Pumpkins grow relatively fast. When the pumpkin vines grow to 2-3 meters, the top branches and leaves need to be cut off. The pruning methods are different for different growth conditions. How to prune pumpkinsYou must choose the right time to prune pumpkins. It is best to prune them around May in spring, and it needs to be done when the vine length is more than 1.5 meters. 1. For pumpkins grown on the ground, when the plant grows too vigorously, it is necessary to remove all the extra side branches, yellow leaves, and diseased leaves. This will be more conducive to the growth and expansion of the fruit. 2. If the pumpkin is grown in a greenhouse with hanging vines, it needs to be pruned. When pruning, all the side branches need to be removed, leaving only the main vine to bear fruit. This is more suitable for situations where the pumpkin weight requirements are relatively high. 3. Another method is double-vine pruning, which is to retain two relatively strong side vines for fruit bearing, and remove all the rest. This way, the commercial rate of the fruit will be higher. Pumpkin Pruning Tips1. There are skills in pruning pumpkins. The specific details need to be determined based on the pumpkin variety, planting method, and growth trend. Do not prune blindly. 2. When pruning pumpkins, except for the main vine, which can retain 2-3 side vines, the rest must be cut off. When female flowers are seen, pollination is required around 7 o'clock in the morning. |
