Key points of management of balsam pear in high temperature period

Balsam pear, also known as cold gourd, is a common vegetable in daily life. Balsam pear is in the full fruit period when the weather is hot, when the temperature is higher and slightly mismanaged, resulting in a serious reduction in balsam pear production. So how to manage balsam pear during the high temperature period? Let's take a look at the detailed introduction.

1. Pruning and picking leaves

Balsam pear has strong branching, more lateral vines, and some lateral vines are the result, so in order to create a well-ventilated environment for balsam pear and reduce the consumption of plant nutrients. All lateral branches below 1 meter should be removed, while 2-3 branches should be selected for those above 1 meter. Pruning should not be carried out after the middle stage of growth, but the old leaves and yellow leaves at the base, and the melon-free branches hanging to the lower part should be removed properly to increase the permeability.

2. Water management

Balsam pear likes the wet environment, but avoid stagnant water, so we should pay attention to the situation of stagnant water in the field and eliminate it in time. Watering should be carried out according to the dry and wet condition of the soil. generally, the amount of water evaporation is large under strong light, so it is necessary to sprinkle water in time to ensure the physiological needs of the plant and avoid being affected by drought and wilting.

3. Fertilization management

In order to improve the soil structure and increase the yield and Europe at the time of high yield, carbon-based fertilizer should be added when fertilizing, or the traditional fertilization method can be used to rinse with fully mature farm manure. Fertilization should follow the principle of a small amount of frequent application, in the peak growth period to ensure adequate fertilizer, but also pay attention to promoting flowers, can be sprayed in the flowering period, such as flowering essence, fruit-promoting Ling, amino acids, borax and other nutrients or agents.

4. Pest control

High temperature period is also a period of high incidence of diseases and insect pests, the common diseases are Fusarium wilt, anthrax, powdery mildew and so on, the main pests are melon fruit fly, borer, aphid. For the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests should give priority to prevention, spraying preventive agents before the onset of the disease, spraying the corresponding chemical spray prevention and control. Regent special agents were used to control borer, aphids were sprayed with imidacloprid and acetamiprid, melon fruit flies were sprayed with Regent water solution or farmland happy water solution at larval stage, and the effect was better.
