How to select the seed of Sakyamuni fruit? What are the methods of raising seedlings?

Many people have asked what kind of fruit Sakyamuni fruit is, and the editor thinks that it should vary from person to person. Some people like to eat it and get used to it, so they think it is very delicious and sweet. Some people don't like it, so they think it has no taste. Let's learn how to raise seedlings of Sakyamuni fruit.

How to select the seeds of Sakyamuni fruit?

1. Annona atmei

Also known as Australian Annona. The fruit is larger than the common Annona, the fruit is similar to the South American Annona, the fruit surface is slightly smooth, and the pericarp can be peeled off as a whole. The pulp tissue is solid and the sugar content is slightly lower than that of Annona. The grains are larger and smaller, black.

two。 Common Annona

The fruit is an aggregative fruit with a conical or globular fleshy berry with a tumor-like protuberance formed on the surface of the carpel. The surface is smooth, spindle-shaped or long oval, long oval. The fruit is plump.

3. Niuxin Annona

The fruit consists of most mature carpels and synthesizes fleshy polymeric berries, spherical, smooth, glabrous, reticulate, dark yellow when ripe, and long oval seeds. The flowering period is from late winter to early spring, and the fruiting period is from March to June of the following year.

2. the method of raising seedlings of Sakyamuni fruit

1. Sowing seeds

The use of seedling production is limited to common Annona, and hybrid Annona can not be used as mother tree. The source of seeds for seedling cultivation is very important, and the seeds should come from the fruits with high yield, large and correct fruit shape on the high-yield and high-quality mother plant of the good variety (common Annona). It is best to use the same variety of artificial pollination of the fruit. When the fruit is fully ripe, the fruit is light green and yellow, and the suture line between the small fruits is obvious, the seeds will be collected. As a grafted rootstock culture, seed collection can reduce the requirements. After the seeds are taken out, wash them, remove non-solid seeds and small seeds, dry them and then sow them. For example, stored seeds of Annona should be dried before sowing to promote germination. The seeds can be soaked with gibberellin of 200ppm for 24-36 hours before sowing to promote early germination. It is better to use fertile sandy loam in the seedbed and shake well with rotten organic fertilizer. Repair the ditch and start the border, and the width of the border shall prevail to facilitate field operation. Both strip sowing and sowing can be used, and the sowing rate is 7-8 kg per mu. After sowing, cover with fine sand or fine soil, slightly compacted and drenched with water, then cover with grass or plastic agricultural film to moisturize. Uncover the grass or plastic film after emergence to avoid bending the seedlings. Attention should be paid to the management of water and fertilizer in the seedling stage, generally 3-4 watering once, and once a day during drought. Topdressing can be started after 6-8 leaves to facilitate the cultivation of strong seedlings.

two。 Grafting

Common Annona is generally used as rootstock for grafting seedlings of Annona. Such rootstocks have the characteristics of good affinity, dwarfing tree shape and early production. Grafting can only be carried out when the thickness of the rootstock reaches about 0.8 cm. Grafting time: branch grafting is generally in spring, while bud grafting is better in summer and autumn, and grafting can not survive in winter. The scion of Annona chinensis is selected from the outer branches of the mother tree, which is a strong and disease-free variety. After the scion is harvested, the leaves are cut off and the petiole 0.3-0.5 cm long is retained to reduce water evaporation. This method is suitable for the sap flow period in the growing season, so that the rootstock can peel off the bark.

To sum up, Sakya fruit is also called Annona. If you want to try to grow Sakya fruit, you should not only learn the planting techniques well, but also consider whether the local ecological environment is suitable for the growth and development of Sakyamuni fruit.
