Hami melon planting timeHami melon, also known as snow melon, is a variety of melon in the Cucurbitaceae family. Hami melon is generally planted from April to May. Before April 20, when the temperature 10 cm underground is 14 degrees, it can be sown. Hami melon sowing method1. Site selection and land preparation: The soil for Hami melon planting needs to be sandy loam with good drainage and high fertility. The pH value of the soil should be between 7-8. The best time to prepare the land is in autumn. The depth of land preparation should be about 30 cm. Irrigation is also required to eliminate some overwintering grasses and underground pests. 2. Apply base fertilizer: After spring, turn the soil in the Hami melon field, apply 4,000 kg/mu of organic fertilizer, rake it fine and level it after application, and dig sowing furrows after land preparation. The distance between each furrow needs to be 4-4.5 meters, the depth needs to be 0.5-0.6 meters, the top width needs to be 0.9-1 meter, and the bottom width needs to be 30 centimeters. 3. Irrigation before sowing: Hami melons should be irrigated 5 days before sowing so that the seedlings can emerge evenly. About 80 cubic meters of water are needed for one acre of land. 4. Cover the ground with film: Spread a 90cm-100cm wide transparent plastic film on the Hami melon ditch, and press, flatten and compact it against the ditch bottom and ditch wall. 5. Seed treatment: Before sowing, soak the seeds in a 2% trisodium phosphate aqueous solution for 2 hours, then wash them 2 to 3 times with clean water. After washing, place the seeds in a cool place for about an hour before sowing. Hami melon ripe harvestHami melons generally mature from July to September. There are more Hami melons that mature naturally in the summer, but with the continuous advancement of planting technology, Hami melons are now on the market in large quantities from May to October, with an annual yield of about 2,100 kilograms per mu. |
