Detailed Explanation of Red Fragrant Fruit Cultivation Techniques and Management Methods

Red fragrant fruit is also called red fragrant fruit. This fruit looks bright red, the fruit is oval-shaped, the taste is unique, and the flesh and seeds can be eaten together. This peculiar fruit is native to South America and India. How is it grown? What are the red fragrant fruit cultivation techniques?

Red Fragrant Fruit Cultivation Techniques

1. Red fragrant fruit has strong adaptability. Red fragrant fruit is highly adaptable, with hard leaves and resistance to pests and diseases. It climbs trellises like a gourd, and red fragrant fruit can be grown anywhere watermelons and tomatoes can be grown. To ensure the yield and quality of red fragrant fruit, the soil should be appropriately improved. Apply sufficient base fertilizer or add an appropriate amount of sand.

2. For building an orchard on mountainous land, choose south-facing and east-facing slopes not exceeding 10 degrees; if exceeding this, terraces must be built. The groundwater level must be lower than 1.5 m. Generally, trellis cultivation is used with a plant-to-row spacing of 0.5-1×1.5-2 m. Irrigation is generally used, and drip irrigation can be used if conditions permit. Deeply plow the orchard land 40 cm. The planting trench should be made in the autumn of the previous year; where the soil is fertile, make it shallower, and where it is thin, make it deeper. Usually the trench width is 80 to 100 cm. After the trench is dug and left to weather, apply 5000 kg of organic fertilizer and 200 kg of superphosphate per mu onto the soil piles on both sides of the trench. If conditions permit, place 20 cm of organic matter at the bottom of the trench. When backfilling, first put back the topsoil mixed with manure, then the subsoil mixed with manure, then foreign soil. Put all the excavated soil back to form a soil belt, and in the second year plant the red fragrant fruit in the middle of the dug trench.

3. Red fragrant fruit seeds can be sown all year round, and the best time is 60 days before the beginning of spring, using a small arched shed as the facility for raising seedlings. Before sowing the seeds, prepare a fungicide (carbendazim, copper sulfate) according to the concentration, put the red fragrant fruit seeds into the liquid for 5 minutes, then remove them. After 8 hours, soak them in cool boiled water for 10 hours, then remove them for germination or sowing. Sow at a distance of 10 cm, cover the seeds with 1.5 cm of fine soil, then sprinkle 1 cm of fine sand on top.

4. After sowing, ensure the soil is moist. When the seedlings are about 10 cm, begin spraying pesticides, using carbendazim and chlorothalonil plus foliar fertilizer. If insects are found, add insecticide. Spray once every 10 days, or once every 20 days; alternating pesticides is best.

5. Remove the tendrils on the seedlings at any time. Insert a 1 m stick beside the seedling, and pinch off the growing tip at 50 cm. After the side buds sprout, keep only one bud at the top to grow upward, and pinch off the growing tip once every time it grows 50 cm.

6. Pests and diseases cause great harm to red fragrant fruit, although red fragrant fruit has relatively strong disease resistance. When growing red fragrant fruit, not only should the orchard be disinfected regularly, but prevention work in all aspects should also be done well, cutting off transmission sources as much as possible and reducing the incidence of disease. Frequently observe the orchard and carefully inspect each fruit tree. When any adverse condition is found on any part, corresponding measures should be taken promptly, achieving early detection and early treatment.

7. Red fragrant fruit begins to sprout from late February to early March. The flowering period is from early May to late August, flowering, fruiting, and ripening at the same time. Each branch continuously sets about 4 fruits, and after an interval of 3-4 nodes it continuously sets another 3-4 fruits, repeating in this way. The fresh fruit ripening period is from mid-July to early November. When frost occurs, the leaves fall and the vines wither, entering winter dormancy. Planted in the same year, it bears fruit in the same year.

The introduction to growing red fragrant fruit ends here. This fruit contains a variety of amino acids, minerals, and trace elements essential to the human body, helping the body with physical regulation.
