How to cultivate dog liver vegetable

1. Soil

The cultivation of dog liver grass does not require very high soil quality. It can be planted in soil with medium fertility and good drainage. It does not grow well in clay soil. Cannot be cropped continuously. When breeding, you can sprinkle some charcoal at the bottom of the soil to increase soil permeability.

2. Lighting

The length of sunlight exposure should be ensured every day. But avoid strong sunlight, otherwise it will easily cause the plant's stems and leaves to become hard and of poor quality. It is best to choose a well-ventilated location where it can see light all year round, and it can be cultivated in a greenhouse.

3. Temperature

Its optimal growth temperature is around 15 degrees Celsius and it cannot tolerate high temperatures. During the high temperature period in summer, you should take precautions to avoid the heat and avoid being exposed to high temperature and sun for a long time.

4. Watering

Dog liver grass is more suitable for a relatively humid environment, so after planting, it should be watered several times in a row to allow the seedlings to grow slowly, and the surrounding air should be kept moist. However, preparations for drainage and waterlogging prevention should also be made at all times to prevent root rot and death.

5. Fertilization

Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied during planting to ensure that about 20 kg of decomposed organic fertilizer (mixed in a ratio of about 3:1 of diluted manure to ternary compound fertilizer) is applied per mu.

6. Notes

1. Pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insects. During the period of high insect pests in spring and autumn, you can irrigate the roots with 1000 times diluted 80% dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane every 5-7 days. Repeating 2-3 times can be effective in preventing and controlling pests. When rust occurs, spray 300 times diluted 5% sulfuric acid suspension once every 7-10 days. Spraying 5 times in a row can eradicate it.

2. The weeds around it should be cleaned regularly. If not cleaned in time, it is easy to cause root disorder and slow growth.
