2. Cultivation techniques of Myrica rubra

1. Growth environment: red bayberry likes dampness and shade tolerance, large crown and wide root distribution. Bayberry orchard is required to be built in acidic yellow soil and red-yellow soil with an elevation of less than 800 meters, a slope of less than 45 degrees, a thick humus layer and a pH value of 4.5-5.5, with shady ventilation and convenient intensive management. convenient for transportation in mountains, hills, weak light, deep soil layer. The climatic condition is subtropical humid monsoon climate. Under the microclimate conditions of large light radiation, sufficient heat, high accumulated temperature in winter and spring and moderate low precipitation distribution in summer and autumn, the high quality and high yield are more significant.

two。 Land preparation: land preparation should be completed before planting from November to March of the following year according to local conditions. Small slope, gentle slope of woodland, set up around the mountain terrace soil or terrace to dig holes; larger slope, complex topography of woodland, also dig 1 meter square fish scale hole or triangular hole, in the later tending gradually changed to narrow band ladder soil.

Planting: the planting time of red bayberry is generally from late February to mid-March when the temperature has begun to warm, it is best to choose cloudy or light rainy days, when the survival rate of single plant is high. The selection of varieties should depend on different regions, and the varieties of early, middle and late maturity should be matched reasonably.

4. Fertilizer and water: lettuce, medicine or green manure can be planted in woodland in order to improve the efficiency of soil fertilizer. Young trees are mainly quick-acting fertilizers, with combined application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, fertilizing 2-3 times a year. Adult trees are fertilized twice a year, the first time in late winter and early spring before sprouting and shoots, and the second time after fruit harvest, accounting for 50-55% of the annual fertilizer application, to do a good job in soil improvement, excluding waterlogging and other work to ensure the high quality and high yield of bayberry.

At present, there are a lot of bayberry planted artificially, but bayberry is easy to rot, so it must be sold or eaten in time.
