Seven jingles for planting sweet potatoes

The seven phrases for planting sweet potatoes are as follows:

January, February, potatoes and vegetables in March, a long bag.

February and March are the best time to plant sweet potatoes and other vegetables in spring. At the end of February and the beginning of March, the weather turned warmer. At this time, the sweet potato grows very fast, and the yield of sweet potato will be high. Moreover, planting sweet potatoes at this time has sufficient rain and less pests, which is helpful to improve the quality of sweet potatoes.

Second, farming without ridges will accomplish nothing.

There is a saying in our folk that "the tiller will fail if he doesn't make a ridge." It can be seen that ridging is very important for planting sweet potatoes; Because sweet potatoes are not resistant to waterlogging, they are planted in wet places, and only seedlings grow, not potato pieces.

In drought, there is no thick soil to retain water, keep the soil moist, and the land is dry and hardened, which will lead to only fibrous roots of sweet potatoes, and finally lead to reduced production or even no harvest; Wet seedlings are long, dry wood is long and dry roots are long. This is a fact.

Third, add a handful of ash to a nest of sweet potatoes, and the sweet potatoes form a large pile.

You should often hear such a jingle: "A nest of sweet potatoes is sprinkled with a handful of ash, and the sweet potatoes form a large pile", in which the ash refers to farm manure, including manure, plant ash, and self-fermented compost. There are also some old people who often say that "manure can't stop and sweet potatoes can't grow." Therefore, farmyard manure plays a vital role in high yield of sweet potato.

Fourth, planting sweet potatoes horizontally and onions vertically.

Many friends often worry about the cultivation of sweet potatoes. In fact, I can tell you that planting sweet potatoes horizontally is the best in our southern coastal areas, because there is no need to raise seedlings. Every year we plant sweet potato seedlings directly in the field, one by one. When planting, we plant it horizontally (also called flat load), and many knots will be buried in the soil.

Five, a nest of sweet potatoes and a bowl of water

A nest of sweet potatoes and a bowl of water, the nest here means that sweet potatoes grow in a nest, that is, when we plant sweet potatoes, we need to spray root water to increase the humidity of the soil at the root of sweet potato seedlings, avoid frostbite or sunburn of sweet potato seedlings, and increase the speed of awakening sweet potato seedlings; Of course, after planting in the spring after the solar term, there is no need to pour root water because of the abundant rain.

Sixth, the sweet potato is under control, and when digging, it is loaded with a laundry list.

The vigorous growth of sweet potato will seriously affect the yield of sweet potato, because after the vigorous growth of sweet potato, a large amount of nutrients absorbed by sweet potato roots will be supplied to the growth of leaves, and a small amount will be used for the growth of root tubers, resulting in fewer and smaller root tubers.

Therefore, in order to obtain high yield of sweet potato, it is necessary to control the growth of sweet potato seedlings, mainly provide nutrients for the growth of tuberous roots, increase the number and size of tuberous roots, and thus improve the yield.

Seven, a circle, no disease and no harm to a Changchun.

Presumably, everyone has the practice of rotating sowing or aerial sowing when planting crops. It's what we often call carousel. Plant sweet potatoes in this crop and other vegetables in the next. In a word, sweet potatoes can't be planted continuously and at intervals in the same plot, which will easily lead to more and more serious diseases and insect pests, which is also the main reason why sweet potatoes can't rotate.
