Snake fruit cultivation methods and precautions

Snake fruit cultivation methods and precautions

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: If the temperature difference is larger, the fruit setting rate and color concentration of the plant will be better. Different stages require different maintenance temperatures: the temperature needs to be controlled at around 15 degrees during the flowering period, which is better for fertilization and fruit setting. The normal maintenance temperature should be controlled at around 20 degrees, and a lower night temperature must be ensured, so that the quality of the plant's fruit will be very good and the sugar content will be relatively high.

2. Watering: If the maintenance environment is humid and there is a lot of rain, you need to take anti-waterlogging measures. If there is a long-term drought, you need to replenish the plant with water. The amount of watering does not need to be too much each time, just water until the soil is slightly moist. Generally, watering is required every week during dry periods.

3. Fertilization: As the age of the tree increases, the amount of fertilizer also needs to be increased appropriately. When fertilizing, nitrogen fertilizer, organic fertilizer, and compound fertilizer should be used in combination. Use less fertilizer each time and more often. It is better to fertilize once every half a month during the growing season, and no fertilizer is needed during the non-growing season.

4. Light: Its growth cannot be separated from light. The more light there is during the day, the better its fruit will grow. According to research, plants with more than 1,800 hours of annual sunlight produce better-tasting fruits. Therefore, the daily sunlight should be guaranteed to be at least five hours.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: It can be propagated by sowing. The sowing method is very simple. First, soak the seeds in warm water for half a day, then disinfect them with disinfectant, and then you can sow them. After sowing, cover them with soil, water them, and the seedlings will emerge in two weeks.

2. Pruning: Annual plants do not need excessive pruning, because annual plants need to grow well. Pruning is mainly to remove some branches that do not grow well. Do not cut the flower buds, so that it will grow stronger. From August to October every year, the branches that have stopped growing need to be pinched off in order to control branch growth. This can promote nutrient accumulation and allow the plants to safely overwinter.

3. Problem Diagnosis

1. Pests: For pests, you can use insecticidal lamps and hang yellow boards to trap them.

2. Diseases: Snake apple diseases include leaf fall and powdery mildew. You can use carbendazim suspension to spray it.

IV. Other issues

1. Edible: edible.

2. Can it be raised at home? It is not very suitable for home breeding because the plant is relatively large and it is difficult to maintain in pots. Moreover, it has high requirements for the maintenance environment and does not meet the conditions for home breeding.
