When is the best time to plant cucumbers? What are the high-yield planting techniques?

Cucumber is one of the staple vegetables in summer in China, which can be eaten and used medicinally. with the development of planting technology, cucumber can also be planted in greenhouse and greenhouse. When is the best time to plant cucumbers? What are the high-yield planting techniques?

I. the relevant situation of cucumbers

1. Yield per mu of cucumber

The yield of cucumber is not only affected by regions and varieties, but also different in different seasons. For example, the normal yield of cucumber per mu in spring is about 15000 jin. The normal yield of cucumber per mu in autumn is about 12000 jin.

two。 The price of cucumbers

At present, the price of fresh cucumber in Hongxing and Mawangdui market in Changsha is 5 yuan / kg, that in Jishou market is 5 yuan / kg, and that in Changde is 6 yuan / kg.

The seed price of original cucumber in Shouguang, Shandong Province is 130 yuan per bag, and that of hybrid cucumber in Wuhan, Hubei Province is 25 yuan per bag, 23 yuan per bag for 2-4 bags, and 20 yuan per bag for more than 5 bags.

3. Planting Prospect of Cucumber

Cucumber is rich in protein and vitamins, which can detoxify and prevent constipation, supplement vitamins and prevent diabetes. In addition, its fruit, seedling, peel and root all have certain medicinal effects; in addition, export, processing, ornamental and so on, the future planting prospect of cucumber is also very good.

When is the best time to plant cucumbers?

The planting time of cucumber is not uniform, and the time is also different according to different regions and varieties.

1. The planting time of spring cucumber is when the spring cucumber is planted on March 3 of the spring lunar calendar, that is, it can be planted in a climate with a suitable temperature. The cucumber temperature is about 25 degrees, and the night temperature is about 16 degrees. Basically, the ground temperature is about 22 degrees. Areas such as Beijing, Tianjin and Shijiazhuang generally choose to plant after late April.

two。 Autumn cucumber is generally sown about 70 days before Frosts Descent, and seedling transplanting can be carried out 7-10 days in advance.

Third, what are the high-yield planting techniques of cucumber?

Cucumber planting can choose to fall to the ground, greenhouse planting and greenhouse planting, although greenhouse planting can basically be carried out all the year round, but we should pay attention to the following points to ensure high yield as much as possible.

1. Suitable temperature and light

Cucumber is a plant growing in temperate and tropical zones, so it can only be planted at a suitable temperature. generally, the lowest night temperature of open field planting is higher than 5 degrees; the greenhouse is 25-30 degrees during the day and 16-18 degrees at night; the greenhouse is 12-32 degrees; basically, the daily sunshine time for cucumber planting should be about 9 hours, which is more conducive to the growth and development, quality and yield of cucumbers.

two。 Suitable planting soil

It is very important to choose a more suitable soil for cucumber planting, and it is better to conform to cucumber growth habits. Basically, it is best to choose a slightly alkaline soil that is more fertile, loose, strong drainage and breathable, and the soil is more fertile. Fertilization can be reduced appropriately, because cucumber planting is relatively intolerant to fertilizer.

3. Appropriate amount of watering

The cucumber planted in the open field depends on the weather and growth period according to the amount of water and the number of times. Generally, the cucumber is watered once in 5-7 days in the slow seedling stage and fruiting period; the greenhouse is watered every 5-7 days, and the greenhouse is usually watered once in 5-7 days. If the air humidity is controlled at 60-80% during the day and 85-90% at night, there is no need to water.

The above is about the cucumber planting time and technical geese are all introduced, we should adjust according to their own actual situation, do not copy blindly.
