What are the varieties of loquat seedlings?

1. Jiefang Bell: Jiefang Zhong is a famous variety with large fruit, with an average of 61.04 grams, but because of its poor early fruit, it is easy to hang fruit four years after planting, which is easy to crack fruit, easy to sunburn, especially light flavor, slightly sour, and its quality is obviously inferior to that of Big five Star.

2. Luoyangqing: Luoyangqing is a famous variety with an average fruit weight of 32.0 grams and good high-yield performance, but the fruit has high acidity, small fruit shape, poor appearance and poor commodity performance, so it can be developed appropriately as a processing variety.

3. Late five-star: the late five-star is extremely productive, the fruit is oval or nearly round, the average fruit weight is 65.3 grams, the peel is orange-red, the fruit powder is medium-thick, bright and beautiful, the flesh is orange-red, the flesh is very thick, the meat is tender, the juice is extra, and the flavor is thick and sweet.

4. Yellow five-star: yellow five-star is newly bred, its sweetness is slightly higher than big five-star, the five-star in calyx depression of fruit is smaller, and other characters are basically the same as big five-star.

5. Big five stars: large five-star fruit, good early fruit performance, extremely high yield, rich and sweet flavor, high sugar content, excellent quality, strong stress resistance, wide adaptability, simple management, few diseases and insect pests, low production cost, suitable for the vigorous development of all loquat producing areas in the south.

Propagation methods of Loquat seedlings

1. Seed collection: it usually takes seven or eight years for loquat to blossom and bear fruit. The fruiting of its mother tree can be divided into different years, and the seed maturity period is from late October to mid-November. The fruits should be collected too late to be eaten by animals and cannot be collected.

2. Seed treatment: after harvest, loquat was heaped for 3 to 5 days. After the peel softened, the peel was mixed with sand to remove the pulp, and the seeds were washed with clean water to dry. The seeds and sand were evenly mixed according to the ratio of 1 ∶ 3, and stored in layers. A thousand seeds weigh about 800 grams, and the amount of seeds used per mu is 30 to 35 kilograms.

3. Land selection and land preparation: loquat nursery land should be selected in sunny, well-drained sandy loam. Before sowing, the nursery should be deeply dug and disinfected with 3% quicklime, the bed should be meticulous and flat, stones and weeds should be removed, and side ditches and trails should be opened straight.

4. Sowing time: loquat is generally sowed in early March, sowing can be sowed on demand or strip sowing, the row spacing of plants on demand is 10 × 25 cm, the row spacing of strip sowing is 30 cm, and the depth of sowing ditch is 8 to 10 cm.

5. Sowing method: when sowing loquat, first put rotten cake fertilizer at the bottom of the ditch, then put a layer of loess 5 cm thick to cover the base fertilizer before sowing, then cover a layer of 2 cm thick loess, and finally cover a layer of rice straw to moisturize, germinate and emerge in about 40 days.

Planting method of Loquat Seedling

1. Establishment and planting of loquat: loquat has strong adaptability to soil, but the slightly acidic sandy soil with deep and fertile soil, loose air permeability and PH value of 6: 6.5 is the best. Strong seedlings with good root system, sturdy seedling stem and seedling height of about 30 cm and 40 cm are selected.

2. Soil and fertilizer management: loquat young orchards should be applied 4-5 times a year, mainly nitrogen and phosphorus. Adult trees can be fertilized three times a year, the first time is mainly available fertilizer, the second time is available nitrogen fertilizer combined with organic fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer, and the third time is late fertilizer.

3. Shaping and pruning: after planting, three evenly distributed loquat lateral branches were selected as the first layer of main branches, and another two branches were selected as auxiliary branches to remove dense branches, cut off disease and insect branches, cross branches and overlapping branches, cut short leafless branches, and retract drooping branches and weak branches.

4. Flower and fruit management

① measures to promote flowers: loquat trees strengthen fertilizer and water management in their infancy, and take reasonable measures to promote flowers in the second year.

② thinning flowers and fruits: strong trees are less sparse, weak trees are more sparse, weak trees stay strong, thinning stays early, go up and stay, go to the outside and stay inside.

③ fruit set: within one month after flowering, loquat trees put 2-3 leaves into a paper bag and spray methyl topiramate and pyrethroid pesticides.

④ fruit harvest: carefully cut off the pedicel in hand, do not scratch the furry of the fruit surface, touch the fruit, and pack the fruit in a cushioned fruit basket after harvest.

5. pest control: cut off the branches of diseases and insect pests during the management of winter garden, burn them centrally, scrape off the disease spot cracks of branches, coat the trunk with lime water, reduce the source of overwintering diseases and insect pests, strengthen management, and improve the ability of resistance to diseases and insect pests.
