The latest course on techniques and methods of planting and raising seedlings of watermelon in winter

In order to improve the heat preservation and heating measures of the seedling shed, the heat preservation and non-performance can be greatly improved by using polycyanoethylene non-dripping film instead of polyethylene film, and the greenhouse temperature can be increased by 1-2 degrees. Temporary heating equipment such as fire wall or heating furnace should be installed in the shed. Artificial warming should be carried out when necessary.

The seeds of watermelon and rootstock were treated with low temperature to enhance the cold resistance of seedlings.

The seeds to be germinated after soaking were placed in a freezing environment of about 0 degrees for 24 hours, and then germinated at a suitable temperature. When the seeds were exposed, they were treated with-1 degree for 12-18 hours a day. Transfer to 18 degrees treatment for 12-6 hours, a total of 3-5 days, and then the parties in the appropriate temperature conditions to promote germination.

Strengthen the management after grafting

Within 1 week after grafting, the wound healing stage kept the greenhouse temperature at 20-30 degrees. Artificial warming should be carried out when the night is below 18 degrees, and the grafting seedling bed should be strictly sealed for 3-6 days, keeping the relative temperature in the bed 100%, shading completely in the first 3 days, only passing through weak scattered light, gradually seeing light on the 4th day, and gradually ventilating after 6 days. remove the shade and increase ventilation after the 7th day. Make the grafted seedlings adapt to the normal seedling bed environment.

Strengthen the management of severe weather

The management of severe weather such as continuous overcast, rain and snow, strong cold spell and so on is an important link in the success or failure of seedling breeding. Pay attention to listen to the weather forecast and take measures to keep warm before the cold spell. In times of rain and snow, two layers of film must be covered with grass grass. In continuous cloudy days, increase the light as much as possible without freezing damage. If the bed temperature drops after uncovering, the grass should be opened and covered before 3 p.m. If the bed temperature drops slightly, it can be covered with the cover. Do not not uncover for a few days, when there is rain and snow, cover the grass with the break between the rain and snow. If the light is insufficient for a long time, you can use fluorescent lamps to make up the light manually. After a long overcast, the uncovering should be carried out slowly, otherwise it is easy to cause flashing seedlings or even falling seedlings. If the seedlings are found to be withered, they should be covered with shade immediately, and then uncover after the melon seedlings return to normal. Repeat this several times until it doesn't wither. Then uncover all the grass grass, and then enter the normal management.

Increase ventilation, cool down and refine seedlings 7-10 days before planting

In the daytime 15-20 degrees, within the limit that the melon seedlings are not damaged by freezing, the night temperature can be reduced to 8-10 degrees, so that the melon seedlings can adapt to the environmental conditions after planting.
