Cucumber is a very common vegetable in China, which has a large planting area in the north and south of our country. It is a kind of vegetable that can produce melons continuously, but when many people are planting cucumbers, because the planting technology is not mature, it is difficult to produce melons continuously for a long time. So when we are planting, how can we make cucumbers produce melons continuously? Today, the editor has brought you the planting skills of continuous cucumber. Let's take a look at it.

1. Plant adjustment

When growing cucumbers, if you want cucumbers to produce high yields continuously. Then we must ensure the growth of melon vines, melon vine growth is the key to ensure that cucumbers produce melons normally. That is, before cucumbers bear melons, strong plants should be cultivated. As the growth of cucumber gradually enters the fruiting stage, it is necessary to adjust the plant. Ensure that the functional leaves on the cucumber plant are about 16. If there are too few functional leaves, the accumulation of photosynthetic matter in cucumber plants becomes less. Thus unable to provide sufficient nutrition for cucumber to grow.

2. Fall the vine at the right time

Falling vine is also an important measure to ensure continuous melon formation of cucumber, and it is also an indispensable management work when planting cucumber. In the time of falling vine, the length of falling vine should not exceed 20cm, so as to avoid too long falling vine and lead to too few leaves. Thus affecting the growth of melon strips at the bottom of the plant. And when the vine falls, we should also pay attention to remove the old leaves, diseased leaves and tendrils of cucumbers. To prevent these leaves from robbing the growth and nutrition of melons and fruits, professional data surveys have shown that generally two tendrils or so will consume the nutrients needed for the growth of melon strips.

3. Fertilizer and water management

Fertilizer application is very important in the growth of cucumber. Fertilizers should be mainly organic fertilizers to ensure that organic fertilizers are fully mature and less chemical fertilizers are used. When applying fertilizer, you can usually apply an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer each time. Then when watering, we should also pay attention to observe the weather changes. And should be linked with the growth of the plant for fertilizer and water management. For example, in the growth of cucumber, if you see the curly phenomenon of cucumber tendrils, then the change means that the cucumber is short of water and needs to be watered in time. Then in the later stage of growth, an appropriate amount of leaf fertilizer should be applied. Supplement growth nutrients for leaves, enhance plant resistance and avoid premature senescence of cucumbers.

4. Disease control

Disease control is also very important. In recent years, downy mildew, vine blight and angular spot are the most serious diseases of cucumber. These diseases will harm cucumber leaves and lead to the decline of cucumber leaf function. Therefore, we must pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases, commonly used agents can be used, such as Pricket and Garrinon. However, it is mainly based on prevention, do a good job of management, control fertilizer and water, ensure the normal growth of cucumbers, improve the rate of melon and the time of continuous melon.

The above is a brief introduction of cucumber continuous melon planting skills. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
