In the Bush the bulbs are flush with each other, the roots intertwine, forming in the soil a continuous sod cover.
Biological features
Chives are very hardy, not freeze solid even in the far North. Grows early in the spring, shoots tolerate frosts to -3...-4 °C. On one place can grow up to 10 years, but the highest yield obtained when grown in two-, three-year culture. Shoots much branched, forming in the fourth year of life more than 50 branches. From 4-5 the first year of life shoots and leaves are shrinking, the number of arrows increases, plant productivity decreases. Snitt blooms in the second year of life. Floral arrows thin, reach 30-50 cm in height. Inflorescences small, spherical, with pink, lilac and purple (rarely white) flowers. Seeds are formed starting from the second year of life, remain viable for 1 to 2 years.
Agriculture and breeding
Chives can be grown in annual, biennial and perennial culture. It is propagated by vegetative (dividing the Bush), sowing seeds in the soil and seedlings. Vegetative reproduction old bushes is divided into parts (planting units), consisting of 4-5 branches. When preparing them for planting the leaves and roots are pruned (the height of the branches from the stems to the top 15 cm and root length is 5-8 cm). Planted according to the scheme 45—60x25—30, see Best planting time is early spring (April—may). Snitch grows well on fertile, moist, but not waterlogged sites. The soil is carefully prepared in the fall. Dug to a depth of 25— 30 cm by digging contribute 7-10 kg/m2 of organic fertilizer (humus and compost). In spring before sowing the land level, soil good cut and compacted (rolled down). Snit sow in spring, summer and winter, but the best time is spring (second decade of April - I decade of may). The scheme of planting 45-50 x 25-30 cm, seeding depth 0.5—0.7 cm. After sowing seeds sprinkled with moist soil, slightly compacted, and then sprinkled loose soil. Seedlings emerge in 7-10-th day. When the sprouts out the soil in between rows loosened to ensure air access to the roots. In the phase of the 1st true leaf seedlings were thinned, leaving them in the row on distance of 10-15 cm from each other. The removed plants are used as seedlings that are planted on private land. When grown as annuals seedlings planted under the scheme 15 x 3-4 cm and use cultivated plants in the year of sowing. In the first year the crops are loosened, watered, weed, at the end of the growing season remove withered parts of plants.
Use as a table, spices and ornamental plant.
