How to grow the latest sapphire grapes

Sapphire grape, also known as moonlight tears, is a medium-ripe variety in grape cultivation. Sapphire pulp is full, juicy, seedless, crisp sweet without residue, is the best in grapes. Its nutritional value is at least 10 times higher than that of ordinary grapes. Aziger is generally kept at 30 to 50 yuan per jin in the market, and it can also be sold at a high price of 120 yuan per jin. So how to grow sapphire grapes? Is there any difference between ordinary grape cultivation and ordinary grape cultivation? Let's take a look at its planting method.

1. Planting preparation

Sapphire has the characteristics of high yield and easy cultivation. It has strong adaptability to soil, and it can be planted in general soil, but it is best in the soil rich in organic matter. Then we first need soil preparation and ridging, soil preparation is divided into deep turning of the whole garden and ditching along the road, during soil preparation, we need to apply sufficient organic fertilizer as base fertilizer, and mix organic fertilizer with mature soil well.

2. Cultivation methods

The best time for sapphire planting is in spring, and we can use direct seeding and grafted seedlings. But if it is a grafted seedling, you need to erase the buds of the rootstock before planting, remove the binding film, and then you can plant. When planting, it is generally planted along the line, and the distance of each plant is generally about 70 centimeters. After planting, you need to pour water, then continue to fill the soil, finally cover a layer of straw and water thoroughly, and then cover with a layer of plastic film.

3. Soil, fertilizer and water management

After planting, in order to promote the growth of sapphire grape seedlings, we need to water every other week or so, each time we need to apply an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer, and spray foliar fertilizer every half a month or so. We can spread a layer of grass in the field all the year round, and when the dead grass decays, it will produce nitrogen, which is absorbed by the soil and used to promote plant growth.

4. Build a frame to prune

When the sapphire grape seedlings grow to about one meter, we need to start building the scaffolding and pulling the grape seedlings to the scaffolding to let them crawl on the scaffolding. Secondly, the pruning technique of sapphire seedlings is also very important. first of all, we need to cultivate two main vines, and then promote the growth of lateral vines, which can increase the yield of sapphires. Secondly, we also need to carry out winter pruning to make it grow into big ears after branching, which is what we often call the technique of pruning small dragons.

5. Flower and fruit management

The management of flowering and fruit stage is mainly to promote flower bud, flower and fruit protection and flower thinning and fruit thinning. In order to have many and strong spikes and form full flower buds, we need to fertilize and water before flowering, and reasonably regulate foliar fertilizer, promote the growth of prepared branches, and pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. Secondly, in order to protect flowers and fruits, we should balance fertilization, cooperate with the use of micro-fertilizer, and carry out artificial pollination and temperature control. Reasonable in the flowering period will be too dense and more fragile flowers for dredging, about 20 days after fruit setting, reasonable fruit thinning, and the use of bagging technology to control diseases and insect pests.

The above is what the editor would like to introduce to you today, the planting method of sapphire grapes. I hope it will be of all help to you. If you want to know more about sapphires, you can follow us or leave a message for the editor.
