Scientific planting techniques of Yangjiao Crispy Melon

Sheep's horn crispy melon is similar to a swollen cucumber in appearance, and its shape is like the two horns of a sheep, hence its name. Yangjiao Crispy Melon is light green with a little white after ripening, with thick flesh, rich taste and high sugar content. Although it is not as good-looking as other melons, it still sells well.

Scientific planting techniques of Yangjiao Crispy Melon

1. It is suitable for hanging vine cultivation in greenhouse, about 2000 seedlings per mu in greenhouse cultivation, hanging main vine, leaving melon with more than 4-5 leaves, no need to spray Gualing. During the fruit setting period, increase the temperature difference between day and night, and properly control nitrogen fertilizer and irrigation to prevent excessive growth from affecting fruit setting. The first stubble melon should be 3-4 per plant, when 6-10 leaves grow out of melon code, pinching at the same time, can sit melon at the same time, expand at the same time, so that the fruit is neat and consistent.

2. Leave a leaf to pick the heart and remove all the growing points in front of the vine after fruit set. generally, when the main vine grows to 25-30 true leaves about 40 centimeters from the top of the shed, the main vine will pick the heart to promote melon control. Generally, there is no melon left at the 10th-20th section of the waist, and the vine can be removed in time. When the plant is weak, the vine can leave a leaf pinching tip. The first stubble melon egg is big, when the melon embryo born in the upper section is easy to sit, pinch 2-3, leave 2-3 melon, remove the fruit-free vine as early as possible, and leave a growing point at the top without picking the heart. In the later stage, open the greenhouse film, leave 2-3 fruits on the sun vine, and bear the third stubble fruit.

3. Pruning and pinching should be done after clear dew evaporation, so as to facilitate wound healing as soon as possible and prevent infection. It is best to use scissors for pruning, and prepare a moist towel soaked with 75% chlorothalonil and 200 times liquid. Wipe the scissors once after cutting each tree to prevent cross-infection.

Characteristics of Sheep horn Crispy Melon

The sheep's horn is crisp, a kind of melon that forms a sheep's horn. After the melon is ripe, the fruit is grayish white, light green, the flesh is orange, the fruit is about 25 cm long, the weight of a single melon is 2kg, the meat is about 2cm thick, the sugar content is high, the sweetness is up to 20ml 26 degrees, and the taste is unique, fragrant and crisp. Early and middle maturity varieties, strong plant growth, son vine melon, female flowers dense, fruit long cone-shaped, one end is large, one end is slightly thin and pointed, like sheep horn honey, hence the name sheep horn honey. The peel is grayish green, the flesh color is light green, the inner thickness is 2cm, the content is 11.7%, the texture is crisp, the juice is clear and sweet, the quality is excellent, the weight of single melon is 600g, and the yield is more than 3000kg per mu.

Leaf maintenance in the middle and later stage of sheep horn brittleness

In the middle and later stage of plant growth, that is, the melon expansion and maturity stage, the plant reproductive growth is exuberant, which needs to consume a lot of organic and inorganic nutrients, the burden of roots and leaves is heavy, the nutrient reserve is small, and the resistance is weakened. At this time, attention should be paid to strengthening leaf maintenance, such as spraying chitin 1000 times, Leduo foliar fertilizer 6000 times, etc., once a week to supplement foliar nutrition and improve leaf activity, which is very good for preventing leaf aging and avoiding plant premature senescence. In addition, we should also pay attention to avoid drug damage, hormone poisoning and other damage to the leaves. When spraying, avoid using sensitive agents, do not mix too many kinds of pesticides, spray evenly to avoid drug damage.

Disease control of sheep horn brittleness

First of all, the greenhouse environment should be regulated to create an environment that is not conducive to pathogen infection. High humidity is the most likely to lead to diseases. With the increase of external temperature, reasonable watering should be done, ventilation should be strengthened and humidity in the shed should be reduced.

Secondly, enhance the disease resistance of the plant. Reasonable watering and topdressing, promoting root growth and paying attention to leaf maintenance, chitin, alginic acid, nucleotide and other spraying or root irrigation can be selected to improve the function of roots and leaves and enhance plant stress resistance.

Finally, chemical control should be reasonable. In the usual greenhouse management, there are few sunny weather diseases, so broad-spectrum fungicides such as chlorothalonil and Amisida can be sprayed every half a month to prevent the diseases. on cloudy days, the frequency of medication should be appropriately increased and sprayed once every 7-10 days, which can have a good effect on disease prevention.

Yangjiao crispy melon is suitable for growing in greenhouse, and the temperature and humidity should be just right, which will be beneficial to its growth. Cantaloupe melons should be pinched after planting to ensure their later growth, but choose to scrub and disinfect them in good weather to avoid infection and decay.
