How to fertilize cotton reasonably? A detailed practical guide
Apply flower and boll fertilizer heavily. The flowering and boll stage is the most vigorous growth period in the entire life of cotton. Both the vegetative growth and reproductive growth of cotton reach their peaks, and nutrient demand is greatest. Timely fertilizer supplementation plays a key role in promoting cotton bolls, preventing premature senescence, setting more bolls on all three fruiting branches, and increasing boll weight. In fertilization, the cotton plants should be kept from excessive vegetative growth. For cotton fields with high fertility and vigorous plant growth, topdressing can be delayed until the full flowering stage when 1 to 2 large bolls have formed on the lower part of the plant; for cotton fields with low fertility and weak growth, flower and boll fertilizer should be applied early and heavily at the initial flowering stage. Generally, in mid-to-late July, apply urea per mu

Cotton pruning has its rules: prune reasonably according to local conditions
Conventional cotton pruning is what cotton farmers know best, but the other two pruning methods - simplified pruning and no-pruning - are not so familiar to some. The purpose of cotton pruning is to adjust nutrient distribution, control vegetative growth, promote reproductive growth, regulate plant shape, determine the number of fruit branches, reduce the consumption of nutrients by ineffective flower buds, and promote early maturity. Logically, cotton using conventional pruning should yield more than cotton using simplified pruning and no-pruning, but in production practice, affected by planting density and environmental conditions, this is not entirely the case. Therefore
