Introduction to Pecan PlantingPecans prefer a warm, humid and sunny environment. They have strong adaptability to the pH of the soil and can grow well in both slightly acidic and slightly alkaline soils. They are suitable for planting in deep, loose and humus-rich soils. The sowing period of pecans in the north is April, and it can be advanced in the south. The varieties grown in the north are called Bonnie or Wichita. The fruit of pecan planting for several yearsSeed propagation produces seedlings, which have a long growth and development cycle and bear fruit very late. Seedlings also have large genetic variation, making it difficult to obtain seedlings of similar quality. Grafting is carried out on the basis of seedlings, and scion grafts are collected from mother trees with excellent traits. After grafting, careful management is carried out. Seedlings that grow well can be grafted in one year and can bear fruit in three years. Grafted pecans bloom and bear fruitThe grafted pecan tree will produce a small amount of fruit after 3 to 4 years, and will enter the high-yield period in the fifth year, with the yield per mu reaching between 200 and 300 catties. Potted pecan fruitFor potted pecans, you must choose the original rootstock. The growth volume is smaller than that of domestic varieties. It will bear fruit after more than 5 years of good management. As for high yield, it will take more than 10 years. The yield per mu is only a few hundred kilograms, which is much lower than the yield of domestic varieties. Why don't pecans bear fruit?The reason why pecans do not bear fruit is poor management, serious pests and diseases, and lack of soil nutrients. Prevention and control are needed according to the actual situation. Key points for growing pecansPecans need to be pruned in the early stage. More main branches can be retained to make them bear fruit early and increase the ventilation of the plant. The branches on the upper part of the crown should be retained as much as possible in the early stage, and the lower part of the crown can be pruned off. The incision must be flattened and coated with protective agent. After entering the aging period, the part above the crown where the renewal branches occur can be pruned off, and the diseased and insect-infested branches must also be pruned. |
