How to manage spring kiwi

Kiwifruit is a kind of fruit with high vitamin content, which is also very popular in the market. Kiwifruit originated in China, is a wild edible fruit in China, now kiwifruit has also cultivated many new varieties, such as red kiwifruit, soft jujube kiwifruit and so on. It is the spring of the year, so it is also the season for the growth of branches and leaves of kiwifruit, so how do we manage kiwifruit in spring? Let's take a look at its spring management skills.

1. Prevent frost injury in early spring

The temperature in early spring is actually relatively low, but the cold resistance of kiwifruit is limited, so freezing injury occurs in many places in early spring. This reminds us that it is still necessary to take preventive measures against frost injury in early spring to reduce unnecessary damage. In general, if the temperature in early spring is less than two degrees, we need to do a good job of prevention. We can use smoking or painting white tree trunks to prevent frost injury.

2. Spring pruning

Many people think that it is not necessary to prune branches and leaves in winter and spring. In fact, this is also a misconception. We also need to repair the branches and leaves of kiwifruit in spring, because winter pruning is likely to miss some disease, insect or withered branches, followed by the need to trim off excess vegetative branches. Finally, we also need to pick the heart of kiwifruit, wipe buds and remove buds and other work, so that kiwifruit can grow better.

3. binding of branches and vines

The binding of kiwifruit branches is a very important work. First of all, we have to select the main branches of kiwifruit, and then tie along the bracket. In the process of binding, we should pay attention to the other branches to maintain a state perpendicular to the main branches, which can promote the germination of winter buds. When it is time to show buds, remove all the buds from the main branches, and then apply a layer of twigs to promote the growth of side branches. Finally, the excess branches and leaves should be removed, and the resulting branches should be tied to the top of the support to crawl and grow, so as to reduce the harm of diseases and insect pests.

4. Topdressing spring fertilizer

Spring is the peak season for kiwifruit shoots, so it has a large demand for nutrients. In order to promote the growth of kiwifruit branches and leaves, then we also need topdressing in early spring, generally mainly urea, and with the right amount of compound fertilizer to use. Fertilization is generally used to open ditch ring application, we should be careful not to hurt the root system of kiwifruit, and watering after fertilization is conducive to the absorption and utilization of nutrients.

5. Prevention of diseases and insect pests

In spring, we need to make preparations in advance to prevent diseases and insect pests, such as canker and root rot. Before sprouting, we can spray proper amount of Baumetulite-sulfur mixture and carbendazim into the garden. Of course, the most direct thing is to scrape off all the eggs and disease spots from the kiwifruit branches, but we should pay attention to apply a layer of preventive medicine to promote wound healing so as not to infect other diseases.

The above is the management technology of kiwifruit planting brought to you by the editor today. I hope it can help the friends who grow kiwifruit. At the same time, I also hope that you will have a smooth wind and water in the subsequent planting process. Thank you for your reading and support.
