The propagation method of Jiabao fruit

Jiabao fruit, also known as tree grape, is an evergreen shrub of the myrtle family. Oddly enough, all the fruits of Jiabao fruit are attached to the trunk, which is completely different from other fruits. Jiabao fruit is rich in vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other trace elements, full and juicy, but also has a high ornamental value. Now that there is a certain planting area in our country, how to reproduce when planting Jiabao fruit? The following editor has brought the breeding method of Jiabao fruit, let's have a look!

1. Seed propagation

At present, seed reproduction is the most commonly used method of Jiabao fruit. Under normal circumstances, there will be a seed in each fruit. The seeds are of different specifications, most of which are embryogenic. The germination rate of seeds is closely related to the freshness of seeds. The fresher the seeds are, the higher the germination rate is. Therefore, we should try to sow as soon as possible, first crush the fruit and take out the seeds, then the meat will gradually rot in about two days, and then wash the pulp and mucus on the surface of the seeds with clean water before sowing. If it needs to be stored, put it in a plastic bag after picking and refrigerate at about 6 degrees Celsius. After the sowing time, the seeds will be taken out to deal with sowing, and the storage time can be delayed to 2 months. About a month after sowing, the court will be ready. If the temperature is low, the germination time will be slower.

2. Grafting propagation

The growth cycle of Jiabao fruit is relatively long, which usually takes about 7 years to begin to bear fruit, but the method of grafting propagation can be used to advance the fruiting time of Jiabao fruit. After grafting, through careful management, the fruit can begin in 3-4 years. First of all, we need to select trees within 2 years as grafted seedlings, and then select branches of about 1-2 years on the fruiting mother tree as grafted ears. Generally, the grafting time should be chosen in the season with lower temperature such as autumn and winter, and the survival rate of grafting will be greatly improved. In spring and summer, due to the weather, the survival rate of grafting is very low, so we must pay attention to the grafting time when grafting.

3. Cuttage propagation

Cutting propagation can also be used for the reproduction of Jiabao fruit, generally in the middle of May every year to choose 2-3 nodes, about 5 leaves of the branches. Soak it and disinfect it, and then select peat soil as cutting nutrition soil, and its rooting rate can reach 90%. Cuttings about 10 cm long can also be used, and the leaves on the cuttings should not be more than 5 pieces. After disinfection, the cuttings can be cut into the medium of sand mixed soil, which can also promote the cutting to take root. However, because the process of cutting propagation is too troublesome, and the rooting survival rate is relatively low. Therefore, it is not recommended to use the method of cutting propagation when propagating.

The above is a brief introduction to the breeding methods of Jiabao fruit, but no matter what the breeding method is, its growth cycle is relatively long. Therefore, when planting, we should pay attention to pruning, water and fertilizer and pest control and other management work, in order to ensure the healthy growth of Jiabao fruit, increase the yield and expand the economic benefits of planting.
