Methods and techniques of loofah
The loofah is our home-cooked food, and often a family in the countryside grows a few trees and has vegetables to eat for a few months. However, when planting, there is often only a phenomenon of growing seedlings, not bearing melons or premature aging of melon seedlingsIn fact, the root cause is the problem of soil and fertilization. When more chemical fertilizers are applied, resulting in nutrient imbalance and excess vegetative growth of plants, the problem of not bearing melons will occur. The premature senescence is due to soil compaction, the root system is difficult to root, the expansion range is limited, and the nutrients cannot be absorbed sufficiently, which cannot meet the needs of growth and reproduction. To solve these problems, you can take a look at the following points.
1. Dig deep planting pits. The loofah planting is relatively thin, and the soil is loosened by digging planting pits, which facilitates the smooth expansion of young roots, guides the taproot to take root, and better absorbs nutrients deep in the soil, which is conducive to cultivating strong seedlings.
2. Increase the application of organic fertilizer. Soil miscellaneous fertilizer is naturally decomposed in the planting pit, which can achieve the purpose of soil fertility, and does not need to be completely manure-based organic fertilizer. That is not conducive to cultivating strong seedlings, and will form strong seedlings, which is not conducive to the differentiation of female flowers. Note that you can turn it up and down after the year to make it evenly rotted up and down.
3. Seal the soil and organize the planting pit. Twenty days before planting, the soil dug out of the planting pit can be backfilled into the pit and covered with soil miscellaneous manure with a thickness of about 15 cm. Note that there is no need to fertilize before sowing, and the seedling stage can be used for top dressing, which can not only cultivate strong seedlings, but also control the vigorous growth.
This method ** in an old melon farmer more than 20 years of planting experience, you may wish to try it, I hope that everyone's loofah can produce more melons and early melons!
