How to improve the yield of pumpkin

Pumpkin is a very common melon vegetable in our daily life. There is a wide range of planting areas in China, and pumpkins also have a great market demand. When planting pumpkins, yield is a matter of great concern to everyone, because it is directly related to planting benefits. So when we plant, how can we increase the yield of pumpkins? Today, the editor will give you a brief introduction. Let's take a look at it.

1. Variety selection

The relationship between variety and pumpkin yield is very great, if you want to increase pumpkin yield, then a good variety is essential. A good pumpkin variety should have good heat tolerance and disease resistance. If these two points are done well, then the high yield of pumpkin is very simple. However, we should also pay attention to the taste of pumpkins. If we want pumpkins to taste good, we should choose something sweet, pink and tight. Ensure the content of sugar and starch, which can effectively improve the commercial value of pumpkins.

2. Soil fertilizer

Soil is very important for the growth of pumpkin, if the soil PH value is not controlled properly, then it will have a great impact on the growth of pumpkin. In particular, we should pay attention to the content of trace elements in the soil, if the soil nutrition is insufficient, lack of trace elements, then we should timely apply fertilizer to supplement nutrition and improve soil fertility. Therefore, we should apply sufficient base fertilizer to the soil before planting pumpkins. And in planting, we should also do a good job of topdressing according to the actual growth of pumpkin to ensure to meet the growth and nutrition of pumpkin and improve the yield of pumpkin.

3. Climate and environment

When we plant pumpkins, we should also control the climate according to the growth habits of pumpkins. Pumpkin is a short-sun crop, suitable for growing at a temperature of about 26 degrees. The highest temperature can not exceed 35 degrees, if it does, it will cause obvious hindrance to the growth of pumpkins. It is easy to cause pumpkin to stop growing and cause various diseases. Therefore, when we are in the pumpkin growing period, we should pay attention to control the temperature. According to the different growth stages and weather changes of pumpkin, the temperature should be adjusted in time to avoid affecting the yield of pumpkin.

4. Moisture control

Moisture control is also a key management measure in pumpkin planting. Pumpkin in the growth of the demand for water is still relatively large, many people in the planting of pumpkin, although often watering, but do not strictly control the amount of water. If too little watering leads to insufficient soil water content, it will have a great impact on the growth of pumpkins, resulting in a reduction in yield. However, watering should not be too much, soil water can easily lead to pumpkin plant rotting roots, resulting in pumpkin nutrition, water absorption hindered, affecting the growth of pumpkin, reducing yield. Therefore, the soil for planting pumpkin should be kept in a wet state, mainly dry and wet, so as to ensure the normal growth of pumpkin.

The above is a brief introduction to how to improve pumpkin production. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
