Why does early flowering occur?

Loquat is a kind of fruit loved by everyone, and it also has high medicinal value. Now the scale of loquat planting continues to expand, so there are more and more problems in planting. With the change of seasonal climate, many growers reflect that loquat has appeared in early spring. Why is this? So what does loquat early flower mean? What are the precautions against early blooms? Let's take a look at it together.

1. What is the early flowering phenomenon of loquat?

Normal loquat flowering period generally lasts from October to January of the following year, and loquat flowers opened during this period belong to normal flowering period. Of course, different loquat varieties, planted under different climatic conditions, its flowering may be advanced or slightly delayed, this is a very normal phenomenon. However, if loquat blooms before October, it is called early flower, and growers are also very worried, because it is very likely that it will not survive the winter normally, so the yield and quality of the next year will be damaged, so we should avoid the appearance of early flower in the process of planting.

2. Reasons for early flowering

There are many reasons for early flowering. The first is caused by natural conditions, the second is caused by artificial winter and spring water supplement, there are contradictions between fruit tips and have not been improved, and finally is caused by extensive planting methods and unprofessional planting technology. These are the reasons for loquat early flowering, so simple and popular is the loquat fruit branch in high temperature or low temperature conditions, promote loquat flower ear formation, in the case of branch tip is not fully developed forced into flowering a phenomenon.

3. Measures to prevent early flowering

Since we know that loquat will appear early flowering phenomenon, then we need to be prepared in advance. The first is to choose the right variety according to the local climate to prevent early flowering and affect yield. Secondly, we should prepare for high temperature and low temperature prevention, avoid premature flowering after harvesting, and promote the normal growth of loquat branches and leaves. There is also reasonable water and fertilizer management, it is best to dry the roots and fertilize, to prolong the growth cycle of loquat trees, so as to maintain the tree vigor and improve the cold resistance of loquat trees. There is also summer pruning, timely topping in addition to buds, to achieve the purpose of artificial control, this is also a good way to prevent early flowering. The last is to carry out intensive planting management and constantly improve their own planting technology level.

Loquat early flowering itself does not have a great impact, because now anti-season fruit planting actually uses this principle. However, if we want high yield, when loquat appears early flower, we need to prepare for winter and improve the pollination and fruit setting rate of loquat, otherwise the loss is quite large.
