What happened to the dead seedlings of the latest cantaloupe?

Cantaloupe is a variety of cucurbitaceae, its taste is more special than other fruits, the pulp is sweet, more moisture. Cantaloupe is also rich in nutritional value, cantaloupe can also be used to extract essential oils, medicine and so on, which has high value in beauty and medicine. However, dead seedlings often occur in the cultivation of cantaloupe. Today, the editor will tell you the reasons for the death of cantaloupe seedlings.

1. Excessive humidity

In the process of managing cantaloupe, many friends will pour a lot of water in the early stage to produce a lot of water in the field. However, cantaloupe is a special fruit in Xinjiang, and it is a kind of drought-tolerant fruit. If there is too much water, the roots will rot and die, so it is not suitable to water a lot in the early stage.

2. the temperature is too high

Cantaloupe is a kind of fruit which is very sensitive to water. Too much water will rot the roots and lead to dead seedlings. However, in the case of too high temperature, Hami melon lack of water, roots do not have enough water to supply stems and leaves, resulting in leaves without water can not grow normally, and finally the whole seedlings withered. Therefore, when it is found that there is a lack of water, water should be replenished immediately to avoid this kind of thing.

3. Excessive fertilizer

Many friends who cultivate cantaloupe for the first time do not know the degree of demand for fertilizer, so they often apply fertilizer to cantaloupe. Caused by excessive fertilizer, the substance in the fertilizer will burn the roots, cause disease, and indirectly lead to the phenomenon of dead seedlings. Cantaloupe should not be applied too much fertilizer, just moderate.

4. Lack of light

In the seedling growth period, due to the lack of light, resulting in insufficient temperature. The main symptoms are small rhizomes and thin leaves. Because the roots are small and unable to absorb enough nutrients, the uneven surface of the stem leads to accelerated water loss and the lack of moisture in the seedlings. In addition, excessive nitrogen content and low dicarbonate water content in seedlings can also cause diseases.

5. Disease harm

Seedling quenching disease is the most destructive disease of Hami melon, which can invade the roots of seedlings. Make the rhizome of the seedling rot and soften, and the stem will produce small yellow water spots, which will fall to the ground and die in a large area when the leaves are still green. This pathogen has strong adaptability and usually invades in the seedling stage, and then causes the seedling to lodge in a large area. Botrytis cinerea invades the young leaves when the seedlings are unearthed, resulting in irregular brown patches in the young leaves, which is similar to the sudden disease.

The above are the reasons for the death of cantaloupe seedlings, mostly due to their own improper management of cantaloupe. As long as careful maintenance, proper watering and fertilization, the probability of dead seedlings is still very small.
