How to manage moso bamboo well

1. Renovate the mountain and plow the soil deeply

Repairing the moso bamboo is to cut down the weeds in the bamboo forest and arrange them in the mountain forest so that they can decay after decay. Become an organic fertilizer for moso bamboo. Normally, the time for mountain construction is between July and September every year. The time to loosen the bamboo forest is generally in winter, and it is done once every 4-5 years. When deep plowing the bamboo forest to loosen the soil, it is necessary to cover the topsoil, clear the large rocks in the bamboo forest, and dig tree pockets, bamboo pockets, etc. to facilitate the bamboo weaving to move through the land.

2. Scientific fertilization

Moso bamboo grows very fast and has high unit yield, so it needs to absorb more nutrients from the soil, so the soil nutrients in this area are lost quickly. . Therefore, it is necessary to fertilize the soil to replenish nutrients to the soil. Between May and June every year, fertilization can be carried out after the bamboo forest has been tended. Under normal circumstances, organic fertilizers with rotten heat are the best choice.

3. Moso bamboo cultivation and harvesting management

Reasonable harvesting of moso bamboo requires the following aspects: harvesting time, age of harvested bamboo, harvesting method, harvesting intensity, etc. Come on manpower. Generally speaking, moso bamboo forests are most common in forests of different ages, and the growth ages of moso bamboo in bamboo forests are not exactly the same. Therefore, the harvesting can only be carried out selectively according to the age of the bamboo. Under normal circumstances, moso bamboos that are 6 or 7 years old are harvested. If the bamboo is more than 7 years old, it must be cut down. Bamboo that is less than 5 years old should be retained and harvested after waiting for it to grow.

At the same time, the best time to harvest moso bamboo is after the white dew. At this time, the temperature is relatively low, the humidity is low, and the air is relatively dry. Therefore, the physiological activity of moso bamboo is weak and the flexibility is strong. , less insect infestation. When harvesting, it needs to be harvested according to the age of the moso bamboo, its distribution, growth status, diseases and insect pests, etc. Always follow the principle of cutting down the old and leaving the young, cutting down the dense and leaving the sparse, cutting down the small and leaving the big, and cutting down the weak and leaving the strong. At the same time, before felling, the moso bamboo to be cut needs to be marked in advance and then cut. For Moso bamboos in their flowering years, choose those whose leaves have turned yellow for cutting.

4. Technology and management of moso bamboo cultivation and bamboo shoot retention

Winter bamboo shoots are the predecessor of spring bamboo shoots and are also an important stage in the growth of moso bamboo. Regarding the digging of winter bamboo shoots, if relevant regulations are not followed, the output of spring bamboo shoots will be reduced. Therefore, when digging winter bamboo shoots, you need to choose bamboo plants with thicker and darker green branches and leaves, and follow the direction of removing the whip to find a place with softer soil before digging carefully. After digging the winter bamboo shoots, they need to be filled in and organic fertilizer can be applied to them.

In April and May every year, the bamboo shoots grow most vigorously. At this time, management and protection must be strengthened. This is especially true for small-year bamboo forests that are changing leaves, so as to avoid uneven sizes, which in turn affects the total output of the bamboo forest. During this period, the bamboo shoots need to be inspected and those that have suffered from pests and diseases should be removed in a timely manner. In addition, grazing is strictly prohibited in the bamboo forest during the spring bamboo shoot period, and various insect pests must be prevented and treated.
