Cultivation Techniques of Red Flesh Apple

Red flesh apple is a new type of apple. As its name implies, the flesh of red flesh apple is red. Red meat apple is different from ordinary apple in that it has early fruit time, high yield and resistance to barren, so it is a kind of very high quality apple. But now because there are more and more exotic apples, the number of red meat apples is getting smaller and smaller, so they are being cultivated vigorously. So the editor below brings you the cultivation techniques of red meat apples, let's have a look!

1. Land selection and preparation

The growth ability of red meat apple is relatively strong, and it can grow normally in a variety of different soils. However, the yield and fruit quality will be affected to a certain extent, so when we choose the soil, we should choose a place where the soil layer is deep and fertile, permeable and clean enough. And the previous stubble of the soil should not be drupe trees such as peaches and plums, and the PH value should be kept at about 7. Then carry on the soil preparation work, turn it deep into ploughing, improve the soil permeability, apply sufficient base fertilizer, improve soil fertility, and add appropriate amount of active bacteria organic fertilizer, fully mixed with the soil before cultivation.

2. Timely planting

Before planting, we should first dig the planting hole, remove the stones in the planting hole, and control the interval of the planting hole according to the planting density. Then it began to be planted, and when it was planted, the soil was gently pressed while backfilling. Then choose an appropriate cultivation time, usually in autumn. Because the autumn environment is very suitable for the growth of red meat apple, its root healing speed is fast, take root early, can delay seedling time earlier. The cultivated seedlings should be planted within two years, the planting depth should be kept at about 11 cm, and the fixed root water should be poured after planting to ensure the survival of the young trees.

3. Water and fertilizer management

After planting, the soil should be kept moist, especially before the red meat apple blossoms and bears fruit. Sufficient water can ensure the yield and quality of the red meat fruit. And to apply fertilizer properly, the number of times of topdressing should not be less than twice a year, the first time before flowering, and then again during the fruit expansion period. The main purpose is to meet the adequate nutrition needed for the growth of red meat apples. And at the same time of topdressing, foliar fertilizer should be sprayed regularly, mainly biogas liquid and water, and attention should be paid to the dosage and the ratio of biogas liquid to water. When spraying, we should pay attention to the sun, should be carried out when the sun is small, and the fruit can not drop after spraying.

4. Orchard management

The branching ability of red meat apple is relatively weak in the seedling stage, so it should not be overpruned to ensure a reasonable crown shape. The height of the trunk should be maintained at about 28 cm, and then after growing to the middle and later stage, overlong and dense branches, thin, overlapping and pest branches should be cut off, which can improve permeability and promote flowering and fruiting. We also need to do a good job in ploughing weeding, heart-picking and sprouting and other basic work, which directly affect the growth of red-meat apples. And the natural pollination ability of red meat apple is weak, so it is necessary to do a good job in the management of artificial pollination to ensure the blossom and fruit of red meat apple.

The above is a brief introduction to the cultivation technology of red meat apple, the nutritional value of red meat apple is very high, and now the artificial planting area is relatively small. And there are certain planting advantages, but now not many people know about red meat apples, the price is also more expensive, so planting still has a certain risk. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. Thank you for your reading and support.
