What if kumquat doesn't bear fruit?

Kumquat is a small potted fruit tree, the plant type is small, but the amount of fruit is not low, but many friends found that their own kumquat did not bear fruit, how is this all the same? Let's get to know it with the editor.

1. Too much fertilizer and water

A large part of the reason why kumquat does not bear fruit is too much fertilizer and water, because too much fertilizer and water, plant growth is more exuberant, but this exuberance refers to branches and leaves, vigorous growth of branches and leaves will affect the fruit of kumquat, in the process of kumquat growth, fertilization is not suitable for fruit growers, usually once every 10 days, phosphate fertilizer can be applied during flowering, which is beneficial to fruit setting. Watering should also be appropriate, and the amount of watering should be controlled at the flowering stage. Watering is generally applied when the plant leaves wilt, which can promote the flower bud differentiation of the plant.

2. Too little light

Light is an important factor affecting plant reproduction, because the necessary condition for plant photosynthesis under light, if the light is too little, the plant photosynthesis is poor, it will still affect flowering and fruiting. Therefore, in the cultivation of kumquat, it is necessary to give adequate light, do not put it in too hidden places for a long time, if there is a lack of light during maintenance, then it is necessary to find ways to meet its demand for light, the normal results of the period.

3. Lack of pruning

It is an important measure to grow and breed during the reasonable pruning period of kumquat. If it is not pruned, kumquat will bear little or no fruit. Generally speaking, in order to achieve better results, kumquat needs to be pruned properly. Pruning during the growing period is mainly to preserve branches, adjust growth status and plant morphology, and reduce nutrient consumption. At this time, it is necessary to keep branches according to the needs of modeling, and flower buds need to be trimmed before flowering. Generally, 2-8 flower buds are retained on each branch, and 1-2 flower buds are generally retained.

4. Points for attention

In the process of cultivating kumquat, we should also pay attention to not being caught in the rain when blooming, which is disadvantageous to pollination and may cause orchids. Second, we need suitable acidic soil in the process of cultivation, while the north should pay attention to avoid soil Alkalization.
