4. Post-sowing management: after sowing, Fructus Aurantii can cover some thatch or rice straw and often sprinkle water to maintain proper moisture in the seedling bed. After long leaves, the seedlings will be dense and sparse, lack of seedlings can be replanted, and inter-seedling transplanting can be carried out in the same autumn.

Planting method of Fructus Aurantii

1. Selection and fertilization: after growing to 3 years, the seedlings of Fructus Aurantii are planted around the fields of sandy fertile soil with good drainage (usually planted around the orange orchard), dig holes at a distance of 5m to 6m, and open the topsoil center when digging holes, and apply fertilizer mud or other late-acting fertilizer as base fertilizer.

When covering 1 / 2, gently lift the seedling to make the root system stretch and combine with the soil, fill the heart soil and then water it.

3. Cultivating soil and topdressing: Fructus Aurantii is cultivated according to the size of trees from September to November every year, 1000 kg of big trees and 500kg of small trees, peel off and cultivate the soil in February of the second year, fertilize once in early spring and early autumn, and use thinner water manure in early spring. Autumn is suitable for composting, lake grass or other late-acting fertilizers.

Disease and insect control of Fructus Aurantii

1. Ulcer disease

Leaves, shoots and fruits can all be harmed. In the south, it generally begins to occur from the end of March to the beginning of October and flourishes from May to July. Young trees are more susceptible to disease than old trees.

[control] before the onset of disease in winter or early spring, cut off the diseased branches and leaves and burn them on the spot. Before the spring buds germinated, they were sprayed with Bordeaux solution of 200 Bordeaux every 15 days for a total of 5 times and 6 times, and the leaf miner was controlled.

2. Scab

[harm] harm to young tissues such as leaves, fruits and shoots. In general, the disease is serious from late May to mid-June, and young leaves are most susceptible to the disease.

[prevention and control] cut off diseased branches and leaves, centrally burn them, strengthen culture management, spray 0.8-1-100 Bordeaux solution during spring bud germination and flower drop, or spray 50% carbendazim 500-fold solution.

3. Mycosis

[harm] when the disease occurs, there are very thin dark brown mildew spots on the leaves, fruits and branches, and finally form a fluffy black mildew layer, which affects photosynthesis, and the diseased trees are becoming weaker, less flowering, small fruit shape, poor quality and easy to rot.

[control] actively eliminate the breeding conditions of scale, whitefly and aphids and prune properly to facilitate ventilation and light transmission and enhance the tree potential.

4. Longicorn beetles

[harm] the larvae eat the branches into roots, seriously eat the pores, cause the whole branch or the whole plant to die, and even destroy the garden.

[prevention and control] pay attention to catching and killing diseases and insects and eliminate insect eggs, according to the size of the wormhole, use cotton dipped in 40% dimethoate emulsion or 90% trichlorfon solution into the wormhole, seal all holes with mud and suffocate.

5. Scale insects
