1. What is used to sterilize the soil for breeding earthworms?To kill earthworms, it is best to use quicklime, which is also the easiest to buy and relatively cheap. 1. Disinfection and sterilization After quicklime absorbs water, it undergoes a chemical reaction and releases a large amount of heat. Therefore, after quicklime is applied to farmland and buried in the soil after deep plowing, it will absorb water, mature, and release heat, rapidly increasing the soil temperature, which can play a role in disinfection and sterilization, and reduce the occurrence of diseases in the soil. In addition, high temperature can also kill pests in the soil, achieving the effect of pest control. 2. Improve the physical and chemical properties of the soil Quicklime absorbs water to generate calcium hydroxide, an alkaline substance that can neutralize the acidity of the soil. Moreover, spreading quicklime can increase the calcium ion content in the soil. Calcium ions are a good binder for the soil, which can form soil aggregates, make the soil loose, and reduce soil compaction. Therefore, spreading quicklime can improve the physical and chemical properties of the soil, thereby achieving the effect of increasing crop yield and quality. In addition, spreading quicklime can increase the activity of soil microbial flora, improve the soil environment, improve the conditions for crop growth, and so on. 2. How to sterilize earthworm manure?If you want to maintain the effective components in the feces, you can use intermittent sterilization. If you only want to kill bacteria and don’t care about the composition of the feces, you can use direct incineration and high-pressure steam sterilization. 1. Of course, earthworm manure must be disinfected when used to grow flowers. 2. Because they usually carry germs and insect eggs, if they are not disinfected, they will affect the growth of flowers and plants. 3. The disinfection method is very simple, just expose it under strong light for a while, which is safer and more secure. 4. It is a very good organic fertilizer, containing a large amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and organic fertilizer. There is no need to add other fertilizers when using it to avoid fertilizer damage. 3. How to remove flying insects in the soil where earthworms are raised?It is quite common to see small flying insects when raising earthworms. This is usually because too much food is put in, causing it to rot inside, attracting some flies and other flying insects to lay eggs. It is almost impossible to completely eliminate them. The only way to reduce their numbers is to control their food. Each feeding must be finished within 4-5 days. Also, do not feed them dairy products, oily meat, etc., as these are more likely to attract flying insects. 4. Why do earthworms need lime?When raising earthworms, you need to spread lime because White lime is the easiest to buy and is relatively cheap. 1.

Therefore, after quicklime is applied to farmland and buried in the soil after deep plowing, it will absorb water, mature, and release heat, rapidly increasing the soil temperature, which can play a role in disinfection and sterilization, and reduce the occurrence of diseases in the soil.

Therefore, spreading quicklime can improve the physical and chemical properties of the soil, thereby achieving the effect of increasing crop yield and quality. In addition, spreading quicklime can increase the activity of soil microbial flora, improve the soil environment, improve the conditions for crop growth, and so on. 5. How to disinfect the soil for raising earthworms?Of course, earthworm manure must be sterilized before growing flowers. Because it contains insect eggs, bacteria, etc. If it is not disinfected and sterilized, and flowers and plants are directly cultivated, it will affect the growth of the plants. The sterilization method is very simple. You can mix an appropriate amount of insecticide and then place it in a high temperature environment to kill insects and sterilize. This is safer. Mixing in an appropriate amount of earthworm manure can make the soil more nutritious, with better drainage and ventilation, which is conducive to growth. 6. Can potassium permanganate solution kill earthworms?No, potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant and can also cause damage. You cannot plant flowers directly in earthworm soil. There are many microorganisms and bacteria in the soil, which are not conducive to the growth of flower roots. If you want to plant flowers with earthworm soil, you must expose it to the sun to kill the eggs in the soil. You can also soak it in potassium permanganate solution for disinfection, otherwise many earthworms will breed in the soil and damage the roots of flowers. |
