Management of melon fruiting period

It is customary to divide the fruiting period of muskmelon into fruit setting period, fruit expansion stage and fruit ripening period. There are differences in management in three different periods. 1. Fruit setting period: from female flower flowering and pollination to melon depilation, called fruit setting period. During this period, the general variety is 6mi for 8 days. One of the characteristics of this period is that the female flower changes into a small fruit, and the fruit undergoes rapid cell division. The other is that the nutrients of photosynthesis are mainly transported to stems and leaves, which are mainly transported to fruits. Therefore, in the fruit setting period, the needs of phosphate fertilizer for fruits must be met to ensure that each vine can sit on a melon, and the roots and vines can grow vigorously. two。 Fruit expansion period: the fruit is from egg size to "fixed". During this period, it takes about 10ml 15 days, which is the most exuberant stage of fruit growth. It is necessary to timely and fully meet the large demand for water and fertilizer during the fruit expansion period, and make the fruit cells increase rapidly. to prevent the end of the "fixed" period too early and affect the size of the fruit, it is necessary to prolong this period as far as possible and improve the yield and quality. In addition, it is easy to get sick in this period, so it is necessary to prevent the disease in time. 3. Fruit ripening period: from long enough to physiological ripening, it is the fruit ripening period, which takes about 6 mures for 7 days, the fruit growth is slow or stops, the saccharification is strengthened, the pericarp color changes from dark to bright, the fruit texture changes from hard to sparse, sweetness increases, sends out fragrance, in cultivation management, water and fertilizer are controlled, diseases are prevented, seedlings (vines and plants) are prevented from being trampled by picking melons, premature senescence is prevented, and harvest time is prolonged as far as possible. Strive to mature all the melons born later.
