Points for attention in the latest eggplant planting

Many of us like to eat eggplant very much, especially the oil-drenched eggplant and the grilled eggplant in the barbecue. The taste is very charming. Although the market economic value of eggplant is not high, the demand is very large. Moreover, eggplant is planted in every household in the countryside. Some people can even eat eggplant for several days. It can be said that they like it very much. So the following is from the pro-agricultural network to introduce you to some of the eggplant planting process needs to pay attention to some of the matters.

1. Sowing time

The planting time of eggplant has a great influence on the yield and quality of eggplant. In Hunan, autumn sowing is generally carried out, that is, July and August every year. However, there are many places where two seasons of sowing can be alternately carried out, that is, spring sowing and autumn sowing. For example, in North China, when is the time of spring sowing? Generally, sowing can be carried out from December to February of the following year. The cultural competition between these two periods is generally around 15 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it was very suitable for the growth of eggplant, and the temperature of flowering and fruiting period also reached 15 to 25 degrees Celsius. At this time, the eggplant produced was the most delicious, and at the same time, there were many fruits.

2. Sowing method

When sowing, we must first disinfect and blanch the seeds, so that the germination rate of the seeds will be much higher. Generally, the seeds will be soaked in hot water of about 50 degrees for 20 minutes. When soaking, try to keep stirring, so that the heating of the seeds will be more uniform. Wait until the water temperature drops to 30 degrees Celsius, then put the seeds in, soak for 24 hours, then take them out and dress them with liquid medicine. When they are left for an hour, wash them with clean water and put them under high temperature for germination. When 80% of the seeds appear white buds, they can be sown.

3. Fertilization method

Eggplant planting on the fertilizer requirements are more strict, in the time of spreading base fertilizer as much as possible to apply a little, generally using farm manure and livestock manure, or human manure can be, finally in the planting time in each seed hole evenly spread into the right amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and compound fertilizer. During the growth period of eggplant, we need to apply fertilizer in batches, not too much fertilizer at one time. Generally speaking, urea is applied once 20 days after planting to promote the growth of seedlings. When eggplant blossoms, the second fertilizer is applied, mainly phosphorus fertilizer. The third fertilizer is mainly potassium fertilizer after the fruit is successfully located. Eggplant will absorb more nutrients, so try to use organic fertilizer, careful use of chemical fertilizer, this will affect the quality of eggplant, thus affecting people's health.

4. Planting density

Scientific planting density is conducive to improving the yield of eggplant, so we generally increase the density moderately. The most reasonable density for eggplant planting is 50 cm apart from each plant and 60 cm apart from each row. In this way, the ventilation effect and lighting effect in the field are still very good when eggplant grows and bears fruit. In this way, the fruit survival rate of eggplant will be much higher.

5. Disease control

Eggplant mainly has cotton blight, brown spot disease, verticillium wilt, for cotton blight we generally take Prolik water solution for control, and brown spot disease generally use metalaxyl copper WP continuous spraying three to four times to control the effect, finally verticillium wilt I need to use carbendazim or benomyl mixed with water on each plant a little good. Of course, eggplant in the growth process there are a lot of pests, such as aphids, slugs and insects, these are relatively easy to do, the use of trichlorfon is good, spray a spray that is effective oh.
