Cultivation methods and precautions of black persimmon

1. Maintenance methods

1. Flower pot: Black persimmon is mostly used in bonsai making, so it is best to choose a flower pot with strong air permeability and good water absorption capacity. Ordinary ceramic pots, clay pots, stone pots, and porcelain pots can all be used for planting, among which purple clay pots are the most popular.

2. Substrate: Black persimmon can also grow in relatively poor soil. If conditions permit, you can choose soil with strong air permeability and good fertility. You can mix leaf mold and nutrient soil and then plant it.

3. Water: Black persimmon likes to grow in a humid environment. You can water it in small amounts every 2-3 days to keep the soil slightly moist. In the hot summer, you can increase the amount and frequency of watering appropriately. You can also use a watering bottle to spray a small amount of water around to cool down and replenish moisture for the leaves.

4. Nutrients: Apply more nitrogen fertilizer when new branches grow in spring to promote healthy growth of branches. During the growing period, more phosphorus fertilizer can be applied, and then wood ash can be sprinkled every once in a while.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Sowing: The black persimmon fruits will mature in autumn. After picking the ripe fruits, take out the seeds and dry them. Try to dry them in a ventilated place to prevent the seeds from rotting. Wait until the spring of next year, prepare fertile and moist soil and then plant it.

2. Cutting: It is mainly carried out in spring or summer every year. Prepare fertile and moist soil before cutting. Cut the branches from the mother plant and insert them directly into the soil.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Angular spot disease: If the fruit becomes soft or falls prematurely, it may be diseased. July and August every year are the outbreak period of angular leaf spot disease. Before that, May and June are roughly its incubation period. You can spray 75% of thiophanate-methyl diluted one thousand times on the back of the leaves for prevention and control.

2. Peach borer: The peach borer overwinters in cocoons every year and feeds on fruits. There is a major outbreak in August and September every year. In the early stages of the outbreak, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane can be mixed with water and sprayed.

IV. Other issues

1. Is it poisonous? The fruit is poisonous. The shape of the fruit is similar to that of common edible persimmons, which may cause accidental ingestion. You should try to stay away from it. Be especially careful when bringing children to watch, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble.

2. Flowering period: Every spring is the flowering season for black persimmon. The flowers have charming fragrance when they bloom. Most of them are white and highly ornamental.
