How to put on apple bags quickly?

Bagging is a key technology in producing high-quality apples . It not only makes the apples look more beautiful, but also can effectively prevent various diseases and pests. So how do you put on an apple bag quickly? Let’s learn more about it below.

1. Preparation for bagging

Before bagging, the entire orchard must be sprayed, because it will be very inconvenient to spray the apples after bagging. Doing it in advance can avoid having to unpack the bags and re-spray later. In addition, you can apply a little water on the bag opening the night before bagging. This will make the bag opening easier to rub open and reduce the workload on the next day.

2. Fruit bag selection

It is best to use high-quality double-layer paper bags. The outer bag is required to be highly hydrophobic, resistant to wind, sun and rain, and have good light-shielding and air-permeability. The inner bag requires a uniform wax layer that does not melt at high temperatures, has good water-proof properties, and is easy to separate the inner and outer bags. Plastic film fruit bags are generally not used. After the apples are put into plastic film fruit bags, the color is poor, and they easily lose water when the bags are removed, making them unsuitable for storage.

3. Bagging time

The best time to bag apples is 30-40 days after flowering, but the bagging time may vary for different varieties of apples. For example, yellow-green varieties are usually bagged 10-15 days after flowering, while early-maturing red varieties are bagged in late May to early June.

4. Bagging method

There is a certain order to bag apples, generally from top to bottom and from inside to outside, so that they will not affect each other. Keep the bag within easy reach, perhaps with a rubber band around your hand. First, open the bag, then put the young apples in, and then tighten the bag with a rubber band to prevent insects and rain from entering.

5. Notes

Be sure to choose a sunny day for bagging. Don't put on bags if the sun is too strong or if it is windy or rainy. After bagging, arrange the fruits a little bit, making sure the fruits are suspended in the bag and not pressed against the bag.

The above is an introduction to the methods and precautions for bagging apples. In short, the method is not very difficult. The important thing is to practice until you become proficient in it, so that you can do it quickly and well.
