Melon is one of the fruits we often eat in summer. It is small and sweet, one at a time. It is precisely because of the rising market demand that more and more people are growing melons. So do you know the efficient cultivation techniques of muskmelon? Let's have a look!

1. Efficient cultivation techniques of muskmelon

Muskmelon can be cultivated in the greenhouse, the temperature should be kept between 28-32 ℃, properly lowered at night, 18-20 ℃ is suitable. The base fertilizer is mainly calcium superphosphate, ammonium bicarbonate and cake fertilizer. Artificial pollination should be carried out during the melon protection period, which can ensure that the melon is sweet and deformed, and the growth regulator is sprayed to speed up the expansion.

Second, how to prune

1. Leave 3 vines. When the seedlings grow to 4 true leaves, three strong vines are selected, one of which leaves melon on the vine node, the other two vines have 3-4 leaves, each leaves a grandson vine, and 3-4 leaves are left in front of the melon. Generally, 3-5 melons are left per plant, and 30 functional leaves are needed for the whole plant.

2. Artificial pollination. Dip the male flower with a brush, and then put the pollen on the female flower stigma. This method is troublesome, labor-consuming, and the effect is not ideal. The expansion speed of melons is slow, but the melons produced are uniform, sweet and deformed.

3. Spray the growth regulator of Zigualing. When the temperature is about 25 ℃, foliar spraying (concentration is subject to product description), this method is relatively simple, easy to operate, high fruit setting rate, fast expansion, early ripening and high yield.

4. Field management. To strengthen the prevention and control of fertilizer, water, diseases and insect pests, the suitable growth temperature should be controlled at 25-28 degrees and the moisture should be controlled at about 50 percent.

5. Timely harvest. Yellow and white muskmelon can be harvested and put on the market after 6-7 minutes of ripening.
