Distribution of the latest Lantern Fruit

Lantern fruit belongs to Solanaceae, sour pulp perennial herbs, often born on hillsides, pastorals, riversides, ditches, roadsides and around houses, wasteland in shady and wet places, origin in Peru and Chile, now cultivated in all parts of China, let's take a look at the origin distribution of lantern fruit!

Distribution of producing area of Lantern Fruit

Lantern fruit is native to Peru and Chile, but it is not an important product. The locals eat casually and occasionally see it in the vegetable market. But it has been widely introduced into the tropics and subtropics, and tomatoes can be grown wherever they can survive. Residents of the Cape of good Hope began to cultivate lantern fruits before 1807. There are commercial orchards in South Africa, where jams and cans are commonly used by residents and are often exported. Central African countries, such as Gabon, also have small orchards.

After growing in the Cape of good Hope, the lantern fruit soon spread to Australia and was one of the early fruits eaten by New South Wales residents. There are already many large orchards and many wild fruit trees spread throughout Queensland, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia and northern Tasmania.

Lantern fruit producing areas in China also have a large number of branches, mostly referred to as Miss Huang, mainly distributed in Yunnan (southern), Guangxi, Guangdong, Hainan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Fujian (southern) and northeastern provinces.

What are the nicknames for lantern fruit?

Lantern fruit has the nicknames of head bulb, lantern grass, ghost lantern, little girl, girl, mushroom, pineapple, girl, sour pulp, foreign girl, fragrant girl, shy fruit, smiling fruit, fragrant horse liu and so on!

The producing environment of Lantern Fruit

1. Lantern fruit likes temperature: Lantern fruit likes temperature and is not resistant to frost. Seeds germinate rapidly at about 30 ℃, suitable for seedling growth at 20: 25 ℃ and no less than 17 ℃ at night, and 20: 25 ℃ at day and no less than 15 ℃ at night during flowering and fruiting period, otherwise it is easy to cause flower and fruit drop. The growth of plants stopped when the temperature was below 10 ℃. The plants below 0 ℃ were frozen. According to the investigation, the low temperature tolerance of seedlings is not mature, so the reproduction period in the open field should not be too early, but can only be planted after the late frost.

2. Lantern fruit likes light: Lantern fruit is sensitive to light and needs sufficient light. In the range of 3000m to 4000m candlelight, the growth and development are coordinated and the fruit quality is good. When the light was not enough 12582.10086.cn, the plant was only long and thin, the yield decreased, the color of the berry was poor, and the taste was poor. Therefore, attention must be paid to the rationality of planting density and the necessity of sharpening, sprouting and pruning in production.

3. Lantern fruit needs water: Lantern fruit needs more water, especially in the early stage of berry ripening, branches, leaves and fruit grow at the same time, need more water, when a large number of berries mature, need to control water. Therefore, in the life of the lantern fruit, the early stage likes water, the later stage is afraid of water, and there are more Rain Water in the later stage, which leads to greedy green and prosperous growth of the plant, and delays the berry ripening period and affects the harvest work. Therefore, in the production, attention should be paid to watering in the early growth stage and drainage in the later stage.

4. The requirement of soil is not strict: Lantern fruit is not strict on soil, so it can be said that it can be planted on all kinds of soil. But the sandy soil is the best, the berry taste is good, the yield and commodity rate are high. Lantern fruit is more tolerant to salt and alkali, and the soil with PH value of 6.5 to 7.5 is more suitable. In addition, it is required that the soil physical properties are better, the plough layer is deep and loose, and the root system is easy to grow to the deep layer.

5. Lantern fruit is sensitive to nutritional conditions, and lantern fruit is sensitive to nutritional conditions. If there is too much nitrogen fertilizer in the soil layer, or the proportion is out of proportion, it will lead to the phenomenon of green and late ripening, poor fruit quality and so on. If the nutrition is insufficient, the plant is short and the berry is small, but the coloring is fast, the maturity is early, and the yield is low. Therefore, it is necessary to give priority to organic fertilizer and supplement chemical fertilizer in fertilization. Nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer is the main fertilizer in the early growth stage, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer is the main fertilizer in the later stage, in order to meet the needs of each period.
