So what conditions do you need to grow cherries? Let's take a look.

1. Temperature requirement

Cherry is a temperature-loving tree species, like to grow in a warm environment, suitable for growing in areas where the annual average temperature is above 12 degrees, requiring more than 150-200 days in a year, the daily average temperature is above 10 degrees, and this requirement can be met in most parts of our country. Cherry can withstand high temperature as long as it has enough water, but a long dry environment is not good for its growth. Adult plants can withstand a low temperature of more than ten degrees below zero, frostbite at 20 degrees under the forest, and seedlings below 10 degrees below zero will freeze to death.

2. Moisture requirements

Water is also very important for cherries, its growth needs a certain amount of air humidity, if the air humidity is low, it will be disadvantageous to its growth, and when the fruit is too dry, the fruit will grow slowly and stop growing, which will affect the yield. Therefore, during cultivation, the south had better choose the area where Rain Water is abundant, while the northern region is relatively dry and suitable to be planted in areas with high air humidity, such as mountain valleys. In cultivation, high temperature in summer, rapid evaporation of water, dry air, in addition to frequent watering, but also spray water fog to improve air humidity, used for plant growth.

Cherry has higher requirements for soil, which requires not only deep and fertile soil, but also loose soil, good ventilation and good drainage. In addition, cherry is sensitive to salinity and alkali, so it is not suitable to be planted in saline-alkali soil. If the soil is too alkaline, the survival rate of cultivation is low, and the management is very laborious, and the suitable pH value of soil is between 5.6and 7.

4. Lighting

Cherry is a light-loving fruit tree, growing in an environment with sufficient light, its tree body is strong, the life of the fruiting branch is longer, the flower bud is full, the differentiation is more, the fruit will mature earlier, and the sugar content is high, so that it can be listed in advance and seize the market. can also absorb repeat customers to buy.
