Key points of cultivation techniques of Waxberry

Bayberry is a common kind of tree in daily life. It can not only be used as a greening tree, but its fruit can also be eaten. Now many well-known parks will also plant some. What are the key points of bayberry cultivation techniques?

1. Select seedlings

When selecting seedlings, try to choose the ones with more exuberant roots, luxuriant branches and leaves and greener colors.

2. Temperature

Red bayberry has strong cold resistance, and the best growth environment is about 15-25 ℃. It can grow without any artificial heat preservation in the environment of about 9 ℃ below zero, but if the temperature is higher than 30 ℃, it will lead to suffocation.

3. Timely transplanting

Bayberry trees are generally transplanted in February-March in spring, which has a strong growth ability and can adapt to the new environment more quickly after transplanting.

4. Colonization

Before planting, dig a cave with a width of about 1 to 0.8 meters, and then apply a sufficient amount of farm manure, crop base fertilizer, or a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer. When planting, planting according to the distance between rows and plants at a distance of 5 to 4 meters can better carry out photosynthesis.

5. Post-planting management technology

(1) pruning and shaping: before planting, most of the branches and leaves should be pruned, leaving only the branches at the top of the middle, and then the branches of the cut branches and leaves should be protected and fixed, which is conducive to the rapid growth of new buds in the new environment. it also helps to 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.

(2) 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.

Generally speaking, red bayberry is well cultivated, and the main technical points are good temperature control, timely fertilization, reasonable pruning and so on.
