How many years does kiwi fruit tree bear fruit?

Kiwifruit, also known as kiwifruit, fox, rattan pear, gooseberry, etc., is an ancient wild vine fruit tree native to China. It is named because macaques like to eat kiwifruit, and it is also said that the skin is so named because it looks like a macaque. It has a very high cultivation value. Folk artificial cultivation has a history of more than a thousand years. Let's take a look at the fruit of kiwifruit trees over the past few years.

How many years does the kiwifruit tree bear fruit?

Kiwifruit is a large deciduous woody vine with dioecious plants, which normally takes 5 years to bear fruit. If the fruit can be advanced to 4 years, the so-called proper management means that the fertilizer can keep up with it every year. Of course, fertilizer must be applied frequently, do not chase big fertilizer at one time, so as not to cause fertilizer damage and cause plant burning to death.

Ripening time of kiwifruit

The florescence of kiwifruit is in June and the ripening period is from August to October. The berries are ovoid and round in shape, with a cross-sectional radius of about 3 cm, densely covered with yellowish brown branched villi, ripe fruit about the size of a duck egg, dark brown and hairy epidermis that are generally not edible, and bright green flesh and rows of black seeds, named for the hairy pericarp that looks like a macaque.

Growth environment of kiwifruit

1. Climate: kiwifruit is a positive tree species, resistant to semi-shade, like a cool and humid environment, afraid of drought, waterlogging, wind. Cold-resistant, not resistant to early spring and late frost. It is suitable to choose the areas with mild climate, sufficient light, abundant rainfall, more uniform precipitation in the growing season, high air humidity, less frost damage and frost damage in the morning and evening, which can be planted at 800-1800 meters, but it is more suitable at 1000-1600 meters above sea level.

2. Soil: the growing soil of kiwifruit should be sandy soil with deep and fertile soil, good air permeability, underground water level below 1 meter, high content of organic matter and slightly acidic soil with PH 5.5-6.5. Strong acid or alkaline soil should be improved before cultivation.

3. Illumination: kiwifruit likes light and is afraid of the sun. Wild plants basically grow on shady or semi-shady slopes and riversides. They have a very strong ability to make use of astigmatism. Even if they wind and grow on a big tree, there is no problem, but they can not be too hidden. If there is a serious lack of light, the branches will die. Generally speaking, they like the sun but are afraid of high temperature.

4. Temperature: temperature is the main factor that limits the distribution, growth and development of kiwifruit. Each species has a suitable temperature range, but beyond this range, it will grow poorly or cannot survive. Most species of kiwifruit require warm and humid climates, that is, subtropical or temperate humid and semi-humid climates.

5. Fertilization: kiwifruit likes fertilizer and is afraid of burning. Once it lacks inorganic nutrients, it shows yellowing, leaflet, stopping growth and other phenomena, so kiwifruit is sensitive to fertilizer, but fleshy root system is also very sensitive to soil salt concentration (especially continuous high temperature and drought). Thus forming a new contradiction to three-dimensional, production requires a small number of fertilizer application method, that is, it can meet the fertilizer demand without fertilizer damage, that is, kiwifruit likes fertilizer and is afraid of burning.

6. Moisture: kiwifruit likes water and is afraid of waterlogging, the effect of leaf transpiration in summer is very exuberant, and the water demand is relatively large, so it is generally required that the soil water content should be maintained at 70% from June to August, but at the same time, the root system of kiwifruit is fleshy root with strong respiration, which requires more oxygen content in the soil, that is, to have the necessary soil air permeability, so according to the relationship between the growth and decline of soil water and air, it can not be watered too much.
