For seeding, plant the seeds in a tray that is filled with rice husk ash. Leave for 45 days and move the sprouts to the nursery bags. After 60 days, transplant seedlings to the outdoor plot. Make sure to get the plot ready for planting by using a tractor to open the soil horizon first. The best time to start planting Pueraria Mirifica is in April.
The planting can be in the tied ridges or plain land, depending on the plot zone whether it is in the lowland or upland. The most proper soil for planting is loam or sandy loam. Also, the watering system must be controlled well to avoid flooding problems.
Pueraria Mirifica is a climbing plant so it’s important to imitate this climbing feature when cultivating. This will allow it to grow perfectly and produce more leaves which are necessary for better photosynthesis. Also, this will help it store more Phytoestrogens.
To cultivate, agriculturists should dig small holes approximately 20×20 cm deep for each plant with equal spacing, and water properly before covering it with plastic. Then transfer the root grafting to the plot, and cover it up with straw or hay to maintain hydration and protect the young plant from the sun.
Pueraria Mirifica is easy to cultivate as there is no insect bothering this kind of herb. When it is grown enough, support it with the trellis so it can climb up to get the sunlight. The height of the trellis should be around 1.5 meters, at the level within reach to the top of the plant. By doing this, it will be easy for taking care of the plant.
It normally takes around 3 years before the Pueraria Mirifica can be harvested. So, if Pueraria Mirifica is cultivated for business, the excavator is a better option for a faster and more comfortable harvesting method. This will also make the soil ready for the next planting. After being harvested, Pueraria Mirifica should be cleaned up. The good quality tuber will sink in water. Then slice the tuber and leave it dry under the sunlight for 2-3 days. After it’s completely dry, pack it in a sealed plastic bag.
