The latest planting method of Phoenix eye fruit

Phoenix eye fruit is also known as Apple Po, the seeds of Phoenix eye fruit can be eaten, and the taste after ripening is similar to that of Chinese chestnut. Originated in Asia, Phoenix eye fruit is used in the cooking of various dishes in Guangdong and other regions. It tastes sweet and delicious, and has the functions of warming stomach, killing insects, treating stomachache and so on. And it is also a kind of fruit tree with high ornamental value, so how to plant Phoenix eye fruit? The following editor brings you the planting method of Phoenix eye fruit, let's have a look!

1. Sowing and raising seedlings

Phoenix eye fruit is originally a wild tree species, its adaptability is relatively strong, and the requirement for soil is not high, so we only need to choose soft, deep and fertile soil when planting. When the Phoenix eye fruit will automatically crack when it is ripe, we have to take the seeds out of the fruit. The seeds should not be exposed to the sun after they are taken out to prevent the evaporation of seed water and affect the germination of seeds. The humidity of the nursery bed should not be too high, as long as the hands are grasped into a ball without leakage. It is also necessary to disinfect the seeds and seedling beds before sowing, and mainly do a good job of shading and moisturizing after sowing. Seedlings can emerge after a week, and then when the seedlings grow to about 30 cm, they can be transplanted and planted in early spring.

2. Transplanting and planting

As I just said, the time for Phoenix eye fruit transplanting should be in spring, and attention should be paid to avoid seedling injury when transplanting. Especially the root, try to avoid root cutting, otherwise it will have a certain impact on the growth of Phoenix eyes. Before planting, we should first plan the planting density and dig the planting hole, and then carry out the work of soil preparation, finishing fine rake, applying sufficient base fertilizer, the base fertilizer is mainly fully mature farm manure, and a small amount of chemical fertilizer can be added to improve soil fertility. Promote the growth of seedlings after planting, enhance the absorption of nutrients and increase the yield.

3. Field management

Phoenix eye fruit likes to grow in a humid environment, and its drought resistance is very poor, so in the growth process of Phoenix eye fruit, especially during the flowering and fruiting period, it is necessary to water frequently to keep the soil moist. In summer and other high-temperature and dry seasons, it is best to irrigate the whole tree to promote the flowering and fruiting of the tree and improve the fruit rate. Due to the strong branching ability of Phoenix eye fruit, we also need proper shaping and pruning, intercepting the upper part of the branch, promoting the germination and growth of lateral branches, and shaping the tree into an oval shape to facilitate later management and harvest. After harvest, the branches that are too long and too dense, old and weak, and diseases and insect pests should be cut off to improve the permeability of the crown.

4. Pest control

The pest control of Phoenix eye fruit is very important, among which the common diseases and insect pests are anthrax, wood lice and so on. Diseases and insect pests will cause harm to the various organs of Phoenix eye fruit trees, resulting in growth hindrance, poor nutrition absorption, which is not conducive to flowering and fruiting. Therefore, we should strengthen field management, do a good job in environmental sanitation, centrally clean up fallen leaves and fruits out of the countryside, and reduce the source of infection. Then disinfect the countryside regularly, eliminate germs and insect eggs, prepare control agents for diseases and insect pests, prevent sudden diseases and insect pests, check orchards regularly, and achieve early detection and early treatment of diseases and insect pests.

The above is a brief introduction to the planting method of Phoenix eye fruit, and we still have a lot of points for attention when planting it. For example, water and fertilizer management, mid-ploughing and weeding are in fact the basic management work that we need to do well. as long as we do a good job in these management work, can we ensure the normal growth of Phoenix fruit and improve the rate of blossom and fruit. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
