Conditional sprinkler irrigation or foliar water spraying can be used. (2) fertilization. According to the types and varieties of vegetables and the needs of different growth periods, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be reasonably applied to enhance the stress resistance of vegetables.
