Plant sand ginger at the Spring Equinox or Qingming Festival. If the time is too late, germination will be affected. Use soft, water-repellent soil and add a little base fertilizer. Loosen the soil before planting to avoid hardening of the soil and preventing seedlings from growing. Select mature seeds of suitable size and place them in the sun for two days to germinate. Then plant the seeds with the bud eyes facing both sides and cover them with fine soil. Then keep it in a dry environment and wait for it to germinate.

1. Planting time

1. Planting time

Sajiang is generally sown in spring, usually around the vernal equinox or Qingming Festival. The time should not be later than the beginning of summer, otherwise the high temperature will affect the germination of the seeds and may cause them to rot due to diseases and insect pests.

2. Select the land

Sand ginger is suitable for growing in soft and water-repellent soil. It is relatively drought tolerant and barren, so it does not require much soil fertility. If there is a certain amount of base fertilizer in the soil, it will also be beneficial to its growth. The soil should not be too hard, otherwise it will affect the germination of the seeds. Before planting, you can loosen the soil and break up or throw away large clods.

3. Select seeds and sow them

Choose sand ginger seeds that are of suitable size and have a relatively firm texture. Such seeds are more mature and have a higher germination rate. The seeds should be sun-dried for a week after harvesting, and can also be sun-dried for 1-2 days before sowing, which can effectively induce germination. Plant the buds of sand ginger facing both sides and cover them with fine soil. If planted in large areas, the density should not be too high and can be arranged in a Z-shaped arrangement.

Four. Follow-up maintenance

For To ensure normal growth of seeds, moderate watering and fertilization are essential. Since it is afraid of getting wet, water it only when it is relatively dry. If the pot soil is too damp, ventilation is needed to speed up water evaporation. The seedlings are susceptible to disease during the seedling stage, so you can apply a little compound fertilizer, but the amount of fertilizer should not be too much to prevent the roots from being burned. When autumn enters the growth period, you can apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and less nitrogen fertilizer.
