When will the avocado seeds be sown? How long does it take to sprout? What are the planting techniques?

The fruit of avocado is a kind of fruit with high nutritional value, which contains a variety of vitamins, rich fatty acids and protein and high contents of sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and other elements. its nutritional value is comparable to that of cream, and even has the laudatory name of "forest cream". Generally eaten as a fruit, it can also be made into dishes and cans. So, when will the avocado seeds be sown? How long does it take to sprout? What are the planting techniques?

When will the avocado seeds be sown?

Avocado seeds are planted in spring. When sowing, peel off the seed coat and sprout in a sand bed. Choose a place with deep soil layer, good drainage and shelter from the wind.

Second, how long will it sprout after planting?

The suitable row spacing of avocado is 5 * (6 ~ 7) meters, mixed planting of varieties can ensure pollination, seeds germinate after 30 ~ 40 days after sowing, and can be cultivated for planting or grafting for about one year.

Third, how to grow avocados?

1. Planting: when the avocado seedlings are 10 to 20 centimeters high, they are graded according to their size, and the row spacing is 30 × 60 centimeters. They are fully watered before moving, and try to be deep when digging to avoid root damage. The row spacing of the planted plants is 5 ~ 6 meters, and the grafted seedlings are fixed for 3 ~ 4 years or the seedlings bloom and bear fruit for 4 ~ 6 years.

2. Cover: avocado is a fruit tree growing in tropical rain forest and in competitive sunlight, and it grows rapidly in the environment of high temperature and humidity, so the cultivation of avocado abroad emphasizes growing grass or planting green manure near the plant in the early stage. and cover a lot near the rhizosphere.

3. Fertilization: avocado is routinely applied nitrogen fertilizer more than 4 times a year, usually by withdrawal or through irrigation system. 50 kg organic fertilizer per plant and 50 g compound fertilizer are applied to adult trees in young fruit stage, and the quantity is doubled after harvest.

4. Drainage: avocados need to keep the rhizosphere soil moist all the year round and are very sensitive to soil drought. once there is a lack of water, the physiological function is blocked and the tree is weak, resulting in falling leaves and fruit, and the cold resistance is reduced in winter, so proper irrigation is needed during drought. but pay attention to drainage in the rainy season.
