What are the details of shallow water lotus planting?

Shallow water lotus lotus root has short leaves and is suitable for cultivation in shallow water with water depth of 15cm, while deep-water lotus root is suitable for cultivation in deep water with water depth of 0.6 ~ 1m because of its high stems and leaves and slender nodes. Lotus root originated in India and was introduced to China very early. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the cultivation of lotus root was quite common. In most people's impression, lotus root grows in a pond. Lotus leaves are everywhere in the pond, and the water layer is deep. Snow-white lotus root is rooted in the soil one or two meters deep.

First, planting shallow water lotus is not limited by topography, saving land. Because shallow water lotus is planted in cement ponds, it can be developed even if there is no dry land with pond conditions. You can even make full use of the abandoned land in the village, turn it into treasure and make rational use of it.

Second, the shallow water lotus pond is a one-time investment and durable. Although the shallow water lotus pond needs some investment, the service life of the completed lotus pond can reach more than 10 years, which is the investment and income for many years.

Third, plant shallow water lotus to save water and electricity. Because the shallow water lotus pond is made of cement, the wall and bottom of the pond are impermeable, and only three or four times of water need to be added during the whole growth period, which not only saves the water fee, but also saves the electricity fee needed for pumping water.
