Management methods for grapefruit flowering period

1. Pruning

1. Pruning flower branches: Some old fruit trees have more flowers, so some weak branches should be pruned at this time.

2. Pruning treetops: Reasonable pruning of treetops can give plants more space to grow, increase the area receiving light, and improve the fruit growth rate.

3. Pinching: Pruning off branches with apical dominance can promote the side branches to absorb more nutrients, improve the growth of side branches, and facilitate uniform fruiting.

2. Management

1. Cultivate some healthy and disease-free branches to prepare for fruiting next year.

2. You can apply some trace element fertilizer to the plant, or you can spray some with a spray bottle to supplement the nutrients needed by the plant.

3. Ensure adequate supply of water and fertilizer when the plants are flowering. Do not sprinkle water on the trees when watering, otherwise they will be infected with diseases and pests.

3. Disease prevention and control

The plant is most susceptible to diseases and pests when it is flowering, so it is necessary to prevent and control pests in time at this time, otherwise it will seriously affect the fruit setting rate.
