High-yield cultivation techniques of Pumpkin seedlings

Variety selection: local seedlings with strong and long melons should be selected. Seed treatment: dry seeds for 2 days and then soak them in warm water at 50℃. After water cooling, soak them for about 10 hours, and then place them at room temperature at 30℃ for germination. Selection of land: select land with good drainage, fertile and low groundwater level. Sowing: 3-8 months, to apply sufficient base fertilizer, 2 seeds per hole, and then irrigate enough water, can be covered with film to promote growth, regular application of decomposed farm manure.

1. Selection of varieties

Before planting, we should select pumpkin seeds with strong local seedlings and long melons, such as corbel melon, dahongpao melon, pillow melon, plate melon, yellow petal melon, etc., and varieties with short melon seedlings should not be planted.

II. Treatment of seeds

Put the selected pumpkin seeds in the sun for about 2 days, then soak them in warm water at about 50℃ to prevent scalding seeds. Keep stirring. When the water temperature drops to 30℃, soak them for about 15-20 minutes. After cooling, soak them for about 7-12 hours. Finally, place them at 30℃ for germination. After about 2 days, they can sprout.

III. Land Selection and Preparation

Pumpkin seedlings should be selected in fertile, low groundwater level, good drainage plot planting, after selecting the land, can be divided into furrows, can be divided into furrows according to the width of 1.5m, and then furrows, ditch depth of 15- 20cm, ditch width of 30cm, four sides can be dug drainage ditch.

IV. Timely sowing

General pumpkin seedlings in March began to sow, until August can be seeded in batches, first dig a good seed hole, row spacing of about 20cm, plant spacing of about 10cm, each hole can be seeded about 2 seeds, and then irrigated enough water, covered with a layer of nutrient soil can be.

5. Rational fertilization

1. Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied before sowing. About 2000-2500 kg of decomposed farm manure or 2500-3000 kg of soil fertilizer can be applied per mu, and about 20 kg of phosphate fertilizer can be applied together.

2. After sowing, decomposed farm manure can be applied. In order to improve the ground temperature, a film can be covered on it, and the surrounding area can be compacted with wet soil. After seedling emergence, seedlings can grow in the film. In order to promote rapid growth of melon seedlings, decomposed farm manure should be applied regularly to ensure the nutrients required by plants. In order to promote early germination after each harvest, quick-acting nitrogen fertilizer should be applied.

VI. Timely harvest

1. When the pumpkin seedlings grow to about 40cm and grow 5-6 true leaves, they can be harvested in batches. Keep the basic 1-2 true leaves and cut off the upper tender seedlings. When the axillary buds grow to about 40 cm, they can be harvested repeatedly.

5-7 days before each harvest, in order to improve the yield, you can spray about 80 mg of "920" solution per kilogram, which is also conducive to improving the quality of pumpkin seedlings.
