How to apply fertilizer to papaya

Ordinary people's understanding of papaya is to have the role of breast enhancement, generally flat chest people will eat, but in fact this is not the case. But in any case, what the editor is going to introduce to you today has nothing to do with this. What you need to know today is the fertilization technology of papaya, that is, how to fertilize when we plant papaya. Let's read the following interpretation.

Fertilization for young trees

The growth cycle of papaya is not very long, the average-sized seedlings can bear fruit in about six to eight months after transplanting, while most papayas have a growth cycle of three to five years. That is to say, the period when papaya is fruitless belongs to the period of young trees. During this period, the main purpose is to promote the growth of young trees and make it end the growing period and enter the fruiting period as soon as possible. In addition to dealing with basic fertilizer, we also need to carry out topdressing frequently. Each time the amount of topdressing is controlled at about 30 jin. It is usually based on quick-acting fertilizer, such as available nitrogen fertilizer, urea and so on.

2. Fertilization for adult trees

1. Base fertilizer

Base fertilizer is the basic nutrient supply for the growth of papaya, which is generally carried out after the harvest of papaya every year or in spring. Each fertilization is mainly based on rotten poultry manure, combined with a small amount of phosphate fertilizer, and it is best to add about one jin of lime when applying fertilizer. Of course, if there are conditions, organic micro-fertilizer can also be used as base fertilizer, which has higher nutrients and better efficiency.

2. Growth fertilizer

The main purpose of growth fertilizer is to promote the growth of branches and leaves of papaya trees and make it enter the flowering stage as soon as possible. Growth fertilizer is not achieved overnight, we need to be divided into several times, mainly the use of nitrogen fertilizer, applied every half a month or so, about five times in a row, the concentration of fertilizer is also gradually from thin to dense. Of course, during this period of time, we can also combine fungicides and foliar fertilizer together, so that the effect of fertilization is better.

3. Promoting flower fertilizer

When the growth fertilizer of papaya is used in place, buds will appear slowly, and then we need to increase the amount of fertilizer. But during this period of fertilization, we are mainly based on phosphate fertilizer and potash fertilizer, reducing the use of nitrogen fertilizer. Flower-promoting fertilizer is mainly divided into two stages, which is divided into pre-flowering and post-flowering, and phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen ternary compound fertilizer is mainly used before flowering, in which the content of nitrogen is the lowest, and the amount of each tree is controlled at about 100 grams. Fertilization after anthesis is consistent with that before flowering, which can maintain the growth of papaya trees and promote flower bud differentiation. In order to prevent boron deficiency in papaya, we also need to spray borax properly.

4. Strong fruit fertilizer

After the fruit of papaya is set, we need to promote the growth of papaya fruit, and topdressing at this time has a great impact on the yield and quality of papaya. In general, we mainly apply ternary compound fertilizer, of which phosphorus and potassium are the main elements. The strong fruit fertilizer of papaya is slightly different from that of other fruit trees. It needs to be carried out several times, usually once a month. The dosage of each fruit tree increases gradually, but no more than one jin at most.

Under certain conditions, topdressing of papaya is best to use the combination of organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer, quick-acting fertilizer and long-acting fertilizer, and with the use of foliar fertilizer, which is the best fertilization technology. The above is the fertilization technology of papaya introduced by the editor today. If you have anything else to add, you can leave a message below.
