Cistanche deserticola, also known as Da Yun, has very good effects in preventing aging and promoting metabolism. Can Cistanche deserticola, which has such high medicinal value, be grown by oneself? Such good things are actually not easy to grow. Here are some tips on planting to help us manage them better.

Select a location

First of all, you must choose the location where they will survive in the future. This is the minimum condition to ensure. I wonder if you know that they are sand plants and do not need much water, so try to choose an area with more sunshine and not much rainfall. At the same time, you should also like to drain more water when it rains. If you have the conditions, it is best to choose a hilly area. The temperature in this location varies greatly between day and night, similar to their most primitive growing environment.

Inoculation method

They are parasitic For sexual seed plants, the most suitable host should be selected, such as tamarisk and Haloxylon ammodendron. But be careful to choose tamarisk plants that are more than two or three years old. If you choose to plant tamarisk yourself, the best spacing is 1.5m and the row spacing is about 3m. The time for inoculation basically starts in spring and autumn. The temperatures in these two seasons are very suitable for their growth. At this time, you need to wait patiently. It may take four years at the slowest to be unearthed. But if it’s quick, two years is possible.

Management after planting

Most At the beginning, you can give some water appropriately, but not too much. This will not only ensure their normal growth, but also prevent them from being unable to survive due to too much water. One thing you must pay attention to is that fertilizers cannot be chosen with chemical ingredients. This way their wild quality can be maintained.

Disease Control

If they are sick , the most likely cause is powdery mildew, which may damage the roots in the seedling stage and affect the development of the entire plant; the second most likely cause is root rot. If these two situations occur, professional reagents can be used to spray and kill them.

Okay, I have seen their complicated planting methods. Few people will try to grow this kind of plant, but if your conditions are just right, you might as well try it, maybe you will have a good harvest.
