Cultivation and Conservation of Chinese Medicinal HerbsThe cultivation and maintenance of Chinese medicinal herbs needed to pay attention to the following aspects:
* * 1. Planting **
1. * * Choose a place **
- Most medicinal plants were suitable to grow on loam soil with good soil structure, loose and fertile soil, neutral ph value, and good drainage. However, different medicinal herbs had special requirements, such as ginseng, coptis, etc., which were suitable for forest humus soil rich in humus; Bai Zhu, Fritillaria, Cassia, gardenia, etc., preferred acidic or slightly acidic soil; Wolfberry, licorice, Glehnia littorum, etc., preferred alkali-like soil; Vitex, Glehnia littorum, etc. could grow on riverside beaches. Before planting, the soil should be plowed, raked and leveled, and then ridged or ridged. Deep ploughing could increase the yield, especially for deep-rooted medicinal herbs such as coshen pilose asiabell root, Angelica dahurica, and Aranthes bidentata. Deep ploughing combined with sufficient organic fertilizer could improve the physical properties of the soil, accelerate the soil ripening, and increase fertility. The method of ridging varied according to the growth characteristics of plants, regions, and topography.
- There were also medicinal herbs suitable for different types of land. For example, barren mountains were suitable for planting Kudzu Root, Wild Chrysanthemum, Tongue Tongue Root, Forsythia, Wild Ziziander, and so on.
2. * * Seed Selection **
- He had to choose high-quality seeds to increase the rate of seedling emergence. For example, the seeds of Platycorum grandiflorum should be fresh in color and smooth to the touch. When selecting, the seeds can be soaked in warm water for 10 hours, then wrapped in a wet cloth after fishing out. The humidity should be maintained at 20 - 25 degrees Celsius, and the seeds can germinate in about 4 - 6 days. The selection of Angelica dahurica seeds was special. Pure seeds, dried or dried new seeds, one year old and three years old seeds could not be used. Only two years old new seeds could be used.
3. * * Planting depth **
- The depth of sowing varied from two times or several times the diameter of the seed. It could be determined according to the size of the seed, such as one-third or two-thirds of the first knuckle of the index finger. Most of the seeds could sprout in 10 days to half a month when the ground temperature was suitable and there was sufficient water, such as Ageratops, scutellaria, licorice, etc. Some seeds needed to be stored in sand, so they would sprout slower, such as Belamcanda.
* * 2. Care **
1. * * Field Management **
- The seedlings should be thinned out in time and the strong seedlings should be kept to ensure that the seedlings were whole and strong. Starting from June, the management of inter-cultivation and weeding should be done to reduce nutrient consumption and reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases.
2. * * Water and fertilizer management **
- According to the growth of the medicinal herbs and the quality of the soil, they should be applied with topdressing and irrigation in time. The first topdressing was carried out when the seedlings began to grow in spring, and the topdressing was applied 2 - 3 times during the vigorous growth period of the Chinese medicinal herbs from June to August, and the topdressing was applied with phosphorus and potash fertilizers in early October.
