The planting method of muskmelon

Every summer, many people will choose to eat melons to relieve the heat, the best way is to chill for a while and then eat, after eating in the hot summer, it is simply a cool feeling, making people feel very comfortable. And the edible value of muskmelon is very high, its nutrient content is very rich, often eat a lot of benefits to the human body.

The planting method of muskmelon

1. The suitable seedling age of muskmelon is 30ml / 35d. The suitable planting period was when the seedlings grew to three leaves, and the muskmelon root group had strong absorptive capacity. The loose sandy land with thick soil layer and fertilizer is the best. Muskmelon is more tolerant to salt and alkali and can grow on light alkali soil. The nutrition absorbed by the growth and development of muskmelon is relatively comprehensive, and the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is 2: 1: 1: 3.7, and potassium chloride fertilizer should be banned.

2. Before planting, 4000 kilograms of mature organic fertilizer or 100 kilograms of potassium sulfate controlled-release fertilizer should be applied per mu as base fertilizer. After fertilizing, turn the soil 30 centimeters deeply, rake fine and level it, ridge or make the border, and cultivate in the greenhouse for high ridges. Generally, ridges are made at a distance of 70cm for a small row and 80m for a large row.

3. Arch garden shed cultivation can be used as half-height ridge or flat border cultivation, first sprinkle 2 ∕ 3 fertilizer and then plough the land, according to the small border width of 60cm, large border width of 170cm to make the border. Apply the remaining 1 ∕ 3 fertilizer into the small bed, mix the soil fertilizer well and rake the border surface.

4. When planting, open trenches to plant seedlings, water, cover soil and cover plastic film on the surface of ridges or small beds. The large melon varieties planted 1500murmur1800 plants per mu, and the small varieties about 2000 plants. Thin-skinned muskmelon grows on flat ground, generally planting about 900 murmur1000 plants per mu.

Growth conditions of muskmelon

1. The best breeding time. The suitable sowing time for muskmelon cultivation is from August to October, and no later than November 15 at the latest. Spring sowing can be from February to March, but it is better to ensure the harvest during Qingming Festival and Grain Rain Festival.

2. The best growing soil. The most suitable soil for the growth and development of muskmelon is loam or sandy loam with deep soil layer, rich organic matter, fertile and well-aerated loam, and the soil with solid phase, gas phase and liquid phase is suitable.

3. Growth humidity requirements. Muskmelon is resistant to drought and waterlogging, but because of its shallow roots, high requirements for soil moisture, large leaf transpiration and low requirements for air humidity, especially thick-skinned muskmelon, it is best to control the air relative humidity below 50%.

4. The optimum growth temperature. The optimum temperature for growth and development is 18ml / 25 ℃. The suitable temperature for flowering and fruiting is 22 ℃ 25 min. Its adaptability is wider than that of cucumber, and its resistance to low temperature is also very strong.

5. The best growth light. Sufficient light is required, the sunshine time should be more than 10: 12 hours every day, and keep 14: 15 hours / day as usual, the melon grows well.

Matters needing attention in muskmelon planting

1. Spread fertilizer. During the growth period of muskmelon, special attention should be paid to the application of potassium fertilizer, which can obviously improve the quality of muskmelon. In order to control nitrogen fertilizer, excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer will not only reduce the sweetness of muskmelon, but also cause excessive nitrite accumulation, which is harmful to human body. The principle of "controlling nitrogen, applying phosphorus and increasing potassium" should be grasped in the fertilization of muskmelon, and the combined application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium should be achieved.

2. Main points of watering. After planting, the melon expansion period needs to be watered for 2 to 3 times. After the first time, when most melons grow to the size of eggs, 30 kg of ternary compound fertilizer is generally applied with 667 square meters of water, and then, according to the environment and growth conditions, watering and topdressing according to local conditions, do not suddenly dry and wet, to prevent cracking melon.

3. Pruning essentials. Extensive management and simple pruning, that is, when the field leaf area coefficient is large in the middle and later stage, the top is simply topped with a stick to prevent the field from being sheltered. Double-vine pruning can also be used. When the main vine is 3-5 leaves, two strong-growing vines are selected and extended evenly to the border surface. The sun vine knot melon, leaving two leaves in front of the melon to pick the heart, one for each grandson vine, and three and five for each melon plant.

Insect control of muskmelon

1. Powdery mildew. Spray control with 500-fold solution of Qingyinzole, 600-fold solution of triadimefon, 800-fold solution of polyantimycin B800 or 600-fold solution of baking soda.

2. Downy mildew. Spray control with 72010 grams of wettable powder 600 times or enamylmorpholine 600 times.

3. Fusarium wilt. Use Kangkuling 25. 9% aqueous solution 500 times, or transplanting Ling 1 500 times, or carbendazim 1000 times, or 23% complex ammonia and copper 800 times solution for root control.

4. Bacterial horn spot and leaf blight. Spray control with 800-fold solution of Jiaobanjing, 800-fold solution of killing, or 1000-fold solution of agricultural streptomycin.

5. Aphids. Use 1 500 times solution of avermiprid, or clean 1 000 times at once, or spray 2 000 Mel 2 500 times of acetamiprid 20% EC.

In the cultivation of muskmelon, good seeds must be selected to accelerate germination, so that the germination rate will be high. It is generally planted in spring and early autumn, which are the two seasons most conducive to the survival of melons. In the later stage, it is necessary to timely cut the branches, so that the fruit setting rate will be increased, so as to ensure the yield of muskmelon in the later stage.
