The reasons for the falling flowers and fruits of dragon fruit

Pitaya is a kind of fruit plant that can not only view flowers and fruits, but also eat fruits. Many families grow it as a potted plant. In this way, you can enjoy flowers and fruits during flowering and fruiting, and you can also taste nutritious, sweet and delicious fruits in the mature season.

However, if you want to make pitaya potted plants not only have beautiful plant types, but also blossom and bear fruit as scheduled, and finally eat fruits, maintenance and management work is very important. If the management is not in place, to the flowering and fruiting period may appear the phenomenon of falling flowers and fruits. So, what is it?

The main reason for pitaya flower and fruit drop may be due to poor plant growth and less accumulated nutrients. The reason for this result may be that the fertility of the pot soil is not enough, or due to lack of nutrients due to lack of timely fertilization.

If the nutrients accumulated by pitaya during flowering were too little, not only would the number of flowers be small, but the quality would also be low, so it would definitely affect the subsequent fruit setting rate. In particular, the flowers of the plant are relatively thin and deformed. Even if they can open the flower bud, they will fall off when they bear fruit.

Therefore, in this case, we should try our best to protect the fruit, because the poor flowering effect is too late to change. In order to do a good job of fruit protection, try to keep the fruit trees strong, because tree protection is also an important aspect of fruit protection.

Under normal circumstances, after flowering, we can spray micro-supplement fruit power and boron power to potted pitaya, supplement some phosphorus, potassium, calcium, zinc and boron elements, so as to promote the growth and development of young fruit and reduce abnormal fruit drop. At the same time, it can also spray micro-supplement root strength calcium and energy to promote roots and strong trees, thus achieving the role of protecting trees and fruits.
