东阳县古光乡朝阳社特产队长李文桂和他的爱人金香光,大胆地做了冬季扦插试验。于1957年12月20日在区农技站张允豪同志的指导下,扦插了200株,今年开春以后,逐渐发根成活,到7月18日时,茶苗平均高度为16.49公分,最高达32.50公分,其春梢平均长为11.33公分,最长达12.5公分,平均主干直径为0.24公分,最短达O.30公分,根系发达,支根长达10公分左右,成活率在80％以上,打破了茶树短穗扦插只有春、夏、秋三季扦插的旧观念,为解决种苗,发展新茶园开辟了更为广泛的道路。冬季短穗扦插还有很多的优点:首先因为扦插时期在多季,与农业上劳力矛盾较小,易为群众所接受。其次是冬季气温低,阳光照射不强,管理方便,灌溉浇水管理亦不如其它三季费工,同时从朝 Dongyang County ancient Chaoyang Township, Captain Li Wengui and his wife Jin Xianguang boldly done the winter cutting test. On December 20, 1957, under the guidance of Comrade Zhang Yunhao, a district agronomy station, there were 200 cuttings. After the spring of this year, they gradually developed their roots. By July 18, the average height of tea plants was 16.49 cm, up to 32.50 Cm, the spring shoot average length of 11.33 cm, up to 12.5 cm, the average trunk diameter of 0.24 cm, the shortest O.30 cm, root system developed, root length up to 10 cm, the survival rate of 80% or more, breaking The short cuttings of tea tree cuttings only in spring, summer and autumn, the old concept of seedlings for the development of new tea gardens has opened up a broader road. There are many advantages of winter short spike cutting: First, because the cutting period in the multi-season, contradiction with the labor force in agriculture is small, easily accepted by the masses. Followed by low temperature in winter, the sun is not strong, easy management, irrigation and water management is not as good as the other three seasons, at the same time from the North
