How to plant bayberry saplings? The key point of technology is to apply fertilizer reasonably to promote yield.

Seedling selection: to observe whether the roots of bayberry seedlings are exuberant and alive. Temperature: the most suitable temperature is 15-25 ℃. If the temperature is higher than 30 ℃, it must be cooled artificially. Transplanting: it needs to be carried out in spring. Planting: it is necessary to dig deep and wide planting holes and apply a sufficient amount of farm manure. Planting density: the row spacing is about 5m, and the plant spacing is about 4m. Fertilization: fertilizing 2-3 times a year, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, topdressing farm manure and urea at flowering stage, and boron fertilizer at fruit setting stage.

1. The method of selecting seedlings

When selecting seedlings, we should carefully observe the roots to see if they are more vigorous and exuberant. If the roots are dry and only dilute a few roots, the survival rate of this kind of bayberry seedlings is not high, so do not choose. Then we can observe the branches and leaves of red bayberry, if the branches and leaves grow more luxuriantly and the color is more green, and the water is also full, it can show that its vitality is more exuberant and can be selected as a seedling. When planting, it is necessary to prune the excess branches and leaves on the seedlings so as not to consume nutrients, help the trunk to absorb more nutrients, and improve the survival rate.

2. Planting temperature

The suitable growth environment of red bayberry is about 15-25 ℃. If the planting temperature is between this temperature, it is beneficial to improve the survival rate of red bayberry. Red bayberry has poor drought resistance, but good cold resistance. It can grow in an environment of about 9 ℃ below zero without any artificial heat preservation, but if the temperature is higher than 30 ℃, it will suffocate if it is not cooled artificially. Bayberry trees need a lot of water when they grow, so they must be planted in areas where there is plenty of water, so as to meet the water demand for growth.

3. Timely transplanting

Red bayberry is green all the year round and occasionally has fallen leaves. If it is not planted at the right time, its survival rate will not be high. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the time when red bayberry takes root and long leaves. Generally, red bayberry ripens in summer and slowly enters dormancy in autumn and winter. this time is not suitable for planting, because its growth is not so strong, it is best to choose in spring. February and March every year for transplanting, the growth ability of this time is very strong, after transplanting can adapt to the new environment more quickly.

4. Matters needing attention in planting

In the process of planting, it should be noted that the planting hole should be dug deeper and wider, generally about 1m wide and about 80cm deep, and then apply a sufficient amount of farm manure, crop base fertilizer, or a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer. Before planting, it is necessary to prune most of the branches and leaves, leaving only the branches at the top of the middle, and then protect the branches of the cut leaves, which is conducive to the rapid growth of new buds in the new environment and improve the survival rate. Watering is carried out after planting, generally watering about 3 times a day, until new shoots grow on the cut branches, so there is no need to water.

5. Reasonable planting density

Reasonable planting density is beneficial to improve the survival rate of planting. Red bayberry needs a certain amount of light in the growth process, so the density should not be too high. Generally, the row spacing is about 5m and the plant spacing is about 4m. Reasonable planting density is beneficial to its growth. In order to make it better for photosynthesis, it must be pruned regularly.

6. Rational fertilization

After planting, it is generally necessary to apply fertilizer 2-3 times a year, mainly applying nitrogen fertilizer, combined with phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, which is helpful to promote the growth of seedlings. When it blossoms and bears fruit, it is necessary to topdressing farm manure and urea, mainly applying boron fertilizer in the fruit setting period, and properly replenishing soil fertility in the annual dormancy period to prepare in advance for the coming year.
