Seedling Management techniques of Apricot

The selection of an excellent variety is an important condition for planting apricot trees. Drought-tolerant varieties should be selected according to local conditions. Drought-tolerant apricot varieties have good fruit quality and high yield, which is more suitable for seeds. So how do apricot trees grow seedlings? Let's take a look at the apricot seedling management technology with the editor.

1. Cultivation of apricot seedlings.

Seed selection for cultivating apricot seedlings is a key link, which is related to the local high yield of apricot trees. After seed selection, in order to ensure the emergence rate of spring sowing, the seeds can be stratified in winter, that is, sand storage. Choose a shady and dry place, dig the pit according to the sand storage standard, adjust the length, width and height according to the sand storage standard, soak the seeds with clean water, then stir with wet river sand, and stir according to the standard. After the seeds are mixed, now cover the bottom of the pit with a layer of wet sand, and then put the seeds into the pit until the mouth of the pit is about 30 centimeters. The top needs to be filled with wet sand. Finally, the soil is piled up beyond the ground, and the height of the pile is appropriate to prevent stagnant water.

2. Sowing seeds

Sowing can be divided into two types: spring sowing or autumn sowing, which need to be adjusted according to the local climatic conditions. basically, the sowing method mainly adopts the method of trenching, first of all, the ditch should be developed with appropriate width and maintain a certain row spacing, all of which should be determined in accordance with apricot planting standards. Grafted seedlings can also be cultivated, first of all, there must be requirements for the collection of scions, the trees must now be relatively strong, and there are no diseases and insect pests, good varieties of adult trees for harvest. The collection of developing branches, it is best to set up the most suitable within a year, and then adopt the eight-shaped bud grafting method to cultivate grafted seedlings of apricot trees.

3. Colonization

After the seedlings are ready, the seedlings with strong plants, full bud eyes and no disease phenomenon need to be selected and soaked in water for one day. Before planting, the soil needs to be turned deeply, the depth should be about 20-30 cm, and after the deep turning, the soil needs to be leveled and then raked fine.
