Planting method of "forest cream" avocado

Avocado is a kind of fruit with high nutritional value, which is called "forest cream". It is very popular in our country in recent years. So, what is the method of growing avocados? Let's get to know it together.

1. Raising seedlings

From the beginning of seedling cultivation, you need to buy avocado seeds with full fruit, and then put the tip of the seed up evenly in the soil after treatment, and then gently cover the seed with the soil. The sowing site must choose a place with plenty of light. And watering it every seven hours or so will usually sprout and grow seedlings in about two weeks, but now many people want to shorten the planting time and bear fruit as soon as possible. They all buy avocado saplings directly and start planting.

2. Transplanting

When the seedlings grow to about 40 centimeters, they can be transplanted. before planting, they need to dig holes according to the spacing of four to five meters per row and three to four meters per plant, and sprinkle a sufficient amount of base fertilizer. When transplanting, we must pay attention to transplanting the soil on the seedbed with the root of the avocado tree as much as possible, so that we can adapt to the environment after transplanting more quickly. It needs to be watered immediately after transplanting, which can improve its survival rate.

3. Lighting

Avocado is a tropical fruit, so the requirements for light and temperature are relatively high. In many parts of our country, it is impossible to grow because the planting conditions are not suitable, because the seasons and temperature change greatly in most parts of our country. In the process of its growth, it is necessary to ensure that it has at least eight hours of sunshine in a day, otherwise it is difficult to survive, let alone the result. In order to ensure the normal results of avocados.

4. Management

The growing period of avocado is relatively long, and it usually takes the fifth year to bear fruit, and the management during its growing period is very important, including fertilization, watering, loosening soil, pruning and so on. Avocado trees need a large amount of nutrients for their growth. During the period of young trees, we usually mainly use potash and phosphate fertilizer and use appropriate amount of nitrogen fertilizer, because avocado trees are particularly sensitive to nitrogen fertilizer. In particular, there is a lot of damage to its roots, so the use of nitrogen fertilizer is generally relatively small, and then slowly increase with the growth of the tree. Avocado growth needs sufficient water and should be watered regularly. as long as you see the soil drying, you should replenish water as long as you can keep the soil moisture around 60% as far as possible. each watering, fertilization and loosening are best combined. This is conducive to the growth of the plant, and finally, it is necessary to prune the avocado tree properly, which can ensure the light it needs.

5. Pollination

The pollination of avocado is the key to the yield of avocado, it needs two plants to pollinate each other, and it is usually planted in herringbone when planting, so the success rate of pollination is much higher when the wind blows over. Secondly, artificial pollination can be used, usually pollen collection is carried out on a sunny day, and then artificial spraying is carried out in the morning after manual treatment, so that the probability of pollination is relatively high. If the pollination rate of growers is low, you can try artificial pollination.

The above is the avocado planting method, I hope it can help you!
