Causes and Preventive measures of Citrus Seedling

Citrus is our most common fruit, every autumn and winter season is its market season, which can be seen everywhere in the market, although it is delicious, but there will be a variety of problems in the planting process. Stiff seedlings is one of them, which is a phenomenon that occurs in seedlings, so what is the cause of citrus fruit? How to solve it? Come and have a look with the editor.

First, the cause of formation

1. Congenital deficiency of seedlings

Citrus seedlings are congenital deficiency, weak growth, less roots, in the cultivation of citrus, the planting area is large, not all seedlings can grow into big trees, so many plantations will encounter this situation more or less.

2. Low-lying terrain

The planting land is low-lying, and the fruit trees with low groundwater level can easily cause stagnant water in the roots and cause waterlogging, which is also easy to cause the phenomenon of rigid seedlings.

3. Soil problems

Citrus is adaptable to the soil, but if the soil is sour or alkaline and the soil layer is shallow, it will also affect its root growth, resulting in rigid seedlings.

4. Low content of organic matter.

The content of organic matter in the soil is too low, because the plant is lack of organic nutrition in the growth process, can not provide nutrition to fruit trees in time, so the phenomenon of rigid seedlings will occur.

II. Preventive measures

1. Choose strong seedlings

In the selection and purchase, we must choose the citrus seedlings with strong growth, and if we accidentally buy the seedlings with weak resistance, it is suggested that the weak citrus seedlings should be cultivated together, and when they are cultivated into robust seedlings, they should be transplanted into the field.

2. Ridging cultivation

If planted in low-lying plots, ridging cultivation can be used to raise the groundwater level and open ditches for drainage so as not to cause waterlogging.

3. Soil improvement

For the acidity or alkalinity of the soil, it is possible to improve the soil, such as using quicklime to improve the acidic soil, but for the seriously acidic or alkaline soil, it is difficult to improve the soil, so it is recommended to move the citrus to the acidity-alkali suitable plot for planting.

4. Fertilization

For the plots with low content of organic matter, a large amount of organic fertilizer containing humic acid can be applied, which can increase the content of soil organic matter and is beneficial to the absorption of nutrients by citrus plants.

5. Pruning to promote root

For the normal seedlings, and the feeling in the suitable plot, but still shows the slow growth of the plant, then it is necessary to analyze the reasons in time, because the root system is underdeveloped, the nutrients absorbed are effective, can not meet the normal growth of citrus. At this time, part of the branches and leaves of the plant can be trimmed off and fertilized with the roots to promote the plant to grow more roots and cultivate robust roots.

The above is the introduction of the causes and preventive measures of citrus seedlings. I hope I can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
