Common five kinds of melon vegetables should stay which melon is good?

When we buy vegetable seeds, we often encounter such a situation, such as too many seeds, the price is too expensive, buy a big bag but can not use so many, do not buy it and panic. Therefore, it is also a good choice to keep your own seeds, so which melon should you keep in the five common melons and vegetables?

1. Cucumber

The early maturity of seed melon progeny left on different parts of cucumber plant is different. The prematurity of the second and third melon is not as early as that of the first melon, but the temperature of the first melon is low, the pollination is often not good, and the seeds are small and few. artificial pollination should be carried out to improve the quantity and quality of seeds. The seeds of the second melon and the third melon are both plump and plentiful, so the first melon should be reserved for seed selection with the goal of early maturity, and the second or third melon can be selected for seed in the field.

2. Wax gourd

Wax gourd seed retention, early-maturing varieties and mid-late-maturing varieties are different. The first melon should be kept in the early-maturing variety in order to maintain its early maturity and to select the plant with more female flowers. The second melon should be left in the middle and late maturing varieties, only 1 melon per plant, and all other female flowers and young fruits on the plant should be removed. After the melon is ripe, it can be ripe indoors for 1-2 months.

3. Towel gourd

Towel gourd seed should be left root gourd, because the root gourd fruit early, long growth time, full seeds, offspring also early melon. However, if the long towel gourd leaves root gourd as a kind of melon, it is easy to rot on the ground because the planting melon is too long, so the melon formed on the shelf of the melon vine should be left to make a kind of melon, and the shape of the melon should be as thick as the two ends of the slender towel gourd. Leave the melon until the skin turns brown, harden and dry, harvest, and ripen indoors.

4. Balsam pear

Balsam pear leaves the fruit shape at the base of the plant and has the characteristics of this variety to be used as seed. Harvest when the top of the fruit turns red, take out the seeds, wash them and dry them.

5. Bottle gourd

Bottle gourd seed should select the second melon with strong disease resistance, harvest the first melon as soon as possible, and pick all the rest of the young melons and female flowers. There is only one melon per plant, until the pericarp is hard and yellowish brown can be harvested.

In addition, the matters needing attention to keep farming are:

Leave the fields and strictly pick up the miscellaneous to get rid of the bad. After heading, the field as a planned seed should be observed as soon as possible to observe the uniformity of the field, in line with the seed, the possible different plants in the field can be uprooted. If the mixture is serious, it cannot be reserved for farming. If you want to stay, you can only choose by ear.
