Is it true that white dew grows onions and cold dew grows garlic?

There is a folk proverb "white dew onion, cold dew garlic, onion, ginger, garlic, do not meet." After the Millennium, it is most suitable to grow onions, but not ginger and garlic. Then why do you say that? Let's take a look together.

White dew onion cold dew garlic

As the name implies, Bailu onion is planted in Bailu period. As the saying goes, "white dew grows onions, cold dew grows garlic." The best time to plant green onions is between the Millennium and the autumnal equinox. If the seeds are sown too early, they will not be bolting until the next spring, so they are not suitable for onion seeds. If sowing is too late, on the one hand, it is because the temperature is low, the young Chinese onion seedlings are weak, it is not easy to overwinter safely, and the phenomenon of dead seedlings increases.

Let's continue to introduce the topic of this issue in depth.

Garlic is a cold-tolerant vegetable and likes cold environment. The suitable temperature for growth is between 65438 08℃ and 20℃, so cold dew sowing is the best suitable temperature. There is a saying in the countryside that "Mid-Autumn Festival is not at home, and Duanyang is not on the ground". In other words, garlic goes out to sow during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it is harvested at home during the Dragon Boat Festival, with a growth period of seven or eight months. Therefore, during the whole growth period, different products can be listed one after another according to different eating methods. For example, garlic seedlings, that is, green garlic, can be listed in March and April next year, and garlic can be harvested after May.

Seedling management of Chinese onion

Generally speaking, green onions can break through the ground about seven days after sowing. At this time, the seedling stage should be managed in time. Before the green onions grow to the leaves, it is necessary to prevent direct high-temperature and strong light, pay attention to soil drought, and spray water to moisturize in the morning and evening, but the amount of water should not be too large, and the soil should always be moist. When the scallion seedlings grow to 6-8 cm high, spraying 15% diluted human manure or about 0.3% urea per mu can promote the growth of the seedlings.

If the onion seedlings grow too closely, they should be properly spaced. As the saying goes, "deep planting onions, shallow planting garlic", the planting depth of onions is also the key. So don't use some farmyard manure in the onion field at will, because the soil depth is too thick, which is not conducive to the growth of onion seedlings. During this period, we should pay attention to keep the soil moist and water it in time when it is dry. If some weeds grow, try to be careful not to hurt onion seedlings.

Through our introduction, I believe that everyone really grows onions in white dew and garlic in cold dew. Why do you have a deeper understanding of planting onions in Bailu? Flower 68 will be constantly updated, remember to collect it if you like it, and share it by the way.
