1. Garden site selection

Crisp red plum has no particularly strict requirements for soil, but its roots are mostly distributed on the surface of the soil and are not resistant to waterlogging, so when planting, we should choose sandy soil that is not easy to accumulate water and deep soil layer. choose the ground with high dry and sunny terrain, and pay attention to the leeward. Before planting, the soil must be deeply turned over to ensure that there is enough base fertilizer. When the holes are expanded in the coming year, it is conducive to the growth of its new roots, and it can also be properly intercropped.

2. Planting

The best planting time is about December and January of the following year. Before planting, the topsoil is mashed, then mixed with mature base fertilizer and then backfilled, then covered with a thin layer of soil, and finally the seedling is placed in the middle of the hole. When covering the soil, the seedlings should be lifted gently to promote the root system to stretch and the root soil to be in full contact. After covering the soil, we should take the seedling as the center and pile it into the shape of high inside, outer and horizontal, so as to prevent the accumulation of water in the hole and affect the normal growth of the seedling.

3. Pruning

When the seedlings are planted, wait for the trunk to be 50-60 cm high, wipe off the buds less than 30 cm high in time, retain the full buds 30-60 cm high, and choose 4-5 angles when the new shoots grow to 2 cm. Choose robust shoots as main branches, and other shoots should be pruned from the base to facilitate the cultivation of robust main branches. After 4 years of planting, the crispy red plum entered the initial production stage, and then entered the full fruit stage after 6 years, when the fruit was large, it was easy to lose in picking, so it could be treated with short cutting.
