How to mix seeds for peanuts to prevent insects? How to add water to mix seeds for peanuts?

Peanut shelling and seed mixing before sowing are now very common operations, especially when the peanut planting area is relatively large, seed mixing is an essential operation. Peanut seed mixing can effectively prevent underground pests (such as the most common aphids) and diseases in the soil until the peanut germination and growth period. Let's take a look at how to mix seeds!

How to mix seeds to prevent peanuts from getting infested with insects

Before planting, dry the peanuts in the sun for 3 to 5 days, then soak the seeds in insecticide and fungicide for eight hours, then soak the seeds in carbendazim for another hour, and then plant the seeds. Pay attention to topdressing and prevention and control of diseases and pests, and then you can harvest the peanuts.

1. The best principle for seed dressing is "low concentration of poison (agent), high efficiency". When purchasing, you must go to the agricultural supply store, which is a formal channel and can well guarantee the effectiveness of the seed dressing agent. This is a basis.

2. The next step is the order of mixing the peanut seeds. First, pour in the peanut mixing agent, then add a small amount of water and stir. Next, add the peanut seed mixing fertilizer. After mixing the two evenly, put in the peanut seeds and stir.

3. When stirring, pay attention to the amount of water added, the stirring time, and the length of time after the seeds are added.

How to add water when planting peanut seeds

The first is the amount of water added. The principle of adding water to the seed dressing agent is to add as little water as possible. There is a ratio here. That is, under normal circumstances, for 50 kilograms of peanut seeds, when adding seed dressing agent, seed fertilizer and water, the total of these 3 is generally around 8 taels, or 400 grams. Be careful not to add too much water exceeding the amount I recommend, otherwise the peanuts will become wrinkled, peeled, and fall off, and the medicine will be ineffective and cannot be sown.

How long does it take to plant peanuts?

There are generally two ways to mix seeds: manual and machine. After adding the seed mixing agent, the mixing time is generally 25 seconds. This is a very short time, so everyone must pay attention.

Note that when mixing seeds with drugs, you should base it on the actual amount of peanuts you plan to sow. If the amount is small, you can mix the seeds in the first two or three days. If the amount is large, you need to do it in the first ten days to half a month. After mixing the seeds, you can directly dry them in a cool place. Avoid exposure to the sun and wet environment.

When planting peanuts, the amount of compound fertilizer (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer) is generally recommended to be around 80 to 100 kilograms per mu. As for potassium sulfate, it is recommended not to use it. Pay attention to spraying foliar fertilizer on peanuts in the middle and late stages of growth. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution can be used. Generally, a concentration of 0.2% is sufficient.
