The latest method to improve the sitting rate of Pumpkin

Pumpkin is one of the fruits and vegetables produced in summer. It is palatable and nutritious, so it is a favorite vegetable for consumers. It has strong stress resistance, many varieties, wide distribution and storage resistance, so it is a vegetable with high yield. However, the yield of many friends is very low when planting, which is mainly caused by the melon setting rate, so how to increase the melon setting rate? Let's take a look at the pro-farm network.

1. Pick the heart at the right time

When the melon vine grows to about 2 meters, the growth node of the main vine will be removed in time. At this time, in order to promote the timely branching of the main vine, 3-4 branches will continue to grow, so that the number of flowers will increase. In the case of a large number of flowers, it will naturally pass the melon sitting rate.

2. Build a melon shed

After setting up the melon shed and picking the heart, the main vine grows a different number of branch vines after picking the heart. When the branch vines grow to a certain length, if they are not managed, they go back to intertwining each other, resulting in no ventilation and light transmittance, and it is easy to make the disease invade. Therefore, building a melon shed in time and introducing vines on the shelf can not only increase the permeability between melons and vines, but also reduce the probability of diseases. Generally, after building a melon shed, the melon setting rate can be increased to more than 40%.

3. Prevent overgrowth

In order to improve the melon setting rate, it is essential to prevent the excessive growth of melon vines, which will seize a lot of nutrients and lead to less results. The way to prevent excessive growth is to control the application amount of nitrogen fertilizer and increase the amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. In addition, after excessive growth, excess vines and leaves can be cut off to reduce nutrient consumption. In addition, a small seam can be drawn where the melon vine leaves the root at 25,000cm, and a small piece of charcoal can be stuffed into the knife gap, which can inhibit plant growth.

4. Auxiliary pollination

Pumpkin is achieved by cross-pollination, mainly through wind and bees and insects pollination, but if the weather is cloudy and rainy, the pollen is destroyed, reducing the pollination effect and reducing the sitting rate. At this time, artificial pollination is needed to improve the melon setting rate, cover the flowers with melon leaves to prevent Rain Water from invading, after the rain, take the male flowers over the female flowers, 2-3 days out to complete pollination.

5. Remove the yellow leaves

Removing yellow leaves is also one of the ways to improve the setting rate of pumpkins. On the vines that have already flowered and bearing melons, the foot leaves and yellow leaves on the vines are removed in time, and 1/3 of the male flowers are removed, which can improve the permeability of the plant and retain the nutrients of the plant as much as possible to avoid excessive consumption and make it bloom and bear melon.

The above is the way to improve the pumpkin sitting rate brought by the pro-agricultural network. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about pumpkin planting, please pay attention to the pro-agricultural network.
