Fertilization Technology of Cucumber

Cucumber is one of the common vegetables in our life, it is rich in a variety of vitamins, but also the effect of heat-clearing and detoxification, in addition, its effect of weight loss and beauty is deeply loved by female friends. When planting cucumbers, reasonable fertilization is the key to high yield, so how to fertilize cucumbers? Let's get to know it with the editor.

1. Apply sufficient base fertilizer

The yield of cucumber is very high, so there is a great demand for fertility, so applying sufficient base fertilizer is the key to planting cucumber. According to the yield of 5000 kg per mu, it is necessary to absorb 11.14kg of pure nitrogen, 7.66kg of pure phosphorus and 15.57kg of pure potassium. The base fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer, with appropriate chemical fertilizer, and the fertilization method is combined with soil preparation. Generally, 4000-5000 kg of rotten organic fertilizer is applied per mu, 30 kg each with urea and diammonium phosphate, and 20 kg of potassium chloride. If it is planted in the Spring and Autumn period, the amount of fertilizer application can be reduced by about 10% and 20%.

2. Fertilization of seedlings

The key period of cultivating strong seedlings at seedling stage is also the basis for ensuring high yield of plants, so topdressing should be applied in time to promote the growth of seedlings in the seedling stage. Because the basic fertilizer is sufficient at the seedling stage, there is no need to apply big fertilizer, generally in order to promote the growth of seedlings, the combination of organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer is used. Apply rotten organic fertilizer or rotten chicken manure 100m / mu 150kg, with appropriate amount of urea and calcium superphosphate, but avoid the phenomenon of burning seedlings, so in most cases, fertilizer will be dissolved in water, which can not only accelerate the rate of fertilizer absorption, but also improve the utilization rate of fertilizer.

3. topdressing at the right time

After planting, the plant enters the peak growing season, when the vegetative growth and fruiting development of the plant are carried out together, and there is a great demand for fertility. Cucumber is a shallow root crop, and its fertility is weak, so it is necessary to apply fertilizer several times to ensure sufficient nutrients for plant growth and fruit development. According to the study, if the yield of cucumber per mu is more than 5000 kg, 80-10 times of topdressing should be required before planting to the end of harvest, and each fertilization can be 10 Mu 15 kg of diammonium acid, or 250 kg of human feces and 300 kg of urine mixed with water.

4. Extra-root fertilization

Extra-root fertilization generally refers to foliar fertilizer spraying, mainly to prevent plant deficiency caused by the lack of certain trace elements, but also to avoid plant premature senescence. Foliar fertilizer spraying is generally used in the peak period, when the temperature is low, root activity is weak, absorption capacity is poor, so in order to make it normal melon, you can supplement the necessary nutrients.
