Seed coating mixture makes it possible to increase the yield in the way of preventing damage from disease and insect, improving the nutritive conditions and economizing on seed and labor during the period of budding and early growing season, thus now being favored by people in production practice.
We focused on the influence over budding, early growing and yield to verify the application effect of seed coating mixture on cultivating the major brassicaceous vegetable crops.
Seed coating mixture used in the experiment film former(urea resins), active ingredient, 0.1% of diatomite, humectants and 0.3~0.5% of pink dye.
Basic trial aimed to identify the influences of seed coating mixture over budding of seeds of major brassicaceous vegetable crops.
We conducted a field trial: small field trial, medium field trial and wide field trial.
In the treatment plot, irrespective of crops, it had a stronger germinability and higher rate of germination, compared to the control plot, while it had a low infection rate of mold.
The early growth was accelerated and the amount of growth was increased by seed coating mixture.
Every item including the number of leaves and roots, leaf area and the length of roots for the treatment plot was high compared to the control plot.
This shows that the growth has been accelerated at the stage of germination and seeding thanks to the coating mixture.
The yield in the treatment control increased by 30% for Chinese cabbage and 25% for cabbage compared to the control plot.
Coating mixture for the seeds of major brassicaceous vegetable crops enables seeds to strengthen the germinability, increase the germination rate and accelerate the early growth, thus having a good effect during the whole growing season, which leads to 121~130% of yield.
