Maintaining an optimal ground temperature is crucial for the healthy growth of vegetable roots. For crops like cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, and peppers, the ideal root temperature range lies between 20°C and 22°C. When the temperature drops below 12°C, root activity is significantly reduced, and at 8°C, root growth almost halts entirely. If the temperature falls below 5°C, the roots can freeze and die. Therefore, it's essential to monitor and adjust the ground temperature based on the specific crop being grown. If the temperature is too low, especially in greenhouses, warming measures such as using heat-retaining materials or covering the soil with plastic films should be implemented to help raise the temperature effectively.
In addition to temperature control, proper watering and fertilization are equally important. Irregular watering—whether too dry or too wet—can severely affect the root system. Watering during the hottest part of the day, for example, can cause damage to the fine root hairs, which are vital for nutrient absorption. It’s best to water early in the morning, before 10 a.m., and avoid overwatering to prevent waterlogging. In winter, when the soil tends to dry out more quickly, regular loosening of the soil can improve aeration and promote better root development. Fertilization should also be done carefully, avoiding excessive amounts that may burn the roots. In particular, high-nitrogen fertilizers should be avoided during colder months to prevent ammonia buildup, which can harm the plants.
Another key practice is the use of biological bacterial fertilizers. These beneficial microbes improve soil structure, enhance fertility, and help suppress soil-borne diseases. Incorporating them into the soil during top-dressing can greatly benefit plant health and long-term soil quality.
Finally, it's important to remain vigilant against soil-borne diseases and underground pests. Early detection and prevention are essential to avoid serious crop losses. Regular monitoring and appropriate cultural practices can go a long way in maintaining a healthy growing environment for vegetables.
Mini Locking Plate
The mini locking system can be used for the fixation of ossicles and small bone fragments, osteotomy, arthrodesis, and replantation and reconstruction of ossicles and small bone fragments.
It is composed of micro locking plate 1.5mm/2.0mm/2.4mm/2.7mm series, covering a variety of plate types and a wide range of indications. The plates are all anatomical design, which reduces the need for shaping and helps to reduce the workload of surgeons. Low profile and countersunk screw design can reduce soft tissue injury. Matching orthopedic screws self-tapping design, convenient implantation, screw plum design, reduce screw hexagonal sliding teeth. The composite hole design can not only realize the compression of the fracture end, but also can be used as a locking internal orthopedic fixation frame. Part of the reconstruction structure is convenient for the surgeon to tailor the implant according to the actual situation in the reoperation, and increase the flexibility of the operation. Its indications are mainly phalanx, metacarpal, scaphoid and other carpal bones, ulnar styloid process and capitulum, radial head and styloid process fracture fixation. The 1.5mm orthopedic implants titanium system is mainly used for the middle and proximal phalanx, the 2.0mm orthopedic plates system for the metacarpal bones, the 2.4mm implant locking plate system for the first metacarpal bones and carpal bones, and the 2.7mm mini plate system is mainly used for the distal ulna and radius. According to the clinical research, the micro-locking plate internal fixation in the treatment of multiple comminuted metacarpal fractures can effectively achieve the anatomical reduction and healing required by the clinic. The patients have good postoperative healing, and the functional recovery of the affected limb is good during the postoperative follow-up. It has good clinical effect and can be further promoted and applied.
