The latest course of planting techniques and methods of mandarin

Mandarin, also known as Ponkan, is the most common kind of citrus in our daily life. the skin of mandarin is thin and the taste is sour. However, it has a high nutritional value, and can give birth to fluid and quench thirst, diuresis and stomachache, and so on. And comprehensive nutrition, containing a variety of vitamins and minerals, is very popular in our daily life. So how to grow mandarins? Today, the editor brings you the planting technology of mandarin. Let's have a look!

1. Select the place

Mandarin root system is more developed, the tree shape is also relatively large, so the soil has a deep soft, sufficient fertility and other requirements, the soil PH value should also be controlled at about 6. Orchards should not be built on steep slopes, orchards should be planned reasonably, and roads, irrigation and drainage systems and various ancillary construction should be planned to facilitate the growth and management of mandarin in the later stage. It is necessary to ensure that there is sufficient water around, and the transportation is convenient and convenient for transportation. The planting time of mandarin is usually around October and early spring and February every year. Choosing a reasonable planting time is beneficial to promote the growth of mandarin.

2. Land preparation and planting

After selecting a good site, we should do a good job in soil preparation. Mandarin needs a large amount of fertilizer, so we have to dig deep into the soil to expand the planting hole. And apply sufficient base fertilizer to mature the soil and improve the soil fertility. After soil preparation, dig the planting hole and control the specification of the planting hole. When planting, the roots of the seedlings should be trimmed properly, and then spread evenly into the planting hole, do not squeeze the roots. Then slowly lift the seedlings while filling the soil and gently compact them with their feet so that the roots are in full contact with the soil. Watering in time after planting, making a good tree plate, covering plastic film, and improving the water and fertilizer conservation of soil.

3. Fertilizer and water management

The nutritional needs of mandarins are more comprehensive, so we should strengthen the proportion of nutrients in fertilizers to meet the nutritional needs of mandarins. When fertilizing, apply more organic fertilizer, reduce or not use chemical fertilizer, and make a reasonable proportion of fertilizer formula. And we also need to apply fertilizer according to the leaves, soil conditions and the growth stage of mandarin. The water demand of mandarin is relatively large, so we have to cooperate with watering when fertilizing. However, the moisture should not be too much, it should be drained in time when it is rainy, but the orchard should also be watered well when it is dry.

4. Shaping and pruning

There are different methods of shaping and pruning in all stages of mandarin growth, and it is always a good job to be done. For example, in young trees, it is necessary to control pruning, such as light pruning, and choose the central extended branches to cut short with various main and auxiliary branches. Adjust the growth direction of the main branch and promote the growth. Then it will be adjusted properly according to the growth stage in the later stage to ensure proper pruning. If it is not pruned in time, the branches are intricate, resulting in a decline in permeability, which is not conducive to flowering and fruiting, and reduces the economic benefits of planting.

The above is a brief introduction of mandarin planting technology, the planting of mandarin takes a long time to harvest, so we need to have a certain degree of patience. However, we can also carry out intercropping in orchards to reduce planting costs. But intercropping plants should not be tall plants to avoid blocking the sun from the trees.
