Melon leaves and Aconitum are toxic, but they can be used as medicine and have many effects. The flowers are purple and the shape is very unique, like the "wavy heads" of the Republic of China. So what should you pay attention to when growing this plant? Let’s take a look.

Root pruning

Root pruning needs to be done twice. The first time is in April, when the seedlings should have grown four or five leaves. At the nearby location, first scrape the soil to the position of the mother root, and remove some of the grasshoppers. When the seedlings are already growing well, you can leave 2-3 grasshoppers, but when the seedlings are still small, only one can be left.

The interval between the second and the first time is not long. It should be carried out in mid-May. At this time, the soil may be removed to 13-16cm. It is also necessary to remove the newly born small grasshoppers and the roots of the previously preserved large grasshoppers, but be careful not to damage the remaining roots, otherwise their growth will be affected.

Tip

In each application of fertilizer Before, the top part had to be pinched off. After another 3-5 days, when you see axillary buds growing on the plant, take it off directly. This will ensure a certain yield.

Weeding

This kind of plant needs careful care when planting. Weeds should be pulled out immediately when you see them. In summer, everyone may think that the weather is too hot. Plants need water. Actually, it's not. This is the time when water accumulation is the worst. Once the water accumulation becomes serious, it is likely to cause the death of the entire plant.

Fertilize

Approx. When it reaches 6cm, top dressing must be carried out. At this time, organic fertilizer can be used. The time for the second top dressing is after the first root pruning, but do not apply it directly under each plant, but between two plants. The third time will naturally be done after the next root pruning.
