How to plant celery, when to plant celery and how to manage celery?

Celery can be planted in spring and autumn. Spring is usually in late March, and autumn is in the middle and late July. Direct seeding or seedling transplanting can be used. If protected land facilities are used, it can be planted all year round.

The seed skin of celery is thick and hard, contains oil glands, is not easy to absorb water, and germinates slowly and unevenly. It is necessary to soak the seeds for 12~ 14 hours, then gently rub off the old skin, put it at 20℃ to accelerate germination for 4~6 days, and sow after exposure. The seedbed should be a cool, convenient irrigation and drainage, deep-ploughed and dry plot. In the configuration of seedbed soil, fertile pastoral soil and decomposed manure are screened according to the ratio of 4∶6, and then fully mixed, and the seedbed soil is disinfected with carbendazim and thiram wettable powder (the effect is better if it is used for more than 10 days). Spread the bed soil into the seedbed with a thickness of 10 cm. When sowing, water the soles of the feet first, cover with 1 layer of bed soil after seepage, spread the seeds evenly on the bed surface, and then cover with 0.5 cm of bed soil. Plant 75 grams per 667 square meters. Covering the double-layer shed with plastic film sown in spring, and removing the plastic film after emergence; Sowing in summer should be cooled, moisturized and rainproof with sunshade net or shade shed. When there are 5~6 real leaves, they can be planted in the field. If direct seeding cultivation is adopted, seedlings should be thinned at seedling stage.
