Ndi mankhwala angati omwe apanga kuti azikhala ndi zibwenzi, asayansi, ndi mafuta angati osiyana ndi mavitamini, mapiritsi ndi ufa wowonekera, ndipo munthu amafika ku chilengedwe, monga kale. Masiku ano, mobwerezabwereza timafuna thandizo kuchokera ku zitsamba zamankhwala, sitikufuna kutenga mankhwala ambiri. Pafupifupi mayi aliyense wam'nyumba amadziwa kakietrava kuti ayenera kuswa chifukwa cha kuzizira kapena kugona. Koma sikuti aliyense amadziwa nthawi yosonkhanitsa zitsamba zamankhwala.
Ndi liti kuti mutenge zitsamba?
Pa kusonkhanitsa kulikonse pali nthawi yomwe maluwa, impso kapena rootlets zimakhala ndi zakudya zochuluka kwambiri. Pofuna kuuma mankhwala othandiza kwambiri, muyenera kudziwa nthawi yosonkhanitsa zitsamba zamankhwala. Pano pali malamulo onse osonkhanitsira:
- Impso. Nthawi yabwino yosonkhanitsa impso ndi gawo lolimbika la chitukuko, pamene impso zatha kale, koma sizinaphuke.
- Masamba. Sungani masamba bwinoko panthawi yomwe iwo adakula bwino ndikukhala ndi nthawi yopanga. Nthawi yabwino yosonkhanitsa masamba ndi kuyamba kwa udzu.
- Maluwa. Kusonkhanitsa kwa maluwa kuyenera kuchitika nthawi yogwira maluwa gawo la mbewu. Pa nthawi imene udzu ukufalikira, mukhoza kusonkhanitsa mbali zina za zitsamba (zimayambira, masamba).
- Rhizomes . Mbewu ikamera bwino, yayamba ndipo yathyoka, ndi nthawi yosonkhanitsa mizu ndi tubers. Panthawi imeneyi ndizobwino kwambiri ndipo zimakhala ndi mphamvu yakuchiritsa kwambiri.
- Nthawi yosonkhanitsa zitsamba za tiyi . Kuti tiyi tizilombo toyambitsa matenda, komanso kukoma kwake, kukhuta zitsamba ziyenera kukhala pachiyambi cha maluwa. Kusonkhanitsa kungathe kuchitika nthawi yonse ya chilimwe, koma ndibwino kukolola masamba aang'ono.
Ndikofunika kukumbukira malo olondola a kusonkhanitsa kwawo:
- Musatenge udzu pamisewu ndifumbi;
- N'zosatheka kusonkhanitsa udzu pamalo omwe mankhwala opopera mbewu ankapangidwira;
- Yang'anani mosamala zomera kuti matenda ndi tizirombo.
