The latest summer open-field eggplant planting method in July

Eggplant is distributed in all parts of our country, has a very large market demand, and the planting area in our country is also very large. The time of planting eggplant in summer is usually about June to July, which is also a critical period for eggplant planting. Planting eggplant in summer is usually around July, so how should we grow eggplant in the open field in summer and July? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Land consolidation

The waterlogging tolerance of eggplant is relatively poor, generally after planting will encounter the rainy season. Therefore, we should first choose high-lying sandy soil to ensure strong soil permeability and good drainage and irrigation. Then it is necessary to dig a good ditch to facilitate timely drainage and avoid stagnant water. The cultivation of eggplant should be mainly in small tall compartments. The height is controlled at 25-40 cm, the surface width is 110 cm, and the groove width is about 25 cm. Then we apply sufficient base fertilizer, mainly farm manure, sprinkle it evenly on the soil, prepare the soil, let the soil and fertilizer be fully mixed, and improve the soil fertility.

2. Planting management

Eggplant should pay attention to do a good job of shading after planting. After entering the slow seedling stage, the temperature should be controlled at about 30 degrees. After slowing down the seedling, the temperature decreased by 1-2 degrees, and the night temperature remained about 16-17 degrees. The growth cycle of eggplant in summer is relatively long, so we should pay attention to non-pruning in the early stage to promote flowering and fruiting. When the first batch of eggplant is harvested, the old leaves in the lower part of the plant are removed, and after forming a pair of eggplant, the lateral branches of extroverted growth are cut off. The amount of eggplant retained in each plant should be kept at about 6, and attention should be paid to controlling the planting density.

3. Water and fertilizer management

Eggplant has a large demand for water geese, so when planting, we must pay attention to maintaining sufficient moisture in the soil. If there is a shortage of water and drought, then it should be watered in time. Watering can be carried out with topdressing work, if the use of flood irrigation, then the use of ammonium bicarbonate, potassium sulfate and other fertilizers evenly sprinkled in the ditch, control the dosage. If there is enough water, dig holes around the eggplant and apply farm manure. After topdressing, attention should be paid to ventilation to avoid fertilizer damage and diseases.

4. build a frame and prune.

Planting eggplant in the open field also needs to do a good job of setting up a frame, mainly a herringbone frame, with a distance of about 1.2 meters. Then insert the post on the side of the box to make it form a nonn son. Then tie a trunk about 40cm from the ground and fix the eggplant on the bamboo pole. And then with the growth of eggplant, add a crossbar on the shelf. Then we should do a good job of picking leaves and pruning to avoid consuming too much nutrients, which can significantly improve the yield of eggplant. It also helps to improve the permeability of the field and promote the coloring of eggplant fruit.

The above is a brief introduction to the method of planting eggplant in summer open field in July. Eggplant planting in the open field is very common, but if it is planted in summer, we must pay attention to all kinds of management work to ensure the normal growth of eggplant.
