The latest course on planting techniques and methods of Waxberry

Red bayberry is a common fruit in the south. It tastes sweet and sour, has rich nutrition, and can be processed into canned food, jam, candied fruit and other foods with high economic value. So do you know how it is planted? The following pro-agricultural network brings the planting technology of red bayberry, let's take a look.

1. Select the place

Red bayberry is a barren fruit tree, so it can be planted in most plots, but it is most suitable for hillside plots near water sources and deep, fertile slightly acidic soil. At the same time, we should also pay attention to opening the mature period and listing it. Choose to plant mid-and late-maturing varieties between 400 and 800 meters above sea level and early-maturing varieties below 400 meters above sea level.

2. Planting

The seedlings with strong adaptability, strong stress resistance, strong disease resistance and yield temperature are selected for planting, and the planting time is generally from February to March in spring, when the temperature is suitable for the growth of young trees and helps to improve the survival rate of planting. When planting, we should pay attention to the density. Bayberry trees can be as high as 7-8 meters, with a large crown. For the permeability of each plant, generally plant 25-30 trees per mu. When planting, it is necessary to achieve large holes, large seedlings, adequate base fertilizer, seedling upright, root extension, deep planting, and pay attention to the proportion of male plants and excellent pollen pollination.

3. Soil, fertilizer and water management

In order to make its rapid growth and increase yield, soil fertilizer and water management is essential. In addition to applying sufficient base fertilizer, it is also necessary to apply fertilizer according to the growth stage. Generally, topdressing is mainly composed of plant ash and soil miscellaneous fertilizer, supplemented by appropriate amount of chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer. Fertilizer is applied 2-3 times a year, especially in the fruit stage, potash fertilizer should be applied emphatically. After planting 3-4 months, the root system of red bayberry will be covered with planting holes, and if it continues to grow, it will be hindered by hard soil or stones, so it is necessary to dig deeply into the surrounding soil to loosen the soil, which is beneficial to root growth.

4. Shaping and pruning

The shaping and pruning of the plant can promote its multi-branches and form a crown, which can bear fruit early. the specific method is as follows: after the seedling is planted and survived, the top tip of the trunk is cut off to promote its germination, and after germination, all the buds below are erased, leaving only part of the buds to concentrate nutrients, which can make it send out sturdy branches. In the second year, take 2-3 strong main branches, cut off all the other branches, and leave 2-3 new buds on the main branches to continue to branch, so that a round crown can be formed quickly. In addition, the disease and insect branches, weak branches, overgrown branches, withered branches and dense branches are all cut off in pruning, which are all disadvantageous to the growth of the main branch. the old branches should be cut off after fruit harvest to avoid excessive consumption of nutrients.
