Ginseng fruit cultivation methods and precautions

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Ginseng fruit likes a warm and comfortable growing environment. The suitable temperature for growth is between 15 and 20 degrees. The temperature cannot be higher than 38 degrees or lower than 8 degrees, otherwise it will grow poorly. At the same time, if the temperature is around zero degrees, the whole plant will be frozen to death, so the temperature must be controlled during the breeding period.

2. Watering: The demand for water during the growth period is relatively high, and the plant needs more water during the flowering and fruiting period. The soil must always be kept moist so that it can grow better. Specific watering requires observing changes in the soil, but there should be no accumulation of water during the watering process to avoid root rot.

3. Light: Ginseng fruit must have sufficient light during its fruiting period. The fruit will grow more ideally under sufficient light conditions, and when the light reaches the growth requirements, the fruit will mature as soon as possible. But it cannot accept too strong light. If the light is too strong, the branches and leaves will become curled and will be affected to a certain extent.

4. Fertilization: Before planting, apply enough base fertilizer. It is best to use farmyard manure, which will be beneficial to the absorption of seedlings. During the subsequent breeding period, you should also apply topdressing from time to time. Topdressing mainly consists of compound fertilizer. Fertilization can also be combined with watering to allow all the fertilizer to penetrate into the roots.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: Cutting is the main method of reproduction, and it can be carried out all year round, but it is best to do it in spring and autumn. The temperatures in these two seasons are most suitable and most conducive to growth. Of course, the best temperature is between 15 and 30 degrees.

2. Pruning: The branching ability of ginseng fruit is very strong, so it needs to be pruned from time to time, cutting off some of the crazy growing side branches to reduce nutrient loss and allow the main trunk to grow unaffected.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: Leaf mold occurs in summer. This disease will cause brown spots to appear on the back of the leaves, and the leaves will become curled. Therefore, ventilation needs to be strengthened and all diseased branches and leaves need to be cut off.

2. Pests: Red spider mites will appear, and you can spray 28% chlorpyrifos-phoxim emulsifiable concentrate 1000 to control them. After using it several times in a row, they will be under control.
