It is better to choose the soil with thick soil layer, good drainage and fertile soil for cultivation of Yucai.Generally, sandy loam soil is the first choice, which can provide sufficient nutrient requirements for leaf vegetables and make them grow more vigorously.
Its root system growth is more developed, like to grow in a more humid environment, when the soil layer is dry, irrigate as soon as possible.In peacetime irrigation should choose the morning and evening time, at noon when the temperature is too high, watering at high temperature will affect the natural growth of leaf vegetables, resulting in plant damage.
Nymphoides peltata has certain high temperature resistance, higher temperature will promote the growth of its branches and leaves, the best growth temperature is 18-25 , too low temperature will cause frostbite and affect its normal growth.
During the maintenance period, it should be kept absorbing sufficient nutrients, and the fertilizer is generally selected as base fertilizer.The time of fertilization is after stripping leaves, which can promote the formation and growth of new leaves, and also improve the yield of leaf vegetables.Be careful not to apply heavy fertilizer to the plants.
