How many Gonggan trees should be planted per mu? What is the yield per mu
Gonggan is a hybrid fruit, produced by crossing an orange and a mandarin. Gonggan has very high edible value, and it tastes very good, so it is deeply loved by people. Now many people want to grow it, but before planting, surely everyone is more concerned about its yield per mu and the specific number of trees to plant per mu!
How many Gonggan trees should be planted per mu
About 55 to 60 Gonggan trees are planted per mu. When planting Gonggan, as for the choice of time, generally the period from September to November each year is the best. When planting, the spacing should be chosen well; you can use the density of 3m plant spacing × 4m row spacing for planting, which will be more beneficial to its growth.
What is the yield of Gonggan per mu
The yield of Gonggan per mu is generally about 1200 to 1800 jin, and some people may even get a bit more. The yield per mu mainly depends on one's own planting skills and management methods. It is also inseparable from factors such as geography and climate. As long as all the conditions are met, its yield per mu will naturally be a bit higher.
Gonggan cultivation techniques
1. Site selection: When selecting a site, soil rich in organic matter is generally best. When planting Gonggan, you must choose a sunny place, and the soil drainage system must be done well.
2. Planting method: When planting, apply base fertilizer well, and the planting spacing is 3m × 4m row spacing. After planting, press it firm with some fine soil, then water it. About four days after planting, you can insert bamboo to support the seedlings.
3. Watering: In autumn and winter, do the work of irrigation well; in summer, you need to do the work of draining accumulated water well. For old trees, water needs to be controlled; do not water too much.
4. Fertilizing: In the first year, mainly apply bud-promoting fertilizer, with a ratio of about 150 grams of urea plus 50 kg of water; this can water ten fruit trees. In the second year, mainly apply shoot-promoting fertilizer, using about 100 grams of urea plus about 100 grams of compound fertilizer. In the third year, the amount should be a little larger, about 250 grams of compound fertilizer and about 150 grams of urea. For young trees, generally some organic fertilizer is enough.
5. Pruning: For young trees, 3-4 rounds of shoots need to be kept each year; after one year, 4 rounds of shoots need to be kept, and in the third year, 3 rounds of shoots. When new shoots sprout, remove those about 3 cm long, and wait until 80% of the trees in the whole orchard have sprouted, then release the shoots uniformly. When new shoots are about 6 cm long, some weak shoots should be removed, keeping 3 relatively strong shoots on each one.
When planting Gonggan, the number of trees per mu generally needs to be controlled at about 60 trees; too many is actually not good. As long as Gonggan is planted well, the yield per mu is actually quite good. When planting, planting techniques are also very key; some detailed introductions are given above, and I hope they can be of some help to everyone.
