Can prunes be grown in the south?

Plums can be grown in the south because the climate there is relatively warm and humid, so it is very suitable for growing prunes. However, many soils in the south are not suitable, so you must choose suitable soil when planting.

Plums are more suitable for growing on hillsides or in fields. Currently, plums are mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Xinjiang, Liaoning and other regions. Generally, the plum variety suitable for planting in southern China is Plum Goddess.

Southern Plum Planting Technology

1. Lighting

Generally, when caring for prunes, you should give them as much light as possible, because they can only grow and bear fruit normally if they get sufficient light time, so you must ensure that they get at least 6 hours of light time a day.

2. Temperature

Plums like a warm environment, so when caring for them, you must ensure that the surrounding temperature is not lower than 10 degrees Celsius, otherwise it is easy to freeze their roots, thus affecting the overall yield.

3. Watering

When caring for plums, you need to pay attention to the watering time. Generally, it is sufficient to replenish water once a week, and do not water too much each time. Generally, you can stop watering when the soil is completely moist.
