How long is the growing period of taro?

The growth cycle of taro is generally 7 months. If it is an early-maturing variety, the time can be shortened and it can mature in about 6 months. Late-maturing varieties generally take more than 8 months to mature.

The growth and development stages of taro generally include the germination stage, seedling stage and maturity stage. Generally, the planting time of different varieties of taro is almost the same, around March, but the maturity time of early-maturing varieties is generally around August, and the maturity time of late-maturing varieties is around October.

The growth process of taro

1. Seedling stage

The germination period is generally short, and if the growth conditions are suitable, the germination period will be shortened.

2. Seedling stage

Generally, the seedling stage is mainly for vegetative growth, and there are usually no flowers blooming at this time.

3. Maturity

It can usually be harvested during the mature period, which lasts about a month. It needs more watering to help it bear better fruit.

Maintenance and management of taro during its growth period

1. Maintenance during the seedling stage: No fertilizer is needed during the seedling stage, but the temperature of the growth environment must be no less than 10 degrees Celsius.

2. Maintenance during the seedling stage: The seedlings need sufficient nutrients to grow, so it is best to apply fertilizer once a month to promote their growth.

3. Maintenance during the maturity period: During the maturity period, it is necessary to supplement it with light in time and control the amount of watering. Generally, the principle of small amounts and multiple times is sufficient.
