Management skills of wax gourd fertilizer and water

Wax gourd is a favorite dish of many people, it has a very good market prospect, and in order to achieve high quality and high yield of wax gourd, it is very important to do a good job of fertilizer and water management. So how to manage the fertilizer and water of wax gourd? Let's get to know it with the editor.

1. Apply sufficient base fertilizer

Before planting, it is necessary to open a long trench in the middle of the border to apply base fertilizer before planting. Generally, 2000-3000 kg of rotten organic fertilizer or farm manure and 50 kg of superphosphate are applied per mu. The fertilizer effect of base fertilizer is slow and can increase sufficient nutrients for the whole growth period of wax gourd.

2. Topdressing at root

Root fertilization can be divided into three stages: seedling fertilizer, vine fertilizer and melon fertilizer. Seedling fertilizer is carried out when new roots begin to grow after seedling planting, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, which is generally applied with water to reduce the concentration so as not to burn roots. Generally, 8-10 kg urea is applied per mu. Vine is the fastest growing period of wax gourd plant, at this time to apply 20-25 kg compound fertilizer per mu to promote the rapid growth of stem vines and lay the foundation for later flowering. After sitting melon should also be timely topdressing, at this time topdressing should be based on phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, to control the application of nitrogen fertilizer, in order to avoid plant overgrowth, bad young melon expansion.

3. Foliar fertilization

From the beginning of seedling colonization and survival, the mixed liquid of "Haizhuangyuan 818,800-1000 times per mu" and "Haizhuangyuan 818" broad-spectrum foliar fertilizer can be sprayed on the leaf surface, once every 7-10 days, and before flowering and at the full flowering stage, the "Haizhuangyuan 818,800-1000 times solution" can be sprayed to promote plant flowering and fruit setting. Spraying high potassium fertilizer solution during the swelling of young melons, at the same time, attention should be paid to maintaining calcium and boron elements to improve yield and quality.

4. Water management

Wax gourd expansion period has a great demand for nutrients, which is not only the key period of fertilization, but also the period of maximum water demand. In order to ensure sufficient fertilizer and water to transport nutrients to the fruit smoothly, we must keep the soil moist and not be affected by drought. Reduce deformed melons and split melons, and improve commodity value.
