The qilixiang is fertilized mainly in the three growing seasons of spring, summer and autumn; When planting, a little base fertilizer can also be added in an appropriate amount. Slow release fertilizer can be used as base fertilizer, and compound fertilizer can be used as topdressing fertilizer in growth period. Topdressing needs to be based on the principle of thin fertilizer and frequent application, while slow-release fertilizer can be directly buried in the soil; It can be once a week in spring and autumn and once every 3-4 days in summer. However, attention should be paid to the suspension of fertilization in rainy days; Don't fertilize during dormancy.

1. Application of farmyard manure

1. Farm manure: If you grow peanuts at home, in order to ensure that peanuts are more green, it is best to use farm manure, that is, animal manure, including pig manure, chicken manure and so on. It should be noted that when using farm manure, you must ensure that the fertilizer is fully decomposed.

2. How to ferment: The farmyard manure is generally fermented in the way of compost, that is, the farmyard manure is piled on the ground, and a layer of soil is covered on the compost to prevent insects from laying eggs. The higher the temperature, the faster the fermentation speed. Generally, the compost can be decomposed in 3-6 months.

3. How to apply: The farmyard manure can be applied as base fertilizer and topdressing. Before planting peanuts, that is, during soil preparation, the farmyard manure can be used as base fertilizer and mixed into the soil for planting peanuts. Later, with the growth of peanuts, the farmyard fertilizer can be applied as topdressing several times.

2. Application of chemical fertilizer

1. Fertilizer: If peanuts are planted on the ground, in order to sell the peanuts, if you want to achieve the maximum yield of peanuts, it is best to use chemical fertilizers, of which the most commonly used are urea and calcium superphosphate, as fertilizers to supplement nutrients for peanuts.

2. How to apply: Before deep tillage and soil preparation, urea and calcium superphosphate are mixed into the soil to supplement nitrogen fertilizer and phosphate fertilizer for the plant, and a small amount of plant ash is mixed in by the way to compensate potassium fertilizer for the plant, and then topdressing is carried out as appropriate with the growth of the plant.
