Planting time and method of Sheep Horn Honey

Yangjiao Mi is a new variety of muskmelon, which has only begun to appear on the market in recent years. As soon as it is listed, it has been loved by people, and the price has also gone up a lot. Because it is an early-maturing variety, it has a better benefit than muskmelon on the market. As for why it is called Yangjiao honey, it is because the fruit is slender and shaped like sheep's horn. Today, we mainly introduce the specific planting methods of sheep horn honey, please continue to pay attention to the following.

First, planting time

It is generally planted in March and April in spring, and the temperature is required to rise again. It can be planted at a temperature above 15 degrees Celsius. And the light is more abundant at this time. Protected cultivation can mainly be planted in autumn and November, when the external temperature is similar to that in spring, which is suitable for seed germination, when sowing can be harvested in spring and listed in advance.

II. Planting methods

1. Seed selection treatment

To choose varieties that are not prone to abnormal skin cracking, it is best to have strong adaptability and strong growth germination, mainly to adapt to the local climatic and environmental conditions. Full seeds need to be selected before sowing. Soak in 590 degrees hot water for 20 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid scalding. Then wash it and drain it, soak it with a clean cloth and wrap it up, put it in a thermostat to accelerate germination. It is best to take it out and rinse it every day at a temperature between 28 and 30 degrees to avoid secreting mucus and retting rotten seeds.

two。 Sowing and raising seedlings

Larger seeds can be raised in a seedling bowl, prepared for stacking of river sand and humus grasses, disinfected with vermiculite and soil, and used after a few days in the sun. A small bowl generally sows 1 or 2 seeds and covers 1 cm of soil. Spray water until the water flows out of the drain, then stop watering. Put it in a cool place, shade and moisturize.

3. Transplant

Leaves grow three true leaves can be transplanted, the height of about 10 centimeters, so the planting time will vary according to growth. Planting should be planted on a ridge with a width of 30 to 40 centimeters. The side ditch is 20 cm deep. The transplanting plant spacing is 30 cm and the row spacing is 40 cm. About 30 jin of farm manure was applied to one plant before transplanting, and other compound fertilizers were applied in the later stage.

4. Seedling stage management

After emergence, the emergence rate of seeds should be checked, and then those with weakness, disease and yellowing should be removed. Then water it every day to promote growth. Slow seedling after transplanting, slow seedling stage to apply some nitrogen fertilizer and water, as soon as possible to restore the growth momentum, sometimes short-term water loss, it is best to water a small amount of water many times.

One of the problems in growing Yangjiao melon is that it is easy to crack melon, and the peel is relatively brittle, so we should pay attention to this problem when planting, and apply more potash fertilizer. Choose a better variety.
