How to plant fig trees

The cutting method can be used to plant fig trees. Specifically, in March and April in spring or in September and October in autumn, cut a strong cuttage, then insert it into the soil around 18cm, pour a small amount of water, put it in the place of scattered light and take root three or four days later. After growing roots and leaflets, transplant them to the garden at a distance of 2 meters.

Points for attention in planting fig trees:

1. Planting time

Because of the growth habits of figs, we need to pay attention to the planting time when planting figs. In most parts of our country, figs can be planted in two seasons. They are planted in March and April in spring and in September in autumn, when the survival rate of figs is higher.

2. Methods of reproduction

Figs can reproduce on their own, so we should pay attention to transplanting the root tillers of figs after reproduction, so that the planted figs are very easy to feed, and secondly, figs can also be reproduced by striping. When pressing, we should pay attention to pulling down the relatively strong branches in spring and burying them in the soil, and then they will grow roots at a certain time, and then they can be transplanted. Finally, cuttings can also be used for propagation, but the branches should be soaked with carbendazim before cutting, which can improve the survival rate.

3. Growth temperature

Fig growth temperature is required, so in the process of planting, we need to pay attention to temperature regulation. Generally, when planting, we need to control the temperature in the field at about 20 to 25 degrees, so that we can survive in about three to four days. Secondly, the lowest temperature of fig planting can not be lower than five degrees, otherwise you will be frostbitten, and the second is that the maximum temperature can not be higher than 38 degrees. It is best to keep the average temperature around 18 to 20 degrees throughout the year.

4. Planting density

The growth of figs needs enough light, and the second is that figs have a strong ability to reproduce themselves, so when planting, they need to be planted at a distance of three meters between rows and about two meters between plants, so that the permeability in the field will be better. at the same time, it is also convenient for later field operation, and the yield and quality of figs are guaranteed.

5. Water and fertilizer management

Water and fertilizer management is a critical step for all planting species, which can directly affect the yield and quality of plants, as well as figs. The most important thing to pay attention to in the water and fertilizer management of figs is to manage according to the growth stage of fig trees. first of all, during the period of young trees, we mainly promote the life and storage of branches and leaves, so we can use farm manure or nitrogen fertilizer to promote growth. At least four or five times a year, fruit trees need to be fertilized at the beginning of spring, when they blossom and bear fruit, and after fruit harvest. Each fertilization can be combined with watering, which can not only avoid damage to fruit trees, but also improve the efficiency of nutrient absorption.

6. Field management

The pruning of branches and leaves is very necessary in the process of fig growth. First of all, we should prune the fig tree to promote its branch growth when it grows to a certain period, while the middle pruning is to maintain the permeability of the field, but the later pruning is to increase the yield of figs. The second is to cultivate the soil before it is impossible, so that we can have a certain degree of anti-freezing effect, at the same time, we can whiten the main branches, which can also reduce the damage of some pests to fruit trees.

The above is the introduction of how to plant fig trees. I hope it will be helpful to you.
