Great loss of peach fruit cracking pay attention to these can avoid fruit cracking

Everyone has heard the idiom "crooked melon and cracked jujube". Fruit also depends on its appearance, so it is necessary for fruit growers to pay attention to prevent peaches from cracking. Although it is said that before to buy peaches, my mother would say that cracked peaches are very sweet, but now everyone pays more attention to appearance. Here, small farmers will talk to you about how to prevent peach cracks.

1. The cause of peach crack

If you want to prevent peach cracks, the most important thing is to find out where the cause of peach cracks is. Only in this way can we know ourselves and the enemy and fight without defeat!

The main reason for the cracking of peaches in the growth environment is due to the change of weather. generally, cracked peaches often occur on late-ripening peach trees. This kind of peach can not keep up with the moisture in the early growing period, the weather is dry, the evaporation is large, and the peach is not well expanded. In the later stage of maturity, Rain Water increased, and the water absorbed by peach trees increased rapidly, resulting in too much water in the fruit, which led to fruit cracking.

In fact, the cracking of peaches is not caused by diseases, but mostly due to natural ripening, so the taste of such peaches is sweeter. I remember when I was a child, there was a kind of peach that would crack, and my mother liked to buy it very much, because it tasted better.

After improper fertilization, peach trees should be fertilized reasonably and management should be strengthened. If the content of nitrogen fertilizer in the orchard is high, but the lack of potassium, phosphorus, boron and other elements is also more prone to fruit cracking.

In addition, if the soil is relatively sticky and heavy, fruit cracking is more likely to occur.

2. How to prevent the occurrence of fruit cracking

It is mentioned above that peaches growing in sticky soil are more prone to fruit cracking, so before building a garden, it is best to choose places where the soil is sandy, not in areas where there is stagnant water and heavy soil.

After reasonable fertilization, peach trees should use more organic fertilizer. Generally, 3,000 kilograms of organic fertilizer can be used per mu of orchards, and then compound fertilizer can be used to avoid using only nitrogen fertilizer. At the same time, pay attention to supplement calcium fertilizer. Usually can also be combined with foliar spraying fertilizer, from peach trees two weeks after falling flowers, foliar spraying 0.3% amino acid calcium, once every half a month or so, 2 to 3 times in a row.

During the period of peach expansion, reasonable irrigation encountered drought in the early stage and rainy in the later stage, which could easily lead to fruit cracking. Therefore, we must do a good job in the rational irrigation of the orchard. In the event of drought, flood irrigation should be avoided and small water spraying can be used to allow water to slowly enter the soil. Usually reasonable soil moisture, so that the fruit reasonable expansion. Timely drainage in case of heavy rain to avoid stagnant water in the orchard.
