According to the fruit yield of 50 kg trees, each plant applied 0.5 kg of calcium superphosphate, 1 kg of potassium sulfate and 10-15 kg of fully retting organic fertilizer, which was applied after flowering, and then manure fertilizer was applied 35 days and 50 days after flowering respectively. (2) timely and moderate irrigation.

As far as the annual phenological period of litchi is concerned, bud differentiation is generally from November to January of the following year, at this time, it is necessary to promote flower fertilization of litchi. It is mainly to enhance the nutrition of trees before flowering, promote flower bud differentiation, form healthy flower ears and improve fruit setting. The fertilization period of flower promotion fertilizer is generally 10-20 days before flower bud differentiation. The flower bud differentiation of litchi "Nuomici" in Dongguan County, Guangdong Province occurred from December 15 to January 5. Therefore, the flower promotion fertilizer should be applied from November 25 to December 25; the flower bud differentiation of "Zhuangyuanhong" litchi in Fuzhou City of Fujian Province began from October 11 to November 20, and the flower promotion fertilizer should be applied from October 22 to November 10; the flower bud differentiation time of "Lanzhu" litchi in Zhangzhou City was from the middle of October to the middle of February of the next year. Because it is difficult to master the flower bud differentiation period of different varieties and different regions, it is generally suitable for early maturing varieties to apply fertilizer around the early cold in January, and late maturing varieties should apply fertilizer around the late cold in January. The type of fertilizer Late-acting fertilizer and quick-acting fertilizer, farm manure and chemical fertilizer are combined, usually 50~100 kg of decomposed human manure is applied to each plant, and 0.25-0.5 kg of nitrogen fertilizer is applied.
