How to grow blueberries

Blueberry is a kind of blue fruit, which is loved by everyone because it tastes very sour and sweet and tastes good, and the seeds of blueberries are very small, so it can be said that there is no feeling when eating blueberries directly into their stomach. so most people eat blueberries directly and do not spit seeds. Blueberries are only the size of cherries, but they taste great, so how do you grow blueberries? Next Shuai Shuai will tell you about it!

I. Seedling selection

Seedling selection can directly select blueberry seedlings of two or three years, which can bear fruit more quickly. if the seedlings are cultivated from the beginning, it may take several years to bear fruit, so this step of seedling selection is very important. if the seedlings are not selected properly, it may lead to the extension of the growth cycle, the long profit cycle and the extra cost. in addition, it is necessary to select the seedlings without disease. The seedlings that are not strong enough should be filtered out, and only the seedlings that grow well and are disease-free should be planted.

II. Garden construction

1. Select the place

Choose the land with small slope as far as possible, and the blueberry root system is relatively shallow and very thin, so it is best not to be too tight and have good permeability, which is beneficial to the development and absorption of blueberry root system, and the soil should be acidic.

2. Colonization

The planting time of strawberry is spring and autumn, but the survival rate of autumn planting is much higher than that of spring planting. Spring planting time can only be early, not too late. Different varieties of blueberries have different row spacing. We can plant according to their corresponding row spacing. If we use multi-variety mixed planting, it can greatly improve the fruit rate and the quality of blueberries.

III. Soil management

1. Clean tillage method

Clean ploughing can be carried out from August in early spring, and it will be very disadvantageous for them to survive the winter after the beginning of autumn. Alpine blueberries often use clean tillage.

2. Grass-growing method

Compared with the clean tillage method, the grass growing method is beneficial to increase the yield and maintain the soil moisture, which is very beneficial to the machine cultivated land.

3. Weeding

Do not underestimate the details of weeding, weeding is very important, if there are too many weeds, it will compete with the land for nutrients, so weeding this step can double the yield, weeding mainly uses herbicides, the cost of spraying is much lower than manual weeding, and the efficiency is much higher than this.

4. Soil mulching

Soil mulching refers to covering dwarf blueberries with 5-10 cm leaves, which can enrich the organic matter in the soil, maintain soil moisture and inhibit the excessive growth of weeds.

IV. Fertilization

1. Types of fertilization

Blueberry is mainly nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, the proportion of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is 1:1:1, the application of nitrate nitrogen fertilizer is prohibited, and the application of chlorine fertilizer such as ammonium chloride is prohibited.

2. Fertilization method and time

The fertilization method of high clump blueberry and rabbit eye blueberry is generally ditch application, and the fertilization method of dwarf blueberry is sprinkling.

V. Irrigation

Mentioned earlier, blueberry root distribution is relatively shallow, like wet, so irrigation is very important, irrigation can not use high PH water, irrigation acid water, once every 3-5 days.

The above is how blueberries are planted. Blueberries still need some technical content to grow. It is suggested that if you want to plant blueberries, you must consider clearly before you start. It is better for experienced veterans, otherwise they will lose money. I hope this article can help you. If you want more information, please continue to follow the pro-agriculture network!
