1. Garden site selection

The mysterious fruit is native to the tropics, has a high organic content, and has a strong ability to preserve soil moisture. The soil needs to be sour or neutral, so it is suitable to be planted at low elevations in the subtropics. Tropical plants also have high requirements for temperature. The average temperature every day should reach about 25 degrees, and in winter it should reach more than 10 degrees, and the minimum should not be less than 5 degrees. Otherwise, frost damage will occur. The garden should be far away from noisy places such as urban areas, major roads and factories, and the water should be adequate and clean. It is best to choose to build a garden on leeward slopes to the south or southeast.

2. Seedling planting

The planting time of mystery fruit seedlings needs to be planted in spring and autumn. pay attention to the density during planting. The row spacing between each plant should be determined according to the plant size, the average row spacing of each plant is 1.5 × 2 meters, and the planting hole is 40 × 40 × 40 cm high, deep and wide. Before planting, base fertilizer is applied to the planting hole according to the fertility of the soil, usually mixed with compound fertilizer, organic fertilizer and surface soil, and then put into the planting hole. Then put about 10 centimeters of soil on the base fertilizer to prevent the seedling roots from touching the base fertilizer and causing retting. After planting, you should pile up a planting pier at the base of the tree, step on it with your feet, and keep the soil moist within ten days after planting. Then decide whether to replenish water according to the humidity.

3. Fertilizer and water management

Mysterious fruit is a fruit that is more than one year old, it can blossom and bear fruit many times a year, so there is a great demand for fertilizer. Compound fertilizer should be used scientifically in seedling stage, and a small amount of fertilizer should be applied in combination with foliar fertilizer to effectively promote the development of fruit seedlings. For adult fruit trees, organic fertilizer and compound fertilizer should be used together, nitrogen fertilizer should be used reasonably to promote the growth of branches and shoots, and nitrogen fertilizer should not be applied randomly. Using compound fertilizer combined with potassium dihydrogen phosphate to protect fruit and strong fruit, mysterious fruit has a relatively large demand for water. After planting, it is necessary to maintain soil moisture and keep branches and leaves moist by spraying water. In order to prevent summer temperature from being too high and water evaporation, it is also necessary to do a good job in preserving soil moisture and strengthening water management.

4. Shaping and pruning

When the mysterious fruit does not enter the prosperous period, prune it and pay attention not to re-pruning, because at this time, it is mainly to promote growth and stereotyping, generally using natural happy shape for pruning, combined with wiping buds and fixing shoots, etc., the reasonable distribution of branches, the selection of buds with strong growth and robust growth directions as side branches, and the removal of other dense branches and long branches is beneficial to the short cutting work in the periphery. After harvesting in winter, it is necessary to remove all bad branches such as diseases and insect pests and over-dense branches in time, which is conducive to the growth of mysterious fruits.

The above is the editor's brief introduction on how to grow mysterious fruit. I hope it can help the growers!
