Well, i'm just a market man who brings you up to date every day
Every fall, a lot of friends are busy growing cabbage. Whether it is a rural vegetable garden, or an urban balcony, or a roof-top vegetable, cabbage is almost compulsory for family members. Winter pickles, stewed paste, fried foods, wrappings are very useful。
Many people think it's easy to plant cabbage, so we can plant seeds, then put some fertilizer on it, and wait to grow up. However, there are many people in the reality who have grown up and have grown up with various problems. Some are just growing, and the roots are rotting and dying; others are getting weaker and taller, long and windy; and others look alive and grow slow, leaves yellow, and at the end, they don't have tight cabbage。
The first reaction of many vegetable farmers to this situation is a lack of fat, and hurry up with urea. As a result, the seedlings burn down and die more. It took half a day to discover that the problem was not fertilizer, but water was wrong。
To be honest, cabbage sprouts are watering, looking simple, and there's a lot of doorways. A lot of friends, including older people with many years of experience, have always been wrong about watering. Whether it be rained from day to day, the earth is soaking wet, or it is afraid that it will be flooded, and the water will not be watered for more than a dozen days, so that the seedling may dry up. Both practices damage the roots of cabbage seedlings。
Shrimp periods are the basic stage of the entire growing cycle of cabbage. The seedlings were weak and shallow. It depends to a large extent on how the water is managed. Today, the watering of cabbage is covered in great white language, from seedlings, leaf periods, seedling periods, shifting of seedlings, to water-watering error zones, supporting management. Whether you grow it in daejeon or in a small garden in your home, after reading it, you can fix the watering habits。
First, to understand the nature of cabbage seedlings, watering is not based on feeling
If you want to get the water right, first you have to understand what the root is like. Many watered the leaves with their eyes, and the leaves were pouring at them, which was the cause of the mistake。
And when the cabbage comes forth, there is only a small primary root, and few sides. Most of the whole root system is found in the layer of dirt down 3-8 cm below the surface. Not too deep, but very thin。
The seedlings at this stage have two contradictory characteristics。
First, small leaves are tender, the evaporation is slow, the soil is dry and the leaves above will be stung
Second, it's very thin, and it's particularly afraid of water. As long as the surface soil continues to accumulate water, the soil is suffocated, and there is a lack of oxygen in the soil, in less than two or three days, the thin roots of hair will rot. Once the roots rot, even the green leaves are left on the surface, and the seedlings are gone。
There is a trap where the food is the easiest to step on: when you see the leaves falling, you pour water. The leaves are sore that they do not exactly amount to a shortage of water. Sometimes the sun is large at noon, the temperature is high, the leaves are evaporated too quickly, and temporarily squirt, until the temperature comes down in the evening, and then they re-establish themselves. This physiological atrophy does not require recharge. Many friends were confused, watered as soon as they saw it, the soil was wet and the seedlings were flattened。
A simple sentence summarizes the root properties of cabbage during the period: glamour, but water is not allowed to accumulate; soil is needed to be fluent and soil is needed to breathe. And it cannot be dried out of the ground, nor can it be made of mud。
What are the criteria for soil moisture suitable for cabbage seedlings? Grabs a 5-10 cm field with your hand, lays it in your hand and can form a mass, and then touch it lightly and spread. This state of humidity is the ideal humidity of the seeding period. The dripping of water is too wet; it's too dry when it's all crushed. Before watering, you can grab a piece of dirt and judge without just looking at the state of the leaves。
Ii. Phased management: what to do with water during periods after seeding
The sapling season is not static and is divided into several stages: the post-planting stage, the leaf expansion period, the 2-4 sapling period, and the post-plantation period. At every stage, water-watering strategies are completely different。
1. After seeding, before seeding: preserve the main, don't pour too much water
Many people, after having ordered the seed of cabbage, poured water over and over again in order to grow as quickly as possible. Once the topsoil is washed repeatedly by water, the surface can easily form a hard shell. Seeds do not rise to the surface of the ground, and seedlings do not。
When seeding, pour the bottom water. That is to say, once the ground has risen, water is poured out, the soil is not muddy, and the seed of cabbage is soaked or on-demanded with a thin sheet of soil。
After this step, if the temperature is not very high, soil water conservation is good and no heavy water is used until seedlings are produced. The surface is wet enough to keep the soil around the seeds wet, in the form of thin fog canteens and water spills, in case of continuous broad weather。
It's not like the water is pouring on the surface. The heavy water, the erosion of the lids, the exposure of the seeds, and the tan of the sun, were accompanied by the formation of mixed seedlings, some of which had sprouts and others buried in the soil。
It's fresh. It's a leaf
This stage is the most vulnerable time for smooze. It's just a small, breeched seed, before what you call a "crawl."。
It's when water is pouring, and it's when it's too big. Many people were running their pipes directly into the seedlings, and the mud of the seedlings was washed away and the roots were bare. Surface water flows are also particularly susceptible to sudden onset of disease if they are accumulated at the root of the seedlings over a long period of time. That's the part of the plume that rots and falls。
Water is given priority in the morning or evening. The water will be slowly watered as much as possible, along the ditches between the twigs, so that the water will slowly seep up and return to the tide from the bottom, rather than directly to the seedlings。
When do you need water? Grab the topsoil, it's scattered and dried. If the earth can still be held in groups, even if it looks a little white on the surface, it will not be watered for the time being。
This is a period of time when it is better to control the main roots of the seedlings than to wet the soil and dry it down a little. The water was overwatered, the roots were too lazy to go down, all floating on earth, and the seedlings were very resistant。
Three, two, four leafs, small and strong for long
It's the most dangerous part of the leaf. The growth rate of seedlings has increased significantly, and the area of leaves has grown, resulting in increased water consumption. At this point, we can no longer overcontrol the water。
A lot of vegetable farmers here are heading to another extreme: since the seedlings are growing fast and need more water, they pour back in one day. It's pouring out of the sky and the surface mud is still dry. The roots are floating in shallow soil, and the seedlings are thin and tall, and they grow. It's long, thin, light green. It is particularly weak in the latter stages of resistance, which can be easily broken in the face of wind and can be difficult to grow into。
The watering principle at this stage: see damp. The surface soil is dried up two or three centimetres before refilling the water. It will be poured out at once, and it will not be spilled more than once until the next layer is dried。
Many prefer to spill small water every evening, with their surfaces wet and wet, with water remaining only one or two centimetres above. Deep ground has been dry. The roots of the seedlings don't want to go down and stay on the surface. Once the sun goes down in the back and the surface drys quickly, the seedlings will soon suffer。
A permeation of water, resulting in sub-water seepage, leads the seedling system to proactively look down for water sources, and to more deep-seated depths before it becomes more resilient to drought。
In the case of a small garden, it is important that in the event of a rainy day, the drains be routed in a timely manner. There is no water in the gutter. After the rain, the ground was watered and not immediately re-watered. The soil is wet enough after the rain, and the most important at this time is pine graft. The surface sheeting of the earth is opened lightly, increasing the soil's air intake and preventing strangulation. It is also a great loss to be able to row this step, where friends with a wide variety of dishes simply omit to water. In the old saying, “hoards are watering” and turpentines can be cut off from the plumes of the surface, lock the tides in the soil, reduce the evaporation of water and reduce the frequency of frequent watering。
Iv. Elements for pleasing after transfer
A number of people are now raising their seedlings, either on a nursery or on a nursery, growing to 3-4 leafs before moving to the daejeon garden. There is a different set of rules for the watering of planted cabbage。
When you move, the water must be filled. Once the plant has been completed, the water will be watered once again, so that the roots of the soil and the seedlings will be so close as to remove the gaps around the roots. This time, the water is essential。
However, after watering the water, many feared that the seedlings would dry up and refill the water for two or three days. The soil has been wet and the new white roots have grown flat. The three to seven days after the planting, as long as the soil keeps the tide. Once the water has been watered, it will not be repeated during the sapling period if it is comfortable。
The completion of the seedlings and the re-emergence of the seedlings and the emergence of new leaves indicate that new roots have been created. Once the seedlings are over, they are then transferred to normal dry-seed wet-water management. Do not pursue any fertilizer until new leaves have been removed. At this point, the roots have not recovered and fertilization is very easy to burn。
Three: five of the most likely mistakes of watering the seed season, most of the cabbies. Pass
We're going to do this in stages, and then we're going to fix the most common waterfalls for your daily vegetables. This is where the root causes are when many vegetable gardens are poorly grown。
Zone 1: when you see the leaves scrambling at noon, water immediately
A brief mention of physiological atrophy was made earlier. At noontime high temperatures and strong light, even if there is no shortage of water in the soil, strong sunlight is evaporated and the evaporation rate of the leaves is greater than that of the root system, so that the seedlings may temporarily pull the leaves. And when the sun sets, and the temperature comes down in the evening, the leaves rise again。
In such cases, it is important not to pour cold water at noon. At noon, high temperatures of ground soil are pouring into the cold water, the temperature of the soil is plummeting, the seedlings are irritated and their activity is directly reduced. If the seedlings remain aging after the evening and have not recovered, it represents a real shortage of water, which can then be arranged for。
The watering is given priority in the mornings before and after the sun comes out, followed by the sunset. It's high noon, and it's not going to water。
Zone 2: small and multiple daily water spills, only wetland surfaces, and deep ground is dry
This mistake was committed most by friends of the family garden and the roof garden. Fearing of flooding, the water canteens were spilled every day on top of a layer, and only one to two centimetres of top soil were wet. The layer below has been dry。
The roots of the seedlings are used to remaining on the moist surface and are not deep down. All become floating roots. Just stop for two or three days without spilling water, dry the topsoil and squirm all over it. The seedlings became less resistant to drought and flooding。
The water would be less frequent, and each time it would be watered as much as possible, so that the water would permeate and lead to the root to thaw。
Mistake three: fear of rotten roots, running water all the time, running low water, severe drought
Some friends have heard that cabbage sprouts are used to control water. So it's a misperception that water has been withheld from the seedlings, leaving the soil dry. Sapko has long been in the grip of drought。
The seedlings are chronically short of water, their growth is directly stagnant, their leaves are small and their plants are small and old. It's hard to recover even if you water it in the back. Once shizumi freezes, and how it will be managed later, it will have a huge impact on her heart。
Crawling does not mean no water. Scavengers, when the soil base is sound, are properly stretched to allow the surface soil to dry slightly, forcing the roots down. It's not like it's dry. If the earth is already fully dry, it must be filled with water and must not carry drought。
Here's an explanation of the cabbage that you've heard so much about. A lot of people don't know when to do it. Scavengers are generally in the late stages of the scavenger season, 4 to 6 scavengers, and have not yet reached the moderate scavengers before they flourish. The sapling stage cannot be forced. Weak seedlings cannot withstand drought。
Zone four: big water pouring, puddles, long-term saplings
Daejeon grows vegetables, many of which are directly watered. The water remained on the surface for a long time and the base of the seedlings remained in the mud. It's a high-moisture environment. I don't care. I'm gonna fall in。
Water is being poured as much as possible. The water is pouring into the gutter so it can slowly seep up. Don't let the water flood the roots of the seedlings. The first time after the rain, the drains were removed and the water was discharged in time。
We're in the middle of nowhere
Many friends are accustomed to pouring out urea while the soil is wet, or pouring in the fertilizer directly with the water. The roots of the seedlings are very young and the fertilizer concentrations are slightly higher and burn directly。
If it is true that a seedling is weak and needs to be fed, it must wait for the seedling to grow to four leafs. Fertilizers are diluted as much as possible, with a small amount of fat. Precedence of thin, decomposed organic fertilizers for the seed season must be reduced and not thicker. And when the water's done and the soil is saturated, don't go after fat。
Iv. Accompanying field management, water and soil, and fat, in addition to watering the seed season
It is not enough to water it right. Water, soil, pine soil, weeding, seedlings are all associated. Many water-water management is in place, but the others are neglected and the seedlings are still poorly grown。
The first thing is sumi. The sprouts are so dense that if the seedlings are squeezed together, the seedlings and the seedlings cover each other and the ventilation changes. No matter how water is poured, it's easy to grow. In two minutes. For the first time, a small and weak seed had been pulled out of a single leaf; for the second time, when three and four leaves had been uprooted, the last seeded. Ensure that there is sufficient space and ventilation between each seedling. After the sapling, the ground will leave a small gap in the pit, at which point a small amount of water can be filled to allow the surrounding soil to fall back to cover the remaining roots of the seedling。
And the second thing is the pine earth. After watering, or having rained, the surface wind is easily clogged. The soil is hard, the air cannot go into the earth and the roots are blocked. At this point, take the little crotch head down to the surface. Be careful not to be too deep, but to have two to three centimetres deep enough to hurt the shallow roots of the seedling. Scratches break one side of the knot and are protected by air; they also remove newly grown grass. The frequent pine-earth gardens can, on the contrary, be significantly reduced。
The third thing is, prevention of the disease in the nursery. Large wetting of the seed season is most likely to occur. The soil should not be wet for long periods of time except for control of water. If it is discovered that there are already individual seedlings on the ground, first of all, the water will be reduced immediately, the ventilation will be enhanced and the medication will not be used blindly. First, we remove the sick seedlings from the vegetable garden to avoid further spread。
Many families grow, and it is not recommended that all kinds of medication be used frequently. Priority is given to improving environmental conditions and reducing the incidence of diseases through water control, pine soil and increased ventilation. Precedence for disease prevention rests on management rather than exclusively on pesticides。
Fourth thing, sunshielding auxiliary management. If the cabbage is broadcast in the autumn, the planting takes place at an early age and is subject to continuous high temperatures. Strong light plus high temperature allows soil moisture to evaporate quickly. Even if you do it more often, the ground is still easily dry. This situation will not solve the whole problem simply by pouring water. Conditional short-term, simple sun cover, lower surface temperature, reduced water evaporation consumption and reduced heat burns on seedlings。
V. Family vehicle, hospital playing sources, with special attention
Many city friends, such as flower pots, foam boxes, grow cabbage at home, and the ground garden is different。
The total amount of soil in the pellets is small and thin. Water conservation is far less effective than on the ground. Water will dry much faster. But it is also taboo to spill water every day。
It's the same way to measure the humidity. After the surface was dryed down two or three centimetres, the water was poured in one-off, until the discharge hole in the bottom was released. Don't just get wet on top of it。
The bottom drain of the flower basin must be clear and unblocked. We need to be able to get out of here. If water accumulates in the tray, after a while, the water stored in the tray will fall. It's very easy to rot。
The ventilation conditions on the balcony are uneven. There is a poor ventilation inside the closed balcony, where the pottery is dry slowly, and the water-water interval is stretched; the roof of the open building is large, the water is volatile and the water-water interval is reduced appropriately. Do not replicate other water-watering days. Each household has a different environment and does not have a standard answer for a fixed number of days. The best basis for watering is always soil moisture, not rigid days。
Whether it be daejeon or a family plant, it is important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all formula such as “water every three days”. Temperatures, rain or not, and soil sands are still sticky, all change the frequency of watering. The sandy soil is leaky and poorly protected, and the water is distributed at shorter intervals; the slimy yellow soil is so strong that it must be stretched and less watered to prevent the water from strangulation。
At the end of the day, when the seedlings take root, the late cabbage grows. Minoru
Many of our friends who grow vegetables tend to focus on the management of fertilizers at the later stage of the lotus and the condensed stage. The first time, the first time, was ignored。
The core task of the cabbage season is not to allow leaves to grow up fast, but to nurture well-developed roots. The roots have grown, the fattening of the water has become stronger, the seedlings are naturally strong and resistant to disease, and then the lotus sea grows and is covered in water。
The watering looks like a simple one to add water to the soil. Actually, it's controlling the environment where the roots grow. The water is being poured wrongly, either suffocated or blistering; the water is properly controlled, leading the seedlings down to the root, with additional side roots. Even after short periods of drought or cooling, the seedlings are sufficiently resilient。
A brief review of the key points of watering during the seeding season:
The seedlings are soaked with bottom water and produce seedlings that minimize the amount of water to wash out; thin water is damp during the fragile stages of the leaves and the head is rushing; two to four saplings are wet at once, and small amounts of water are pouring out every day; after the plantings are pumped up, the water is filled with water and no more water is recharged during the break-off; the water is watered as early as possible in the morning or evening as possible, and at high noon temperatures are not watered; and the water is drained in time to protect the pine earth。
A friend who has planted cabbage can now stop in time to adjust the watering rhythm to the pine soil if the previous watering habits have been wrong. As long as extensive decomposition of the roots is not in place and soil moisture is improved, seedlings can continue to grow into strong seedlings。
Growing vegetables is in itself a process of doing one thing at a time, and no one understands it all at first. The most practical technique is to find out the nature of the soil in their own plots, to find out how the seedlings grow, to learn to grab a piece of dirt for moisture, without replicating the number of watering days on the internet。
