Shatian grapefruit seedlings market price is 3 yuan, so the specific price still needs to go to the local market to check.

Third, how to plant grapefruit seedlings?

1. Select the place

Grapefruit seedlings like to grow in places with fertile soil, drainage and good ventilation, so when selecting land, it is best to choose sandy loam or sandy yellow loam with medium soil fertility, and generally can be planted on gentle slopes or hilltops with water.

2. Land preparation

Before sowing, deep ploughing and drying soil should be done, and drainage ditches should be made around the nursery. Generally, the border is 1.2 meters wide, 15 centimeters high and 40 centimeters wide, so as to facilitate later planting. In addition, a few days before sowing, 150 kilograms of plant ash or farm manure are applied per mu to ensure adequate soil fertilizer.

3. Sowing seeds

The main results are as follows: (1) the sowing time is the best from September to December or the following spring. Generally, the seeds can be sowed as soon as they are received, or the seeds can be stored in sand for sowing in the following spring.

(2) sowing method: open the cross ditch of the seedling land, and then put in the seedlings. Generally, it is best to sow 15,18kg seedlings per mu, and the seedlings are slowly covered with soil, and then put a small amount of rice straw, fern grass and so on to promote seed germination.

4. Seedling management

(1) fertilization: when the seedlings grow two dark green true leaves, a small amount of thin fertilizer can be applied appropriately, generally once a half month, about 7 times in a row, according to the growth state of the seedlings, poultry fertilizer or nitrogen fertilizer, potash fertilizer and so on can be added appropriately to promote the nutrient adequacy of seedlings.

(2) grafting: after the seedlings have grown for one year (30cm to 50cm high), they can be planted directly or used as rootstock seedlings for grafted seedlings.

(3) pruning: after the planting is successful, the young trees with single stem shape should be trimmed from the 50cm high above the ground to promote the emergence of new shoots, and then leave 3 or 5 uniformly distributed new shoots in different directions as the main branches, and then cultivate 3 secondary main branches on the main branches, and cultivate lateral branch groups on the secondary main branches, each branch length 15~23cm, the angle is not enough to pull line shaping.

5. Adult tree management

When grapefruit becomes a tree, we only need to do a good job of water and fertilizer management, and generally do a good job of fertilizer management in four stages: post-harvest fertilizer, pre-flowering fertilizer, stable fruit fertilizer and shoot-promoting fertilizer.

The main results are as follows: (1) Fertilizer after fruit harvest: general organic fertilizer is main, nitrogen fertilizer is supplementary, compound fertilizer and farm manure can be applied. For those with large amount of fruit and weak tree potential, a small amount of quick-acting fertilizer can be applied one week before fruit harvest to promote growth.

(2) pre-flowering fertilizer: generally fertilized in late January, mainly available nitrogen fertilizer, usually 1 kg calcium fertilizer and 5 kg urea can be applied to each plant, and hole sowing should be adopted as far as possible to ensure sufficient fertilizer.

(3) stable fruit fertilizer: generally fertilized in the first ten days of April, and mainly nitrogen fertilizer, a small amount of potash fertilizer or compound fertilizer can be applied according to the growth of the tree to promote fruit expansion.

(4) Fruit fertilizer: generally fertilized from July to August, and mainly nitrogen fertilizer, compound fertilizer and calcium fertilizer can be properly applied to promote early ripening of fruit.

6. Harvest

The harvest is generally the best from late October to mid-late November. Because after the Autumn Equinox, the pomelo peel will gradually change from turquoise to yellow, and finally to yellowish green to orange, while the grapefruit pulp becomes soft, the flavor is thick and sweet, and it is more suitable for picking.

Fourth, how many years does it take to plant a grapefruit tree to bear fruit?

Grapefruit trees generally begin to bear fruit in 8 ~ 10 years, grafted trees bear fruit in 4 ~ 5 years, and enter the full fruit stage 1 ~ 2 years after the first fruit. the grafted trees of 5 ~ 7-year-old Fructus Aurantii produce 1550kg and 50kg in 8 ~ 10 years.

Editor's conclusion: the price of grapefruit seedlings varies, which is generally related to the origin and variety, so try to go to the local market when buying. In addition, if you want to plant grapefruit seedlings well, you need to do a good job in basic management such as water, fertilizer, pruning and so on, so that the seedlings can have a bumper harvest in the coming year!
