How much can a lychee tree produce?

1. How many kilograms can a lychee tree produce?

How many kilograms of lychees a lychee tree can produce depends on the size of the tree. If the lychee tree has been cultivated for many years, the yield will naturally be higher. The yield of a lychee tree that has just started to bear fruit will be very low. The normal yield of a lychee tree that has been cultivated for four or five years is about 200 kilograms. In addition, the yield of litchi also depends on the cultivation method, cultivation variety, and cultivation area, which will result in different yields. Lychee is a southern plant. It is generally difficult for it to bear fruit in northern regions, and even if it can bear fruit, the yield will be very low.

2. How to get a high yield of litchi

1. Reasonable top dressing: Lychee has a strong ability to tolerate barrenness, but if you want it to bloom and bear fruit better and have a higher yield, you must apply reasonable top dressing during the cultivation period. Apply fertilizer immediately after each fruit picking, with nitrogen fertilizer as the main fertilizer, to promote the development of its root system and thicker branches. In addition, sufficient compound fertilizer should be applied before flowering and fruiting.

2. Timely pruning: Litchi trees need to be pruned in time during their growth period, usually in June and July. Cut off the dense branches, overgrown branches, diseased and insect-infested branches to concentrate nutrients, which is more conducive to flowering and fruiting.

3. Adequate light: Lychees like light and can grow and bear fruit better in an environment with sufficient light. When cultivating, you must choose a plot with sufficient light. Under sufficient light, it will accumulate more nutrients, which is conducive to flowering and fruiting. If the branches are kept in a shady environment for a long time, they will easily grow too tall and become very thin, which will naturally affect the fruiting.
