After applying the base fertilizer, fine tillage and fine harrow, so that the upper deficiency and the lower solid, the land level. Base fertilizer is mainly manure, more base fertilizer is beneficial to improve ground temperature and keep soil moisture. Encourage the seeds to absorb water and germinate. Mix with 50% phoxiphos emulsion 6.0~7.5L/hm2 and 45kg fine soil, evenly remove on the surface before tilting, bury in the soil to eliminate underground pests during preparation, the bed surface should be leveled.
Niu Zhen Zi seeds usually mature in November ~ December. When the seeds mature, they are often waxy white powder, so it is necessary to timely harvest, and choose trees with strong strength, good posture and strong resistance as the mother tree. The ear can be clipped with high branches, and the fruit can be swept down. The fruit can be immersed in water for 5~7 days, rubbed off the peel, washed and dried in the shade. Two wet sand and one seed can be used for wet storage, late March to early April of the following spring. Soak the seeds in hot water and let them wet for 4~5 days after they are taken out.
Winter sowing before freezing, generally do not need to promote germination. Spring sowing is carried out after thawing, and the effect of spurting is remarkable. In order to break the dormancy of privet seeds, the seeds were soaked with 550mg/kg gibberellin solution for 48h before sowing, water was changed once a day, and then dried. After 3 to 5 days, the buds were immersed in water at 25 to 30℃, and the water was changed every day. Seeding seedlings are sown from early to mid-March to April. Before sowing, the peeled seeds were soaked in warm water for 1 day. The spacing of rows was 20cm and the soil thickness was 1.5-2.0cm. The seeding capacity is about 105kg/hm2. Privet seedling emergence time is longer, about 1 month. After sowing, it is best to cover the soil surface with grass to conserve soil moisture.

After the seedlings are unearthed, the soil should be loosened and weeded in time, and the seedlings should be thinned. The height of annual seedlings can reach 50cm according to conventional management. Privet is a plant that likes dampness, but too much water is easy to cause disease. We must strictly control the water and spray water every day to meet the needs of the growth environment of privet. Water spraying can be carried out by sprinkler irrigation facilities, which can not only ensure the area of water distribution, maintain the ground humidity well, but also reasonably control the water not to excess. The best choice of water spraying time is 8:00 ~ 10:00 every day, or 16:00 ~ 18:00, the seedlings are afraid of waterlogging, should pay attention to drainage. Privet grows at seedling stage without much fertilizer. As long as the application of foliar fertilizer is appropriate, water-soluble fertilizer can be used, and 2kg of water per 5g is prepared for spraying. The best time is from 16:00 to 18:00, and the standard is to completely spray the blade l times. Do this once every 15 days.
When the light is particularly strong. Sunshade net should be used to avoid high temperature brought by strong light, which will affect the growth rate of the seedlings. Weeding is usually done once a month, and care should be taken to avoid damaging the roots of the plant. Plants at seedling stage are vulnerable to aphids. For aphids, the main prevention is to spray with 800 times of dimethoate solution. The time can be selected after 8:00 ~ 10:00 or 16:00, and the dosage is to spray the leaves completely once.
