2. Water

Lotus root is an aquatic vegetable, which consumes a lot of water quickly, but its root system has a weak ability to absorb water. It likes shallow water and high temperature, and is not tolerant to drought. It must always maintain a certain depth of water layer during its growth.

The water level should be shallow in the germination period, so as to improve the soil temperature and promote early germination and rapid growth. The water level should be deep in the vigorous growth period, so as to help the plants grow strong, and the water level should be lowered in the lotus-root period to promote early lotus-root.

3. Soil fertilizer

Generally, the fertilizer is mainly base fertilizer, with base fertilizer accounting for 7% of the total fertilization amount, supplemented by topdressing, accounting for 3%. The base fertilizer is mainly fully decomposed chicken manure, pig manure and soil miscellaneous fertilizer, with diammonium, potassium sulfate or ternary compound fertilizer, and the topdressing is urea compound fertilizer.
