The latest planting method of white melon

White melon is an annual vine herb, cultivated all over our country, among which white melon seeds are products processed from white melon seeds. White melon is rich in protein and carbohydrates, as well as a solution to quench thirst, diuretic laxative and other medicinal value. There are many friends who want to plant white melon but don't know how to plant it. Today, Xiaobian brings you the planting method of white melon. Let's take a look together!

1. Select superior species

To ensure the purity of seeds, as well as the yield and quality of white melon, we must first select superior seeds. When determining seedlings, select seedlings with little difference in growth, no disease, no harm and no abnormal melons. Then, when the plants bloom and bear fruit, the plants with better growth and moderate female flower position are selected as seed plants. And after the fruit, select the fruit size is almost the same, good fruit seed melon, do a good mark, easy to distinguish. Then harvest according to the requirements of melon planting, do a good job of seed treatment.

2. Timely sowing

White melon is a thermophilic melon crop that cannot grow in cold environments and is usually cultivated when the temperature rises to about 15 degrees after the frost breaks. In the south, it is generally possible to explode red in May-July, spring sowing around Qingming Festival, not too early, otherwise the seeds are easy to freeze, the germination speed is slow or even unable to germinate. After germination, the growth will also be seriously hindered, and uneven seedlings will have a greater impact on the middle and late development of plants and the formation of fruits. When planting in areas with large rainfall, drainage should be done well, and in order to improve yield, appropriate dense planting can be done.

3. Fertilizer and water management

When topdressing white melon, according to the white melon's demand for nutrients, control the proportion and concentration of nutrients in the fertilizer. Use more organic fertilizer and try not to use chemical fertilizer. When preparing the soil, it is necessary to apply sufficient base fertilizer, which is mainly agricultural machinery fertilizer and compound fertilizer. Farming fertilizer requirements are relatively large, but before the results to control the application of good fertilizer, to prevent excessive nutrition led to excessive growth of plants, affecting fruit set. After fruiting, increase the amount of fertilizer and water to promote fruit expansion and maintain plant growth. After swelling, reduce watering times to ensure seed development.

4. Timely harvest

White melon growth period is not very long, usually in the flowering period after a month will mature, this time the fruit quality is good, soft flesh, fruit stalk gradually loose collapse, easy to pick, is the best time to harvest. However, we still have to harvest according to the weather changes, for example, the southern spring sowing white melon usually can be harvested around June, but the weather in June in the south is hot and humid. Therefore, when harvesting, quality and quantity, prevent rotten melon is the key. The waterlogging prevention of white melon is relatively poor. Pay attention to drainage and waterlogging prevention before harvest to prevent accumulated water from causing diseases and insect pests. When it is serious, white melon will all rot.

The above is a simple introduction to the planting method of white melon, white melon in the process of growth but also pay attention to the harm of pests. Common diseases and insect pests of white melon include cotton rot and leaf miner. No matter what diseases and insect pests, if they are not treated in time, they will cause great harm, resulting in serious decline in yield or even no harvest. Therefore, we must pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, thank you for reading and support.
