The invention discloses a planting method of
uncaria rhynchophylla and relates to the technical field of Chinese herbal
medicine planting. The planting method includes the steps of: collecting seeds,
threshing and storing the seeds,
processing the seeds,
sowing the seeds,
transplanting small seedlings, performing nursery management, performing final singling of seedlings and middle-stage management, and harvesting the
uncaria rhynchophylla. In the method, the
uncaria rhynchophylla sprouts in 3-4 days after
sowing the seeds, so that the method greatly reduces the growth period than conventional
sowing methods, in which
budding period lasts for 3 months from sowing the seed in the last ten-days of March to
sprouting in the middle ten-days of June. Meanwhile, the method can enrich magnetotactic microorganisms, which are
key factors for stimulating
sprouting of seeds and reinforcing seedlings, and establish an abundant microelement substance basis, so that the plants can be normally harvested with no need for a period of 3 years. Contents of
active components, such as
rhynchophylline and isorhynchophylline, in the
uncaria rhynchophylla is not less than those in plants in a conventional planting method, even wild plants; according to the planting method, the seeds are sowed in spring and the plants are harvested in autumn in the third year, planting period lasting for about two and a half years; the method solves a problem of long planting period that the
uncaria rhynchophylla can only be normally harvested after being planted for 3 years.
