The cause and method of root cutting of the latest mango

Many growers only know how to prune mangoes, such as pruning during the growing period, spring pruning or winter pruning, but in fact, roots can be cut off for plants that do not bear fruit. Root cutting can make mango grow and develop better and help to increase yield. Let's take a look at the reasons and methods of mango root cutting with Xiaobian.

1. The cause of mango root cutting.

The mango tree does not bear fruit, and the tree is weak, usually starting from the root system, which has the same meaning for root pruning and aboveground pruning. Root cutting means pruning the root system of the plant, which is the same as the short cut on the tree. After root cutting, a large number of new roots will grow from the wound, one root will become multiple roots, the old root will also become new roots, and the number of roots will increase, so that the plant's ability to absorb nutrients will naturally be enhanced. The root system of mango is graded, the original old root will evolve into transport and follow, and the main function is to transport nutrients, while the new root after root cutting is called growing root, and the growing root is the absorbing mother root, which will continue to grow and absorb root. On the other hand, the life of absorbing root is short, and only when the growing root grows continuously, the plant will not suffer from nutrient deficiency.

2. Root-cutting order

Mango is a deep root crop with developed main roots and few lateral roots. root cutting is often used to control the vegetative growth of branches and shoots, which is beneficial to fruit development. The purpose of root cutting is to reduce the absorption of water and nutrients by roots and promote root growth.

3. Root-cutting method

In winter, combined with deep turning to improve the soil, dig a ring groove about 60 cm deep and 30 cm wide under the vertical line of the crown, cut off the thick roots of the lower layer, use the sun for 5-6 days, apply rotten organic fertilizer and cover it with topsoil. At the same time, 20 cm ploughing should be combined to cut off the absorption roots of topsoil, weaken the transport of water and nutrients by roots, increase the concentration of tree sap, benefit the accumulation of nutrients in aboveground parts and promote flower bud differentiation. Mango should be fertilized and loosened properly after root cutting, which is beneficial to the development of horizontal roots, but it is not suitable to inject too much water, which can make the roots accumulate more nutrients.
