Chestnut trees should be planted in loose and well drained soil. During their growth, they should be given sufficient light and 10-20 ℃ growth environment. After harvesting, they should be watered in time to provide the water they need. Propagation is usually done by sowing or grafting.

I. planting environment

1. Soil: to plant chestnut trees, loose and well drained soil should be used. To a certain extent, too sticky soil will affect its growth and cause root rot.

2. Watering: after harvesting, it will lose a lot of water, and it is relatively dry in autumn and winter. It is easy to suffer from drought, so water it in time to ensure the water it needs.

3. Light: during the growth of chestnut trees, they should receive sufficient light, which can promote photosynthesis. If they don't receive enough light, their yield will be affected.

4. Temperature: give it a 10-20 ℃ growth environment. If the temperature is too low in winter, it will be damaged by freezing. If the temperature is not too high in summer, it will grow badly.

2. Breeding methods

1. Sowing and propagation: the sowing is generally carried out in March to April. Before sowing, the seeds should be sterilized with methyltob body fluid, and the suitable soil should be prepared, and the seeds can be sown in.

2. Grafting propagation: grafting is generally the best in August to October. It is split 20 days before germination. After the new shoot unfolds and infusion flows, it is grafted about 20 days after germination. After grafting, it is best to tie it tightly with plastic film to reduce water evaporation.
