Can wheat be planted after beginning of winter? I come from Dingzhou. Can I plant wheat after winter?

The coming solar term "beginning of winter" means that the earth is about to freeze, and crops begin to enter the wintering period. Today, a friend left a message asking, can wheat be planted after winter begins? If wheat is planted in early winter, will it germinate? Will the final output drop?

Seeing this problem, the first reaction of the helper is that it is too late to plant. The best sowing date of wheat is around the cold dew solar term, one month later than beginning of winter. Under normal circumstances, wheat has emerged, and some have begun to tiller. However, it is still unknown whether it can emerge after sowing wheat in early winter.

From the temperature point of view, the temperature of wheat sowing is between 15-20 degrees, while the temperature of faster germination is between 20-25 degrees (a temperature range in relative cases). At the beginning of the winter solar term, the current temperature is not conducive to sowing and germination. In Henan, a large-scale cooling weather began to appear two days before winter, with wind and rain of 20.

However, with the increase of temperature at noon during the day, some wheat will germinate and emerge slowly, but it will grow slowly and basically will not tiller. After the new year, a series of measures such as watering, fertilization, weeding and pest control will be taken, and the final yield will not be very high.

Seeing this, the problem is coming. Under the output of more than one thousand kilograms of wheat, one acre of land can earn four or five hundred profits. If you spend the same cost, the output is only five or six hundred kilograms, and the final result will definitely be a loss. So, if it were you, would you take the risk?

Obviously, most of my friends won't do such a thing. In fact, not many growers choose to sow wheat after the start of winter. Some people may ask, for some special reasons, the farmland is still empty. What if we don't grow wheat?

It is suggested that spring sowing crops, such as garlic and corn, can be planted until next spring. We can grow wheat if we like. Friends in many areas can also grow spring wheat or some vegetables. In the second year, it was still too late to plant winter wheat.

What I said above applies to most areas. Why can't I say all of them? For example, in some places in the south, such as Hainan and Guangxi, the temperature is much higher than that in the north. At the beginning, it was said that wheat could be sown and germinated between 15-25 degrees, and the temperature in these places could not be reached until after beginning of winter, so it was possible to sow, and the yield would not be reduced because of this.

To sum up, wheat can be planted after beginning of winter, but it is not recommended to do so, which will affect the yield. However, in some areas in the south, the temperature is relatively high and it can be planted.
