How to grow broad beans? It is understood that broad beans are one of the earliest cultivated bean crops. Many provinces in China can be planted, originating from the Mediterranean coast of Europe and the southwestern part of Asia to North Africa. Today, Huinong.com will bring you a high-yield cultivation method for broad beans.

First, the growth process of broad beans

Germination and emergence

When the radicle of the broad bean breaks through the seed coat and the shoots reach two to three centimeters above the ground, it is the germination and emergence stage. The germination and emergence period of the broad bean is generally about 11 days to 30 days.

2. Seedling growth period

The seedling growth period of broad bean is generally more than 90 days. This period is the process in which the main stem is continuously elongated and the branches are continuously formed.

3. The current bud branching period

The bud branching period of broad bean is generally about 35 to 40 days, and vegetative growth and reproductive growth will be carried out simultaneously.

4. Flowering pod stage

The flowering and pod-forming period of broad bean is usually about 60 to 65 days, and about seven days from the end of flowering and flowering, it is the stage of rapid growth of nutrients and a large number of flowering and pod formation during the production of broad bean.

5. Seed maturity

This stage is generally around ten to twenty days.

Second, the planting method

1. Seed selection, sowing

The selection of broad bean seeds must choose high-quality varieties with high disease resistance. Before sowing, the land should be deep digging and ploughing, etc., in order to make the soil soft and convenient for the growth of broad beans.

2. Seedling management

The seedlings of broad bean should always pay attention to the seedlings. After sowing, it can be covered with soil, and then covered with straw to maintain the humidity of the soil. In the middle of the growth of broad beans, pests and diseases should be done well, and the plants that are affected should be treated in time.

3. Topdressing, watering

After sowing, timely watering is very important, and the clods should be compacted to prevent the occurrence of lodging. When the broad bean grows out of the young leaves, it can be applied to some quick-acting nitrogen fertilizer. In the middle of the growth period of the broad bean, the potassium fertilizer and the phosphate fertilizer can be added at different points in time. In the pod-forming period of broad beans, some trace elements should be applied in order to achieve high yield and reduce the occurrence of falling flowers.

4. Interplanting, pruning

After the emergence of broad bean, it is necessary to check whether there is a shortage of seedlings, and if there is any need to replant immediately. It is often necessary to cultivate weeding. During the flowering period of the broad bean plants, attention should be paid to the branching of the seedlings. Branching will result in difficulty in pod formation, and the excess branches should be removed.

5. Harvesting

When harvesting broad beans, it is generally best to take them in batches, from bottom to top, once a week. When the leaves are about to fall, the middle and lower parts of the pods can be picked.

The above is the whole content of high-yield planting points of broad beans. Farmers who have planted broad beans at home can learn more and understand more. If you have better guidance experience, welcome!
