The management points of the latest snake melon cultivation
Snake gourd is a climbing crop with more than one year. Its melon is very long, similar to towel gourd, but longer and thinner than towel gourd. Snake melon in the north and south of China has a certain planting area, snake melon is also a collection of ornamental, medicinal and edible crops. Snake melon can clear heat and detoxification, clear the intestines and facilitate defecation, which is of great benefit to the human body. So how should we manage when growing snake melon? Let's take a look at it with the editor.
1. Rational fertilization
Snake melon is thin and long, and its growth ability is stronger than most other melons, so there is a great demand for fertilizer and nutrition. First of all, after the successful planting of the seedlings, we should apply enough fixed root water to improve the survival rate of the seedlings. Then, according to the growth stage of snake melon and the condition of the soil, the first batch of snake melon should be fertilized every time it is harvested. Because new melons will grow after harvest, new melons are most in need of nutrition, and most of the nutrients are harvested in mature melons, and the plants are also very weak. Topdressing fertilizer uses an appropriate amount of farm manure mixed with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements, if the lack of nutrition can easily lead to snake melon deformed melons, melons and other phenomena, affecting the yield and quality.
2. Timely watering
Snake melon has large plants, strong root capacity and relatively drought tolerance, but it needs a lot of water during the whole growth period. If there is a lack of water in the growth process, it will reduce the melon setting rate of snake melon, resulting in hindrance of snake melon expansion, a variety of stunted melons and even premature senescence of plants. Therefore, in our management, we should ensure that snake melons have sufficient water, and water them in time when they are found to be short of water, especially when it is hot and dry in summer. Under normal circumstances, water is watered once every 5-7 days, which can effectively ensure that the soil is in a moist state.
3. Pruning and framing
As mentioned earlier, snake melon is a vine plant, the melon strips are thin and long, and the vine growth and climbing ability of snake melon is strong, and the number of vines is large after maturity. Therefore, the scaffolding work is very important, when the length of the vine is more than 30 cm, it is necessary to tie the vine immediately to guide the vine to climb the frame successfully. The fruiting rate of snake melon is high, no matter the main branch or branch can hang more melons, but the quality of the main branches is poor. Therefore, we should prune the plant properly according to the specific planting mode, and cut off the excess branches, growing branches and all kinds of branches which are not beneficial to the plant in time. Improve the quality of snake melon and its own culture benefit.
4. Disease control
Disease control is emphasized in all the articles written by the editor, because some diseases and insect pests are likely to occur in the growing period of snake melon. We must strengthen the management of the melon orchard, clean up the fallen leaves in time, and bring the pruned branches out of the orchard together, so as to reduce the source of disease and reduce the incidence. Then disinfect the melon garden regularly, observe the growth of snake melon, and take the diseased leaves out of the orchard after discovering the disease.

The above is a brief introduction to the key points of snake melon cultivation and management, snake melon may be relatively rare, but with the development of China's vegetable industry, snake melon will certainly come into people's field of vision. So people who have planting ideas can consider it after they have a comprehensive understanding. That's all for today's introduction. For more information, please continue to follow our website!
