Planting techniques of wild papaya

Wild papaya is also called cow egg block, the name of cow egg block sounds very strange, but it is a kind of fruit with high nutritional value. It is not only edible, and the whole plant can be used as medicine, with relaxing muscles and activating collaterals, antipyretic and diuretic and other functions, now it has gradually become common in our country. So how to grow wild papaya? The following editor brings you the planting technology of wild papaya, let's have a look!

1. Select the place

The growth of wild papaya needs adequate nutrition, so we should choose the planting soil before planting. Wild papaya grows well in fertile, soft and deep soil, and the soil is sour, preferably in rivers, hillsides or farmland where vegetation is rich. Cultivation should be carried out in places with good ventilation, good drainage and irrigation and convenient transportation, which can not only ensure the growth of wild papaya, but also can be transported and sold in time after harvest.

2. Land preparation

After selecting the land, it is necessary to do a good job of soil preparation before sowing, and turn the soil deeply, its depth should not be less than 20 cm. And according to the planting quantity and soil fertility, the appropriate amount of base fertilizer should be applied, and the base fertilizer should use fully mature farm manure and N, P, K and other compound fertilizer. Apply it to the soil during soil preparation, then fine rake and flatten it, and do a good job in ridges and drains to facilitate later management and harvest.

3. Raising seedlings

After setting up the ground, take out the seeds from the harvested fruit, then wash them clean, remove the pulp mucus from the seed coat, and pick out the dried seeds floating on the water. Then take out the healthy seeds and air-dry them, and do a good job of soaking seeds to accelerate germination. Then control the proportion of the seeds and wet sand fully mix, put into the seedling box or seedling bed to raise seedlings. Before emergence, the moisture of sand or soil should be controlled at about 35% to promote seed germination.

4. Colonization

Seedlings after breaking the soil to do a good job in seedling management, because wild papaya seedlings are very fragile, to control the surrounding temperature, humidity, light and other environment. Improve the survival rate of seedlings, and then transplant at the right time according to their own mode of reproduction and seedling growth. After planting, we should irrigate enough fixed root water, fertilize properly according to the soil fertility of the planting field, do a good job in the management of fixed seedlings, strengthen the growth, and improve the yield and planting efficiency of wild papaya.

5. Management

The water demand of wild papaya in seedling stage is relatively large, especially in the high temperature and drought season in summer, not only to strengthen water management, but also to do a good job of ventilation to avoid high temperature affecting plant growth. When fertilizing, we should pay attention to the location of fertilization, not directly on the wild papaya plant, to prevent burning roots. Should be carried out with watering, or applied in the ditch, through the flow of water to drive the transport of fertilizer, to ensure the growth of wild papaya.

The above is a brief introduction of wild papaya planting technology, wild papaya cultivation is similar to other fruits, but we need to do a good job in field management. It is necessary to be sensible to observe the situation of weeds in the field and do a good job of weeding and weeding in order to prevent weeds from grabbing the nutrition of wild papaya and hindering the growth of plants.
