Citron citrus plant of the family Rutaceae, whose appearance is similar to that of grapefruit, but it tastes sour and has less pulp, so it is generally not used for food, can be used as medicine, or as a fruit ornamental plant. At present, it is planted in all major areas of the country, so what should we pay attention to when planting? Let's take a look.

1. Proper pruning

Because the branching power of citron is weak, in order to increase the width of the crown and increase the yield, it is necessary to prune properly during the growing period of citron to promote multiple branches of the plant. it is best to combine the binding shape and retain more branches and leaves as much as possible. In addition, in autumn and winter, we should also pay attention to pruning, trimming off dense branches, growing branches, and pest branches, so as to promote the plant to sprout early in the following year, blossom and bear fruit as soon as possible, and increase yield.

2. Pay attention to watering

Citrus likes warm and humid environment and is suitable to grow in high temperature and humid environment, but it is necessary to reduce the amount of water and times of watering before the formation of flower buds, so that the branches stop growing slightly, and stop watering in late August after drying. The reason for the lack of water is that the leaf edge turns inward. When the main bud of the plant has expanded and changed from green to white, when the flower bud differentiation is completed, watering can be resumed and some thin fertilizer can be applied. When the soil is too dry, you can sprinkle some water to the leaves sooner or later, and pour some water to the roots at noon, which can prevent the leaves from withering. Attention should be paid to the amount of water in the flowering and fruit stage. both heavy water and small water will cause the phenomenon of falling flowers and fruits, and can not be drenched at the flowering stage, but can be sprinkled on the edge of the plant in the evening to prevent dust. When the seedlings grow to soybean water, they can appropriately increase the amount of water and increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote the rapid expansion of seedlings.

3. Fruit period management

In the fruit period, the temperature should not be on the high side, while keeping clear and moist control, it can improve the quality of the fruit, and if it is used as an ornamental potted plant, it can prolong the viewing time. In the fruit period to maintain sufficient light, not shade, if the lack of light, affect leaf photosynthesis, reduce nutrient synthesis, not conducive to the growth and development of fruit.

The above is the introduction of what we should pay attention to when planting citron. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
