Cultivation techniques of eggplant

Eggplant can be seen on the dinner table, barbecue in the market, restaurant canteen and so on. Eggplant is so popular, so what are the cultivation techniques of eggplant?

First, select eggplant seeds to accelerate germination and raise seedlings.

Take out your stored eggplant seeds and buy them on the street. The seeds should be soaked before accelerating germination, and the soaking time should not be too long. Soaking seeds with gibberellin solution can germinate quickly. It usually takes 3 to 4 days to show the white mouth.

Next, prepare a seedling tray, select an appropriate seedling tray, fill the holes with fertile soil, sow the eggplant seeds with broken mouths and white sprouts evenly into the center of the hole, put two in each hole, and then evenly cover the seeds with a layer of young soil. properly water the soil and moisten the soil.

2. Transplanting eggplant seedlings

In fact, after accelerating the germination and then raising the seedlings, the loess soil will soon sprout and grow true leaves. It takes about seven to eight days from sowing to unearthing two cotyledons, during which we do not need any fertilization, but moderate watering is good to keep the soil moist on the plate. Because under the condition of sufficient soil moisture, eggplant grows well, and when it is insufficient, the soil hardens and flower buds differentiate late, resulting in uneven.

The ability of eggplant root regeneration is very poor, and it is difficult to regenerate new roots. We must transplant eggplant quickly before flower bud differentiation begins when it has 2 or 3 true leaves. Of course, it should be transplanted to the land you planted with soil and roots. Before planting, the soil was raked flat and made into a high ridge with a width of 60cm to 65cm and a high 15cm, then two shallow trenches were opened on the ridge, and then enough bottom water and base fertilizer were applied. Planting eggplant seedlings, the distance is about one 30cm.

III. Planting management

Eggplant should be watered slowly after planting, and watering will not be suspended until the door eggplant is in full bloom, and then the eggplant will generally grow to the size of 3cm, and then water and fertilize, preferably with rotten human and animal feces, or with ammonium sulfate fertilizer. After slow seedling, the amount of water and fertilizer should be larger for the first time, give the eggplant a second time when it begins to expand, and then irrigate it every 10 to 15 days, so that there can be no shortage of water and fertilizer in the middle and later stages of fruiting. During this period, the nutrition absorption is very large, which is related to the yield and quality advantage of eggplant.

IV. Disease and pest control of eggplant

two。 There are many diseases in eggplant, but the common diseases are Verticillium wilt, quenching disease, cotton blight and so on.

For Verticillium wilt, we can irrigate the roots with dioxon, root rot ning and wilting liquid, or disinfect the seeds before sowing.

For sudden collapse disease and continuous blight disease, we can spray pluck, antivirus alum, Lectra cream and Jiahuangling manganese solution.

1. Eggplant pests include Spodoptera litura, thrips, red spiders and so on.

Arebo EC, Mengweiling and avermectin can be used to control Spodoptera litura.

Thrips can choose 5% thistle aphid enemy liquid; imidacloprid + good year winter 600 times solution for spray control.

Red spiders can choose dicofol, Uranus and clear mites for spray control.

V. Harvest

When the eggplant is fully expanded, the fruit is purple-black, or the variety you plant is white, and when the outer skin is shiny, harvest as soon as possible, in order to increase the early yield and increase the output value. It is best to cut it from the stalk during harvest to reduce bruising.
