How does jackfruit choose saplings?

Jackfruit is a tropical fruit very similar to durian, but they are also very different, and it is also the heaviest fruit in the world. Jackfruit nutritional value is extremely high, China's current jackfruit is the main origin of Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Fujian, Yunnan and other places, but the output is not very high, so the market price is still very considerable. So when planting jackfruit, how do we choose jackfruit saplings? Let's take a look at today's sharing of Xiaobian.

1. Seedling

The seedling is a kind of jackfruit seedling cultivated directly from jackfruit seeds. The seedlings are very pure and of high quality, which have been screened and confirmed by relevant professional institutions. However, it is not excluded that some of them are not suitable for planting, and there will be better saplings among the natural fine varieties. We generally choose seedlings with intact nutrient bags, complete nutrient soil, soil mass diameter greater than 12 cm, higher than 20 cm, robust, vigorous growth, developed root system, no pests and external damage. The most suitable seedling age for planting is about three to six months. Too short or too long will affect the survival rate of planting.

2. Grafted seedlings

Jackfruit also has a kind of seedling is grafted seedlings, grafted seedlings are widely used in planting, most of the seedlings are cultivated through grafting. When selecting grafted seedlings, we first observe whether the nutrition bag of grafted seedlings is intact and whether the nutrition is complete. The next step was to select seedlings with a diameter of more than 12 cm and more than 20 cm. In fact, this was similar to the method of selecting seedlings. However, we should pay attention to the fact that the height of grafted seedlings is preferably more than 30 cm, and the thickness of the stock section should be considered, generally greater than one cm, and the seedling age is preferably selected from six to nine months.

3. Laying seedlings

In fact, there are many plants that can be planted by layering, such as osmanthus trees, citrus trees, etc. The layering seedling is also called the circle branch seedling, it is one kind uses the asexual reproduction seedling way. Well, the first thing we should pay attention to is whether the glue solution of the layering seedlings is removed. If not, the success rate of planting is very low. Moreover, the layering seedlings are relatively short, but at the same time the yield is not high and the resistance is weak. In fact, the layering seedlings are rarely used at present. But if you really want to choose, try to choose annual seedlings that are free of pests, more robust, and more developed roots.

Jackfruit sapling cultivation methods are mainly seed propagation, grafting propagation and layering propagation of these three kinds. However, among these three propagation methods, the most commonly used one is grafting propagation, which has lower planting cost and faster growth speed. To a large extent, its purity and seed propagation are not much different. Today's Xiaobian sharing is here, but Xiaobian still suggests that when choosing seedlings, we should consider the local climate and planting environment.
