There are many varieties of pomelo, and pomelo is one of them, among which Changshan pomelo is more famous. It is rich in a variety of vitamins and 16 kinds of amino acids and trace elements needed by the human body. It has high nutritional value, and its endoplasm is full, crisp and juicy. It also has the effect of cooling and dispelling fire, relieving cough and resolving phlegm. So how to grow pomelo? Let's take a look.

1. Select land for afforestation

Pomelo is a subtropical evergreen fruit tree, with the characteristics of barren and cold tolerance, its strong growth, extensive management, lax requirements for soil, generally choose convenient transportation, good drainage mountain or basin bottom can be afforestation. Soil preparation is carried out before planting, and basic fertilizer is applied at the same time, generally applying 3000-5000 kg of farm manure per mu, digging planting holes.

2. Colonization

Hu pomelo growth is strong, the crown is huge, generally grafted trees will enter the full fruit period in 6-7 years, so the planting density should not be too dense, generally planting 35-45 trees per mu. Generally in March or November in spring, it is better to plant in the middle and first ten days of March, it should be carried out in cloudy or sunny evening, and it is not suitable to plant in rainy days or too wet soil. In addition, it should be noted that pomelo has the ability of parthenocarpy, without pollination can also produce seedless too wet, but cross-pollination fruit setting rate is high, the fruit is also relatively large, so it is necessary to configure an appropriate number of pollination trees.

3. Shaping and pruning

When the trunk of the young tree grows to about 0.5 meters, the trunk should be fixed, the main branch of the young tree should be cultivated and the secondary main should be selected, and the flower buds should be removed in time to reduce the nutrient consumption of the tree. The height of the plant is controlled at 1.5-15 meters, so that the crown is compact and the tree shape opens, and then the main branches and secondary main branches are cultivated to extend the branches, so that the branches are slightly evenly distributed, ventilated, and grow healthily. In the full fruit period, it is necessary to carry out auxiliary pruning work, such as wiping buds and controlling shoots, coring, cutting off overgrown branches, dead branches, disease and insect branches and so on.

4. Pest control

Pomelo rarely occurs diseases and insect pests, generally scale insects harm fruit leaves from July to August, and mites, aphids and drillers harm branches and leaves from May to September. Prevention should give priority to prevention. Scale insects can be propagated with dimethoate in late March and sprayed every 7-10 days for 3 times in a row. In April, dimethoate and permethrin can be used to control mites, aphids, drillworms, etc.
