Last Updated: 2024/09/20, "Red K", whose proper name is Roselle, is a plant of the genus hibiscus of Malvaceae, which is native to Africa. When "Hongtao K" was introduced and cultivated in China, the fruit yield per plant was as high as 5kg, the yield was more than 3000 kg per mu, and the output value per mu was more than 30 000 yuan. The fruit of "hearts K" is actually the calyx of rose eggplant. Calyx and bracteoles are used to make fruit pulp, beverage, extract pigment and so on. "Heart K" also has pharmacological functions such as lowering blood pressure, relieving thirst, promoting bile secretion, helping digestion and tonifying blood. After several years of cultivation practice, it has been explored

"Red K", whose proper name is Roselle, is a plant of the genus hibiscus of Malvaceae, which is native to Africa. When "Hongtao K" was introduced and cultivated in China, the fruit yield per plant was as high as 5kg, the yield was more than 3000 kg per mu, and the output value per mu was more than 30 000 yuan. The fruit of "hearts K" is actually the calyx of rose eggplant. Calyx and bracteoles are used to make fruit pulp, beverage, extract pigment and so on. "Heart K" also has pharmacological functions such as lowering blood pressure, relieving thirst, promoting bile secretion, helping digestion and tonifying blood. After several years of cultivation practice, a set of effective cultivation techniques have been explored.

1. The garden chooses "Red Peach K" to be drought-resistant, not resistant to waterlogging and strong light-loving. It can be planted in mountains, hills and flat land. It is appropriate to choose the land with fertile soil, deep soil layer, loose texture, good drainage and plenty of sunshine.

two。 When planting "hearts K" seedlings, they must be planted in high and dry land. Before planting, 500 kg of mature organic fertilizer and 50 kg of compound fertilizer of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were applied per mu, and the soil was ploughed 30 cm deep. The land was planted after leveling, the row spacing was about 100 cm, and 667 plants were planted per mu. The planting time is suitable for late April to early May, and harvested and utilized in early November.

3. The root system of "Hongtao K" in fertilizer and water management is well developed and needs more nutrients. Fertilization should be based on organic fertilizer, and base fertilizer should account for 70% of the total annual fertilizer application, and topdressing should be mainly concentrated in three stages: first, after seedling planting, a return to green fertilizer based on nitrogen fertilizer should be applied once; second, after coring, it should be combined with re-application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer as branch fertilizer; third, after bolting, a flower-promoting and fruit-protecting fertilizer based on phosphorus and potassium should be applied.

4. After 40 days of planting, when new shoots sprouted in the lower leaf axils, coring should be carried out to promote the branch growth of the lower nodes. When the branch is 10 cm long, it needs pruning in time to promote the development of flower branches and improve the rate of fruit preservation.

5. Timely harvest when the fruit ripening rate of "red peach K" fruit branch reaches 10%, it can be harvested in batches according to market demand, in order to improve fruit quality and plant fruit yield, and increase economic benefits.
