The cultivation of botanical spices
This article by Jiangxi Cedar Natural Medicinal Oil Co., Ltd. to take you to understand the planting of botanical spices。
Because the collection of wild plants is very restricted by seasonal, climate and other factors，The harvest was limited，Production is also erratic;moreover，Plants and animals that produce precious spices (agarwood, sandalwood, musk) have mostly been over-harvested，Today it has become an endangered species，Therefore, the production of most natural raw materials is mainly dependent on artificial cultivation。To ensure the quality of artificial cultivation of spices, we need to pay attention to many factors。The first is the variety factor: the same plant is often divided into different subspecies, and the traits of each subspecies are often very different。

Water and soil natural environment: natural factors such as water, temperature, light, soil, air and surrounding plant communities in the plant growth area, namely "water and soil" and "feng shui" factors, will directly affect the quality of plants。
Maturity cycle: The length of time between breeding and picking is an important factor。For some spices, the longer the "gestate", the higher the quality, such as agarwood, whose "three year fragrance" is almost three times the price of "one year fragrance"。Since the planting of lavender, about the third year is the maturity period, the best oil quality, beyond this stage after its quality will also decline。
Cultivation methods: In this regard, cultivation methods and cultivation experience are important factors, but more important is the degree of industrial pollution。Chemical fertilizers, chemical pesticides, and air pollution can directly lead to a decrease in the quality of spices。In some underdeveloped countries, chemical fertilizers are rarely used because they are even more expensive than natural fertilizers, which makes the spices they produce better quality。
The parts taken: different parts of the plant, such as roots, stems, branches, leaves, flowers, fruits and so on, the content of aromatic components is different, such as sandalwood, the closer to the root and the heart of the tree, the higher the oil content。
When to take: The same plant is picked in different weather, at different times, and at different growth stages, and its aromatic components will be different。From the point of view of TCM, this is a very important factor, which not only affects the medicinal power of spices, but even changes the medicinal properties of spices。
