Watering should not be too much in the seedling stage, otherwise it will have a certain impact on the roots. After entering the vine flowering period, the amount of water should be increased appropriately, and it is not suitable to water at noon on a sunny day. In the harvest period, we should not only properly water, but also keep a water layer of about 15 cm in the ditch, and finally, we should pay attention to the drainage work on rainy days.
