Last Updated: 2024/09/19, 1. Construction of greenhouse production line 1. Greenhouse structure: the greenhouse is made of arched plastic with a longitudinal pipe and four card grooves of 6.5m × 30m. The height of the shed is 3.2m, the height of the shoulder is 2.0m, the distance between the arches is 60cm, and the foot of the shed is inserted into the underground 35cm. A pressing groove is installed at the inflection point of the shoulder height of the greenhouse and at the 20cm of the foot of the shed from the ground.

Hami melon varieties introduced in southeastern China and northwest China can not adapt to the climatic conditions of small temperature difference, high humidity and lack of light, so they often show poor disease resistance, low sugar content and easy to crack on the surface of melons, which affect the commerciality of melons. In recent years, cantaloupe, a new variety of cantaloupe selected by Anhui Jianghuai Horticultural Technology Co., Ltd., has the characteristics of good flesh color, stable net pattern and good quality, which is not only suitable for open field cultivation in northwest China, but also can be cultivated in southeast China. The stored crown is a large fruit reticulated Hami melon variety, which can be cultivated not only in greenhouse in early spring, but also in open field in southern winter. The plant has strong growth and strong resistance to vine blight. The melon is long and oval, the single melon weighs more than 2 kilograms, the melon shape index is about 1.7, the melon skin is gray-white, covered with regular net pattern, the net pattern is dense, the commodity appearance is good, do not take off pedicel, do not crack melon. The melon flesh is deep orange to light red, the melon cavity is small, the meat is about 4.2 cm thick, and the content of soluble solids in the center is 15% to 16%. The meat is crisp and has a strong flavor. When the temperature is suitable, the whole growth period is about 105 days, from female flower blooming to melon ripening about 42 days. Three-dimensional cultivation of hanging vines should be adopted in greenhouse cultivation, planting about 1300 plants per mu, single vine pruning, leaving 1 melon per plant, artificial pollination. When planting, 200 kg of quicklime was applied per mu to adjust soil pH and increase the amount of farm manure to ensure the quality of melon. The change of temperature may cause the fluctuation of ripening period. It is recommended to mark it when planting and taste it before harvest in order to determine the best picking time. The storage crown has strong resistance to storage and transportation, and the melon flesh can be stored for a long time without softening.
