Matters needing attention in planting Oriental Honey

Dongfang honey is actually a kind of melon, which is improved by biotechnology. It has higher nutritional value and tastes better than melon, so many people give up the original melon and begin to plant Oriental honey. Below by the pro-agricultural network to take you to understand some of the problems that Oriental honey needs to pay attention to in the process of planting.

1. Soil preparation and fertilization

Oriental honey is generally planted in relatively flat plots, and the nutrients in the soil are relatively sufficient. Deep ploughing should be carried out during soil preparation, ditches should be made around the fields and fields to facilitate irrigation and drainage, and base fertilizer should be applied after soil preparation. It is good to eat farm manure or spread rotten withered grass evenly.

2. Seed treatment

In order to make the seeds germinate faster and reduce the harm of some diseases, we can first put the seeds in cold water in a relatively cold environment, usually four or five degrees, soak them for half a day, and then put them indoors to accelerate germination, which can not only accelerate germination, but also enhance its ability to adapt to the environment. Finally, the seeds can be stirred with some chemicals before sowing, and then the seeds can be sown.

3. Sowing and raising seedlings

When raising seedlings, it is necessary to ensure the heavy moisture and temperature of the soil, so it is usually sown on rainy days. If it does not rain, sow the soil before sowing, then cover the seeds with soil, and finally cover them with a layer of withered grass or a layer of plastic sheet. when the seeds break out of the soil, the film should be opened in time, otherwise it will burn out the seedlings.

4. Planting density

Planting density should not be too large, Oriental honey belongs to crawling growth, so generally each plant should be at least one meter to 1.5 meters apart. In this way it can have enough light, if the density is too high, the planting of oriental honey does not have enough light, then there is no sugar, it is not delicious at all. Too high density often causes some diseases, and in serious cases, it even causes seedlings to rot and cause dead seedlings.

5. Fertilizer and water management

Oriental honey generally needs to be fertilized three times in the whole process of growth. the first time is about five days after planting, in order to promote the growth rate of melon seedlings, and the second time is ten days before flowering, because more nutrients are needed during the flowering period. the second is to protect flowers. Finally, it is applied once after setting fruit, mainly to protect melon and speed up the growth of melon at the same time. Water is an important factor in the price ratio during the growth of oriental honey. Once the moisture is not controlled properly, the yield of oriental honey Yao honey is not high or the quality is poor, so keep the soil moist before flowering and stop watering slowly after melon bearing, so as to accumulate sugar.

6. prevention and control of cracked melon.

The phenomenon of melon cracking in Oriental honey is very common, so we should pay special attention to field management and water management. At the same time, we should also be very careful when working in the field, not to move Oriental honey easily. Finally, we can also protect it through special agents.

7. Timely harvest

The mature performance of Oriental honey is that the surface of the melon skin has a white green to yellowish green, and the head has a touch of orange, and if it is close, it will have a faint aroma, so it can be harvested at this time. Try to be careful when harvesting, do not force too hard, usually cut with a knife or scissors, do not handle gently after picking to prevent melon cracking.
