Last Updated: 2024/10/07, Lemons are open all the year round and have a rich aroma. The fruit is oval or ovate and ripens in autumn and winter. Let's talk about lemons and how to keep them. The cultivation quantity of seedling in the south is large, so it is suitable to use grafting propagation; in the north, the cultivation quantity is less, mainly used.

Lemons are open all the year round and have a rich aroma. The fruit is oval or ovate and ripens in autumn and winter.

Let's talk about lemons and how to keep them.

Raising seedlings

A large amount of cultivation in the south, suitable for grafting propagation; less cultivation in the north, mainly using cutting methods, can also buy grafted seedlings cultivation.

Upper basin

The root system of lemon has higher requirements for water, nutrients and soil, so pot cultivation should be made into water and air permeability, water and fertilizer conservation, and slightly acidic culture soil. The time of putting on the basin and changing the basin is available after autumn and early spring, and can be flexibly controlled according to the local climate.

Watering

Lemon needs more water in its growth and development, but it is easy to rot its roots because of too much water. Spring is the time for shoots and leaves to spread and bud to blossom. It should be watered appropriately. The summer light is strong, the temperature is high, needs more water. Late autumn and winter are the period of flower bud differentiation, while the basin soil is dry.

Temperature

Lemon is a light-loving plant, but if the sun is too strong, it will grow poorly. The best growth temperature is from 23 ℃ to 29 ℃. If the growth stops at more than 35 ℃, the plant will suffer frost injury at-2 ℃.

Pruning

Trimming is usually winter shearing. In line with the principle of "densification and sparse, remove the weak and stay strong", cut off withered branches, short truncated weak branches and overgrown branches without the effect of the first space. To promote flower bud differentiation.

Fertilizer application

Lemon prefer fertilizer, in addition to the basin, change the basin to apply sufficient base fertilizer, the growth period should adhere to the principle of thin fertilizer and frequent application. The times and amount of fertilization should be determined according to the growth and phenological period.
