What are the latest tutorials of cucumber growth control techniques and methods?

Cucumber is a very popular melon vegetable in our life, and it has a very large market demand in China. When planting cucumbers, management is very important. If not properly managed, cucumbers are prone to excessive growth, resulting in decreased yield and quality. So when planting cucumbers, what are the control techniques? The following small series will briefly introduce you, let's take a look together!

1. Reasonable watering

Watering is very important to the growth of cucumber. When watering again, attention should be paid to controlling both ends and promoting middle growth. Before cucumber enters fruiting period, watering should be based on the principle of intertillage, soil moisture preservation and soil temperature improvement. The soil is kept dry and wet, and watered about once a week after it enters the fruiting stage. Every time before picking melons, pay attention to watering once to prevent excessive growth, and then control the amount of watering after top melon harvest to promote the extraction of new roots.

2. Scientific fertilization

While ensuring sufficient nitrogen in the soil, the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be appropriately increased, and topdressing fertilizer should be carried out in the form of liquid fertilizer. Usually in cucumber root melon has not expanded before the appropriate amount of urea, generally about 18kg per mu dressing. With the right amount of potassium sulfate, diammonium phosphate, etc. Then every two harvest topdressing once, the middle and late with water topdressing twice or so decomposed farm manure. Don't over-apply nitrogen fertilizer, otherwise it is easy to cause cucumber to grow vigorously.

3. Temperature control

Cucumber in the growth period, temperature control is the need to pay attention to, suitable for cucumber development temperature is generally around 28 degrees. The maximum temperature should not exceed 30 degrees. If it exceeds 30 degrees, cucumber plants are also very easy to grow. Therefore, when cucumber grows, the daytime temperature should be kept at about 25-30 degrees, and the temperature difference between day and night should be controlled by about 10 degrees. To prevent cucumber respiration too strong, affecting the accumulation of dry matter plants.

4. Humidity control

Humidity is also very important for the growth of cucumbers. We should adjust the air humidity according to the growth habits of cucumbers. During cucumber growth and development, humidity should be maintained at about 70%. The humidity in the shed should not exceed 85%. If it exceeds 85%, ventilation should be done in time to reduce the humidity in the shed. Every day when the sunset temperature is around 12 degrees, ventilation for about an hour. can reduce the temperature and humidity in the shed at night, prevent the cucumber from growing vigorously due to excessive temperature, effectively prevent the occurrence of diseases and insect pests, and improve the flowering and fruiting rate of the cucumber.

The above is a brief introduction to cucumber control technology. In addition to the above, we also have to do a good job of binding vines, protecting melons and other work to ensure the healthy growth of cucumbers. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to help everyone oh!
