Soil: fertile soil should be used for cultivating mustard tuber; watering: the soil should be kept moist for a long time during the growing period, so it needs to be watered frequently, usually once or twice a week; fertilization: the fertilizer should be applied twice in the growing period in total, once a light fertilizer should be applied within half a month after planting, and once a top dressing should be applied in the later growing period, that is, two months later; illumination : mustard tuber likes light. The light time should not be less than five hours every day.

I. maintenance method

1. Soil: it doesn't have high requirements for soil. General soil can be cultured. In order to avoid the lack of nutrients in newly planted plants, it is necessary to apply base fertilizer to soil before planting.

2. Watering: it consumes a lot of water during its growth period. If the rain is good, it doesn't need watering. If the rain is not good and the soil is in a dry state for a long time, it needs to be watered manually, generally once every three days or so. After each fertilization, also need to water a time, the purpose is to make fertilizer can be fully dissolved in the soil, convenient for plant absorption.

3. Fertilization: for mustard tuber planted in spring, fertilization is required twice a year. The first drop is before the end of the lunar calendar, i.e. around January. The fertilizer seed can choose to use uremic toxin or superphosphate, or both. After fertilization, water it once; the second fertilization is at the equinox, urea and potassium chloride can be used for the fertilizer seed. If it's rainy days and the ground is wet, water is not needed. If the soil is dry If it's dry, it needs watering to increase the fertilizer effect.

4. Illumination: it has a large demand for illumination. If there is any condition, it can receive sunshine all day. If there is no condition for sunshine all day, the illumination time of every day should be at least five hours.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Propagation: it can be propagated by sowing. The first step is to soak the mustard seed in water for five minutes, pull out the drained water, spray and spray disinfectant water; the second step is to spread the seed on the seedbed, cover it with soil, and then cover it with a layer of straw; the last step is to pour enough water, and wait for it to germinate.

2. Interplanting: because it is sowing, when the seedlings grow out, the seedlings with poor growth need to be pulled out, so as to avoid competing for conservation resources with healthy seedlings, and also avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption.

3. Problem diagnosis

1. Insect pest: aphids are the main pests that transmit pathogens. In the early stage after planting, it is the best time to control aphids. Aphid louling can be used for spraying control.

2. Disease: if the plant is hollow, it means that the harvest is too late, and the next harvest needs to be earlier, the hollow problem will not occur.

4. Other issues

1. Edible: it is edible.

2. Is it suitable for family planting? It can be planted at home.
