Once the land has been cleared and leveled, it must be rolled and fully irrigated to allow the soil to settle naturally. After two or three days it must be leveled again before planting.
Planting can be done at any time except when the ground is frozen in winter and during the season of high temperatures and humidity in summer. The best period extends from the beginning of March to mid-May; from mid-September to early November. It is best to use small plants for spring plantings, and large plants can be planted in divisions in fall. When dividing plants, make sure the newly divided plants have hair roots, allowing the roots to stretch naturally into the planting hole. Otherwise, the survival rate is low. The planting depth is slightly deeper than the original sowing by 1-2 cm. After planting it must be compacted and filled with fixing waterroots. Rooting water should be poured carefully to completely combine the root system with the soil. This is the key to survival.
The planting density requirement is not strict and can be determined based on the time required to establish a level surface. Generally, if it takes 2 months to build a ping, 16 pillars can be planted per square meter; if it takes 3 months to build a ping, 9 pillars can be planted per square meter. If used for breeding, the density can be increased. The ground cover Dianthus is both resistant to drought and sterility. The frequency of watering should be determined based on soil moisture. In the event of a long period of drought and without rain, the frequency of watering should be increased. Generally speaking, watering should be done three times a year: the first time. at greening, and at the beginning of spring, when the dianthus plants comare just starting to grow. Water once when they turn green; , it must be watered once; the third time it is frozen water, towards the end of November water containing frozen water is used to benefit from safe wintering.
Newly planted seedlings should pay special attention to the first watering. They should be watered abundantly, then 3-5 days later watering will be added 1-2 times depending on weather conditions and soil.
In general, top dressing should be combined with watering. Before watering, spread a multi-element granular compound fertilizer once, at 10 to 15 kilograms per acre, then water again.
Particular attention should be paid to drainage during the rainy season in summer. After heavy rains, if the accumulated water is not drained in time, a large number of plants will die after being flooded for two days. The Dianthus is generally not watered in summer.
