The latest method of orange ring cutting and matters needing attention

The ring cutting method is often used in citrus fruit preservation, which separates the phloem of the plant trunk and the main branch, intercepts nutrients, and inhibits the growth of the root system under the condition of temporary lack of water and fertilizer, thus inhibiting the emergence of summer shoots. reduce the risk of fruit drop caused by competition for water and fertilizer. So how to cut the sugar orange in a ring? Let's get to know it.

1. Selection of ring-cutting plants.

When ring-cutting the sugar orange, we should first select the appropriate plant, not every sugar orange is suitable for ring-cutting, we should choose the tree with strong tree strength, thick green leaves, fully mature spring shoots and the trend of summer shoots. On the other hand, for the weak plants with poor management, insufficient nutrition and serious diseases and insect pests, it is not suitable for ring cutting, which may further weaken the tree potential and reduce the yield seriously.

2. Suitable time and method

Fruit preservation after Xiehua should be treated differently according to tree strength and the amount of flowers. Generally, fruit trees with exuberant growth and less flowers are generally treated twice, the first time at the end of Xiehua, together at the end of physiological fruit drop. Ring cutting is recommended to cut 2/3 of the big branch or the main branch, and the big branch in the middle and lower part of the crown is not cut. After the sugar orange ring is cut, the wound can be healed half a month, and the half moon ring cut once, while the ring cut wound needs 30-50 to heal, the fruit protection effect is better, one ring cutting can achieve the purpose of fruit protection.

3. Matters needing attention in ring cutting

Ring cutting must be carried out with other agricultural techniques, and if fertilization management is ignored after ring cutting, the tree will weaken and the yield will decline, so in ring cutting, we should pay attention to the level of fertilization and planting growth potential to determine whether to cut and the times of ring cutting. Too many times of ring cutting too early, too much fruit protection, tree potential decline, and even plant death; while too many times of ring cutting prematurely, it is easy to appear the phenomenon of big and small years. Many fruit growers begin to cut around after Xiehua, once in 10-15 days, or even in the second peak of physiological fruit drop, it is very easy for spring shoots to turn green, the result is too large, autumn shoots can not come out, the formation of large and small years.
