Management points of planting Red Meat Honey Pomelo

As a new variety of pomelo, red meat honey pomelo has been sought after by many people as soon as it is put on the market. And now the market of red pomelo is vaguely more than that of white pomelo, so the planting area of red pomelo in China is also getting larger and larger. However, the cultivation of red pomelo is not so simple, it requires people to have certain management skills. So the editor below brings you the management points of planting red flesh honey pomelo, let's have a look!

1. Shaping and pruning

The tree shape of red flesh honey pomelo is very large, so it is very important to do a good job of shaping and pruning. We should cultivate about 4 strong and uniform main branches on each tree. Ensure that the main and lateral branches are evenly distributed, the crown is moderate, and the shoots should be retained at the initial stage. Cut the vegetative branch short to promote branching. During plastic surgery, the fruit tree can be supported with a stick, or a rope can be used to lift the main branch. Ensure that the branches are uniform, the branches will not sink, prevent the top from appearing in the later stage, and the pruning method should be adjusted according to the tree age to ensure the growth of fruit trees.

2. Thinning flowers and picking hearts

The amount of flowers and fruits of red flesh honey pomelo is very large, so thinning flowers and picking hearts is also an indispensable management work in the planting process. Proper flower thinning and heart picking can effectively reduce nutrient consumption, improve flower quality and fruit setting rate, avoid exceeding the bearing range of fruit trees, promote fruit expansion, improve fruit quality and expand planting benefits. Remove the weak flower branches of adult and aging trees, abide by the principle of weakening and maintaining strength, and there should be no more than 5 flowers on each fruiting mother branch. Then pick leaves from the overgrown branches at the top of the crown, and each young shoot retains about 5 leaves.

3. Protect flowers and fruits

The flowering and fruiting of red heart pomelo in spring will be affected by some natural factors, especially in the flowering period, high temperature, high humidity and lack of water will reduce the flowering and fruiting rate of fruit trees, so we should strengthen management to protect flowers and fruits, high yield and high quality. Proper fertilizer, water and temperature are needed for shoot growth in spring. Lack of nutrition and moisture will seriously affect the quality of flowers and reduce the rate of fruit setting. Therefore, we should properly water the fruit trees and cut the fruit trees twice to protect the fruit. However, according to the tree age, the ring cutting of the tree potential difference may lead to the senescence or even death of the fruit tree.

4. Water and fertilizer management

I just said that the amount of flowers and fruits of red flesh honey pomelo is very large, so the demand for water and fertilizer is also relatively large. When applying fertilizer, we mainly control the proportion of fertilizer and nutrition according to the tree age. For example, young trees should apply more nitrogen fertilizer to promote their growth. The main principle is to apply more and less fertilizer. Then in the period of shoot growth, flower bud differentiation and fruit development, several fruit trees with large water demand should be watered in time to ensure that the soil is moist, and the soil water content should reach about 60%. However, should not be too much, too much watering or rainy days should also do a good job of drainage.

The above is a brief introduction to the main points of the management of red-heart pomelo. The growth cycle of red-heart pomelo is long and it is troublesome to manage. Many friends fail to grow because of lack of patience or improper management. Therefore, I hope that everyone can master the correct management methods to ensure their own planting interests.
