Cultivation techniques of cypress;
Planting: Phellodendron amurense seedlings can be planted for 1 ~ 2 years, and the seedling height can reach 35 ~ 70cm. The planting time can be from autumn after defoliation to spring before germination. When digging seedlings, it is necessary to damage the root system as little as possible and dig with soil. Choose a place with fertile and moist soil. According to the size of seedlings, the digging diameter is 0. 5- 1 m hole, apply manure 5- 10 kg as base fertilizer to each hole, mix it with topsoil, plant a seedling in each hole, and fill it until it is flat after loading.
Seed propagation: Seedlings can be sown in autumn and spring. Sow in autumn from the end of 5438+ 10 to before freezing, and emerge in the spring of the following year. Spring sowing is from late April to early May, so sowing should be done sooner rather than later, otherwise seedling emergence will be late, and seedling growth will be poor in high temperature season. The sowing amount per mu is 2 to 3 grains. 5 kg, after sowing, cover the seeds with fine soil with a thickness of 1. 5 to 3 cm, slightly press, water and cover with a layer of grass.
Harvesting and processing of cypress;
Phellodendron amurense can be harvested 7-8 years after planting. The harvest should be carried out in May-June, when the plants are full of water and mucus, and are easy to peel. First, cut down the tree and girdle the bark according to the length of 60 cm. Peel off bark, branch bark and root bark in turn. The thicker the trunk, the better the quality of bark.
You can also cut off the bark of the living tree for half a week without cutting the tree, so that the tree can continue to grow, that is, cut off the trunk of 60 cm long from top to bottom for half a week, and then cut off the bark on both sides vertically. Don't peel the other half until the bark grows. You can also gird your waist.
