How to improve the fruit setting rate of eggplant

Eggplant is a common vegetable throughout the year, the market demand is large, and with the planting of a large area, many planting reflect its low fruit setting rate and problems, seriously affecting the yield. Is there any way to improve the fruit setting rate of eggplant? Let's take a look.

1. Pick the heart

In the process of eggplant growth, the law of fruit setting is generally bifurcated, that is, more bifurcations overwintering, the more fruit it produces, so in order to promote its bifurcation, it can be coring after planting to promote its multi-bifurcation and promote its new branch growth. In this way, the fruit will grow more, and the fruit setting rate will be increased. Needless to say, the harvest may achieve the goal of high yield.

2. Artificial pollination

In the cultivation of vegetables or fruits, most of them are allowed to pollinate naturally, but some crops are of poor pollination quality, so the yield does not go up, so it is necessary to carry out artificial pollination. The same is true for planting eggplant. The flowering time of eggplant is usually around 6 o'clock in the morning, but many farmers often make a mistake when planting, that is, the time chosen for artificial pollination is not accurate, which leads to poor pollination treatment, and the best pollination time is between 8 am and 10:00 In addition to grasping the pollination time, there are also correct methods to carry out reasonable light work according to the needs of eggplant to achieve the effect of high yield.

3. Spraying hormone

Many growers tend to use certain hormones, as long as these hormones are used properly, they can increase some yields, but we should pay attention to the ways and methods when using them, because the hormone itself has a certain effect on plants. Frequent use will reduce plant quality and affect growth and development. The commonly used hormone in planting eggplant is anti-falling hormone, which is best used at flowering stage, which can not only prevent the phenomenon of falling flowers and fruits, but also improve the fruit setting rate to a certain extent, and finally achieve the goal of high yield.

4. Pest control

No matter what kind of vegetables, there will inevitably be certain diseases and insect pests in the process of planting, and eggplant is no exception. Once the harm of diseases and insect pests occurs, it will certainly affect the fruit setting rate. The most common are red spiders and aphids. The best control measures must be taken during the flowering and fruiting period of eggplant to avoid low yield of eggplant. The seeds and soil can be disinfected before sowing, and certain preventive measures can be taken. When diseases and insect pests occur, chemical control should be sprayed in time to reduce the loss to the minimum.
