2. Planting techniques for red-fleshed kiwifruit

1. Selection of planting site

To make it convenient to transport the fruit out, an area with convenient transportation must be chosen. Because red-fleshed kiwifruit has very vigorous growth, likes light, likes moisture, and adapts to slightly acidic soil, but avoids strong light and high temperatures, waterlogged land, and saline-alkaline soil. Therefore, when choosing land for planting, a sandy loam plot with relatively fertile soil and fairly complete irrigation facilities must be selected, so as to cultivate healthy red-fleshed kiwifruit.

2. Nursery stock cultivation

To ensure the quality of the fruit, the first thing is to ensure the selection of excellent nursery stock for planting. Therefore, the arrangement of nursery stock must be planned well when establishing the orchard, choosing currently available high-quality varieties. When planting nursery stock after the orchard is established, growers can cut and trim the first two or three plump, robust buds of the young shoots, and then carry out grafting treatment on the tender branches of nursery stock set out for one year. In this process, attention must be paid to bud selection, cuts, and pruning so as to avoid damage to the growth and sprouting of the nursery stock. In addition, red-fleshed kiwifruit is also a dioecious vine plant, so when planting, a corresponding portion of male plants must be planted to ensure normal pollination and sprouting of the fruit trees.

3. Pruning and fertilizing

Pruning nursery stock is to promote the growth of the nursery stock and make it grow better and faster. After determining the cultivation trellis style for the nursery stock, growers should pay attention when pruning to retaining the relatively thick and healthy branches of red-fleshed kiwifruit. Specifically, growers can choose the nodes of long canes for pruning, retaining 1 main vine, to effectively prevent dense branches from blocking the nursery stock's normal absorption of sunlight. After pruning, the remaining branches must be disinfected and wrapped to prevent wind and sun exposure from hindering the growth of the nursery stock. As a fruit tree type that likes fertilizer, red-fleshed kiwifruit needs necessary fertilizing and topdressing, with 3~5 fertilizer applications a year. During its important growth stages, regular irrigation and fertilization must be carried out, such as topdressing after the Beginning of Spring when the young buds of the red-fleshed kiwifruit tree begin to sprout. Especially in the most vigorous stage of growth, flowering and fruiting, fertilizer should be applied as appropriate, generally quick-acting fertilizer or zinc fertilizers, to ensure enhanced tree vigor and disease resistance and to ensure healthy and stable fruit growth.

4. Weeding

In the cultivation process of red-fleshed kiwifruit, the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides must be reduced as much as possible. Growers can use specially made mosquito-killing lamps and other physical means to eliminate pests and reduce the use of herbicides. Growers can use small weeders to carry out 2 weeding operations in late June and late September, and at the same time place the harvested weeds in the red-fleshed kiwifruit planting area and under the trellis, which not only has the effect of cooling and moisturizing the land, but can also turn them into green manure.

Conclusion

The scientific and rational planting of red-fleshed kiwifruit can effectively protect local soil and water, avoid soil erosion, and also effectively use local resources to further improve the ecological environment. Therefore, the successful cultivation of red-fleshed kiwifruit has greatly promoted the development of the regional economy.
