What's the use of the latest dragon fruit pruning?

Dragon fruit is a typical tropical fruit, which has a great market demand in our country. The planting area in our country is also very large, when planting dragon fruit, the management work is very important. Especially the pruning work, reasonable pruning is the key to ensure the yield of dragon fruit. So what is the use of dragon fruit planting and pruning? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Improve permeability

Fire dragon fruit is more sunny because it is a kind of tropical fruit. In the environment of strong light, the flowering and fruiting of dragon fruit is very good. The fruit rate of the outer strip is high, but the growth of dragon fruit is relatively strong, easy to sprout and appear layered crown, the mutual concealment between the strips is more serious. As a result, the inner branches were not exposed to enough light, which seriously affected the growth of dragon fruit. Therefore, reasonable pruning can reasonably retain branches and control crown shape. Improve the permeability between branches, promote the dragon fruit to form a strong fruiting mother branch, and increase the yield of dragon fruit.

2. Exchange of vegetative branches and fruiting branches

The buds of dragon fruit branches are mainly mixed buds, which can sprout a large number of branch buds and flower buds, which can improve the quality of single fruit and promote the development of fruit. Branches are divided into vegetative branches and fruiting branches, and the sturdy, full and suitable length branches are fruiting branches. Generally, the branch of the whole plant is about 2 stroke and 3, and the other branches can be used as vegetative branches. The reserved branches germinated in the same year can be cultivated into vegetative branches, and they can also be used as fruiting branches in the second year. After the flower bud of the fruit branch is removed, it can be transformed into a vegetative branch, and after the vegetative branch reserves the flower bud, it can be transformed into a fruiting branch. The two kinds of branches can replace each other, which can effectively improve the performance of the results.

3. The contradiction of regulating vegetative growth and reproductive growth.

The time of hanging fruit, the amount of fruit and the size of fruit are the main reasons that affect the yield of dragon fruit. The single fruit development time of dragon fruit is generally not very long, but the reproductive growth time of trees is relatively long. The coexistence of large and small fruits, red and green fruits and flower buds can be seen on a hanging fruit branch. Therefore, there is a serious contradiction of nutrition competition. Therefore, we can effectively regulate the contradiction between reproductive growth and vegetative growth by thinning flowers and fruits and pruning. Keep the dragon fruit in the middle of the tree, so that it forms a sufficient nutritional area.

4. Pest control

After reasonable pruning, the tree potential is obviously enhanced, and it also improves the ability of disease resistance and natural disaster resistance of the tree. Reduce the incidence of diseases and insect pests to achieve the role of pest control. Moreover, when we are pruning, the main object of pruning is to cut off diseased branches, weak branches and so on. This is also one of the main measures to control diseases and insect pests.

The above is a brief introduction to what is the use of dragon fruit pruning. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
