principle of four "nos" to ensure the vigorous growth of leeks. The vigorous vitality of spring leeks is not only a delicious dish, but also a sign of well-being. Let's take care of the thriving leeks together!
