It's the middle of May, and it's almost time to reach Xiaoman, and for most areas, all kinds of vegetables have been planted, but vegetables are not only planted with seeds, but also transplanted with seedlings after planting. In fact, in addition to all kinds of fruits and vegetables, there are several kinds of vegetables that need to be transplanted, and in May and June is the best time to transplant, not too late, late will affect the yield. Let's take a look.
1. Green onions
Regardless of green onions or shallots, after planting, when the seedlings grow to a certain extent, they need to be transplanted, which is called seedling division. Because the seeds are scattered too much during planting, the seedlings are dense, and the growth will be affected if they are not transplanted. Onions are generally planted in autumn and spring, and in May and June, the onion seedlings have grown very tall, and they can be dug up for transplanting at this time. If the transplanting is too late, the first seedling is too dense to grow, and the second transplanting is too late to affect the growth and yield. Therefore, in general, it is a good time to transplant in May and June, and all localities can transplant in time according to the size and growth of green onion seedlings.
Transplanting onions also requires a particular method, and it is not just a matter of planting them. The spacing of the plant rows during transplanting should be determined according to the variety and specific conditions of the onion. When transplanting, first hug the ditch, pour water, and put the green onion upright into the ditch, do not swing obliquely, the green onion is easy to bend after the swing grows up, which affects the quality. After the soil is finished, it can not be shallow or deep, and the shallows are white and short, and the deep ones will lead to rotten hearts. After planting, the soil is covered with soil that does not bury the heart of the onion, and the soil can be cultivated in stages according to the growth in the future. In addition, prune the root system of the green onion before transplanting to help slow down the seedlings.
II. Rinsai
Leeks For friends who like to grow vegetables, they must want to plant some, and this kind of vegetable can be harvested for several years at a time. Leeks need to be transplanted, and the planted leek seedlings need to be transplanted when they grow up, and the transplanted leeks need to be transplanted again after 2-3 years of growth. But leeks are also a good time to transplant in May and June, whether they are planted or want to re-divide seedlings, they can be transplanted in May and June.
Transplanting leeks is not dug out and can be transplanted, before transplanting you need to prune, prune off too many roots, only keep one-third of the root system, and then cut off the overly long leaves, keep five or six centimeters long leaves. By pruning, it can be quickly slowed down after transplanting. Because the root system of leeks ages quickly, if not pruned, it will affect the development of new roots. If the leaves are too long, too much water will be consumed and evaporated, and the leaves are easy to wilt, which is not conducive to slowing down the seedlings. In addition, in addition to transplanting leeks in May and June, they can also be transplanted in autumn, but Futian is not suitable for transplanting.
3. Summer potatoes
Summer potatoes are generally transplanted after harvesting wheat, and the stem segments can be cut from the sweet potato vines planted in the spring, the stem length is about 20 cm, and then the base leaves are cut off, leaving the upper 3-5 leaves. When transplanting, as with seedlings, it can be inserted diagonally into the ridge, watered after planting, and then covered with soil. Don't look at the cut sweet potato stem segments that don't have a root system, but they will take root and grow soon after transplanting.
In May and June, in addition to green onions, leeks and summer potatoes can be transplanted, there are many vegetables that can be planted and transplanted, such as: peppers, eggplants, okra, summer cucumbers, summer cowpeas, bok choy, edamame, bitter gourd, corn, etc., which can be arranged according to the local climate.
