Chopped melon is a variety of Chinese pumpkin, a new variety of melon that can be cut as you eat and regenerate rapidly. its growth characteristics and planting techniques are basically the same as ordinary pumpkins, but unlike pumpkins, they need to be set up after climbing seedlings. They do not have high requirements for the natural environment and soil. They can be planted in spring and summer. They can be planted mainly with seeds in production and cultivation. Let's take a look at how to plant cut melon seeds.

Soaking seeds to accelerate germination

Cut melon generally use direct seeding method, but in order to appear on the market early, we can also use the method of seedling transplanting. Before soaking the seeds, dry the seeds for 2-3 hours, then blanch the seeds with 55 ℃ hot water for 2 minutes, stir the seeds continuously when the water temperature drops, soak the seeds in clean water for 8-10 hours, pick up and wash them once, change the water and soak the seeds again, and then put them in a 28-℃ incubator to accelerate germination and sow the seeds.

Soil allocation

The proportion of nutritious soil for cutting melon camp seedlings is 5 parts of fertile pastoral soil free of diseases and insect pests, 3 parts of fully mature compost, 2 parts of fine sand or peat, 100 grams of Luheng 3 and 100 grams of trichlorfon per cubic meter, and covered with plastic film for 2 days. After loading the bowl, pour thoroughly with water, place 1 germinated seed flat in each bowl, and cover the fine soil 0.8 cm thick.

Seedling stage management

The cutting melon seedling bed is covered with plastic film to keep warm and humid, and the temperature should be kept at 25: 30 ℃ before emergence. After emergence, the film should be removed according to the temperature. The temperature is 25: 30 ℃ during the day and 16: 18 ℃ at night. If the temperature is still low after emergence, a new film with good light transmittance should be replaced. When the temperature reaches the requirement during the day, the film should be removed to see the light, or both ends should be ventilated, and should be covered when the temperature is low at night.

Disease prevention at seedling stage

When cutting melon seedlings grow true leaves, they are sprayed with 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate and 0.05% dichlorvos, once every five days, the spraying concentration can be appropriately increased when the seedlings grow three true leaves, and 1000 times of 75% chlorothalonil wettable powder is added to control anthracnose and root rot, and the mulch can be removed after 2 true leaves. The seedlings can be planted with 3 leaves and 1 heart.

Land preparation and planting

Before cutting and planting melons, apply sufficient base fertilizer, base fertilizer ditch application, 4000 kg of mature organic fertilizer per mu, 50 kg of ternary compound fertilizer and 30 kg of potassium sulfate per mu, sporadic planting should be dug into large holes, and planted after applying base fertilizer, the planting density in the field is 100-120 cm between rows, 60-80 cm in shed, 600-1000 plants per mu, according to soil fertility, there are many kinds of thin land, less fertile land, and watering after planting.
