Zucchini, also known as pumpkin, is a very popular melon vegetable, but although it is called pumpkin, its nutrients and taste are still different from pumpkins. Now after entering winter, zucchini growers all over our country will begin to prepare for overwintering. However, some people do not know how to manage zucchini in winter. The following editor brings you the winter management skills of zucchini. Let's have a look!

1. Planting management

There are growers will begin to plant in winter, winter planting should pay attention to planting density, do not plant too dense, the planting row spacing should be maintained at about 55 cm. When the seedlings grow about 3 leaves after sowing, then dig a ditch around the planting greenhouse to prepare for drainage and irrigation after planting. Successful planting should cover plastic film in time, improve the heat preservation capacity of soil, reduce water evaporation and promote the growth of zucchini seedlings. After planting, we should do a good job in seedling management and strengthen water and fertilizer management to ensure adequate nutrition for the growth of zucchini.

2. Temperature and humidity management

Temperature and humidity are very important for the growth of zucchini. Zucchini prefer temperature, so the temperature in the greenhouse should be controlled at about 27 degrees during the day after planting, and the temperature difference between day and night should be maintained at about 10 degrees. When the zucchini seedlings are successful, the temperature can be appropriately reduced by 2-3 degrees, but the night temperature should not be lower than 12 degrees. When the zucchini begins to sit on the melon, the temperature should be gradually raised to the temperature range when it is planted. The humidity in the greenhouse should not be too high. When the humidity is too high, it should be properly ventilated and dehumidified according to the change of temperature. Too high humidity can easily cause various diseases and insect pests.

3. Water and fertilizer management

The base fertilizer should be fully applied before planting, and the base fertilizer is mainly fully mature farm manure. If the base fertilizer is insufficient, it will lead to insufficient nutrition of seedlings and is prone to nutrient deficiency. Water enough after planting, and then water it again before flowering. However, in winter, we should pay attention to the amount of water, not too much watering, watering frequency should not be too dense, to prevent too much water resulting in zucchini frost damage. Finally, in the zucchini growth period to be timely topdressing, especially in the zucchini growth period, to ensure that all the nutrients for the growth of zucchini.

4. Pruning management

Zucchini is a trailing crop, so we have to do a good job of pruning and pruning during the growing period of zucchini, if it is not pruned properly. The wild growth of branches affected the light absorption of fruiting mother branches, which could not grow normally and affected the yield of zucchini. So we should hang the vine for the zucchini in time, and then cut off the overlong and dense, diseases and insect pests and overlapping branches. Prevent the consumption of too much nutrition, let nutrients concentrate on the fruiting mother branch, and can improve the light absorption of zucchini and promote the growth of zucchini.

While doing a good job in these management work, we should also pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests to ensure that the growth of zucchini will not be affected and protect their own planting economic benefits.
