Apricot is a kind of sweet and sour delicious fruit. Many people often plant one or two apricot trees in the courtyard because they like it, but they will encounter the problem that apricot trees do not bear fruit when they are planted. So what is the reason why apricot trees do not bear fruit? What should I do? Let's have a look with the editor.

First, the reason why apricot trees do not bear fruit

1, lack of light, apricot trees grow in places where there is not enough sunlight, they are very impressed with their results.

2. due to the lack of water and fertilizer, apricot needs a lot of fertilizer and water to grow and develop, especially in the flowering and fruit stage, if it is insufficient, it will seriously affect its flower bud differentiation and blossom and bear fruit, resulting in no fruit of apricot.

3. The self-flowering seed-setting rate is low and the number of apricot fruit is small, which may be due to the low self-flowering seed-setting rate, some even self-flowering sterility and the phenomenon of little or no fruit.

4. Miss pollination, apricot blossoms are relatively sudden, often full of branches overnight, so the effective pollination time for flowers is too short, many flowers are difficult to pollinate, naturally will not bear fruit.

5. Frost injury, apricot is a kind of cold-tolerant tree, but when apricot flowers and young fruits suffer frost, their yield will also be reduced, and when it is serious, there will be no harvest, so sometimes the flowers will be full of branches, but will not produce fruit.

II. Solutions

1. When selecting land for the construction of the garden, we must choose places with sufficient light, and at the same time, in order to prevent the phenomenon of low seed setting rate of self-pollination, we must plant about 20% varieties with high seed setting rate of self-pollination and can pollinate other varieties.

2. It is necessary to strengthen the management of fertilizer and water to ensure the nutritional balance of apricot trees, especially in the flowering and fruiting stage. The foliar fertilizer of potassium dihydrogen phosphate is sprayed every half month from June to July, which can effectively improve the fruit setting rate.

3. Pay attention to the weather forecast. Once there is a frost climate, it is necessary to pile up broken weeds in the apricot orchard to light fire and smoke in time to reduce frost.

4. Apricot trees will flourish in summer, so it is necessary to prune them in time to avoid uneven nutrition, in which the extended branches of the main branches need to be cut short, and the other side branches should be pruned properly to retain too many side branches as much as possible. During the growing period, it is necessary to pick the heart and top many times, so as to cultivate the fruiting branch group and tree type, and the branches and buds that are too dense should be pruned in time.
