The latest Seedling method of Blueberry

Blueberries, also known as toots and tomatoes, are small fruits of a shrub originating in North America. Blueberries are rich in anthocyanins and other nutrients needed by the human body, which can prevent brain aging, strengthen and protect vision, strengthen the heart, soften blood vessels and enhance human immunity. How do blueberries usually grow? Today we are mainly going to learn about blueberry breeding methods.

1. Selection of seedling land

Blueberry has certain requirements for planting land. Under normal circumstances, soil rich in organic matter and soil pH of 4.0~5.5 will be selected. Moreover, the drainage irrigation system near the planting land is perfect, the transportation is developed, and it is far away from pollution sources. Soil preparation is deep ploughing, the soil should be fine and the impurities in the seedling field should be cleaned up. Finally, it is necessary to configure the substrate for seedling before seedling raising, apply base fertilizer, and carry out the next step after everything is ready.

2, seedling time

We usually raise seedlings in the spring of each year, which is the most vigorous time of blueberry vitality, so the emergence rate and survival rate will be much higher. The best time to grow seedlings in spring is between February and April each year. Of course, when raising seedlings, the soil temperature of the planting area should be at least ten degrees Celsius, otherwise the germination speed will be very slow.

3, seedling method

There are four methods of blueberry seedling, namely seed propagation, cuttage propagation, plant division propagation and grafting propagation. At present, the most commonly used methods are seed seedlings and cutting jade seedlings, which have higher survival rates and superior blueberry quality. Seed seedlings need to be treated with variable temperature and soaked with gibberellin to improve the germination rate of seeds. Cuttage seedlings are selected without pests and diseases of fine varieties of strong branches, and then cut into five or six centimeters long section, with a press to deal with the fracture can be seedlings. In addition, ramet propagation is generally to select new plants from the mother plant, dig them in late autumn, cultivate them, and plant them in spring. Blueberry grafting is done the same way as any other fruit tree grafting, by selecting the drill wood and scion.

4. Seedling management

Now after seedling, we need to water frequently to keep the soil moist and promote blueberry roots and new seedling growth. However, the amount of watering should not be too large. If the temperature of the nursery is high, then we need to wait for the temperature to drop before watering, otherwise it will affect the growth of blueberry seedlings. And what we should pay attention to is that in May and June, we should pay more attention to water management. Nutrient management is also very important in the seedling stage. Under normal circumstances, we cannot apply fertilizer casually. If we want to promote the growth of seedlings in the future, it is best to apply appropriate liquid fertilizer once a week. At the same time, seagulls should combine watering when applying fertilizer.
