Greenhouse Grape Growing Technique Tutorial: Detailed Explanation of the Latest Methods
Grapes are a very common fruit in all regions, and the peak season for grapes is generally in winter and spring. In the past, because of seasonal and technical reasons, grapes could only be eaten in season, but now grape growing techniques have gradually matured, and now grapes can be eaten even out of season. The main approach is greenhouse cultivation, so today I have brought you the greenhouse grape growing technique. Let us take a look below!
1. Variety Selection
For growing grapes in a greenhouse, we first need to select suitable planting varieties. Varieties suitable for greenhouse cultivation should be grapes with a short growth cycle and high sugar content. For example, Kyoho and Muscat Hamburg, etc. When selecting varieties, we must comprehensively consider the local growing environment, market demand and prospects, etc. The planting variety must first of all be guaranteed to have strong adaptability. For example, if growing in the north, because the temperature is relatively low and the temperature difference is also relatively large, the planting variety must be guaranteed to have good adaptability to temperature changes.
2. Greenhouse Location
The yield of greenhouse-grown grapes is directly affected by the choice of greenhouse location. If planting on a place with a large slope, then the greenhouse should be built on higher ground. This can ensure that the greenhouse has good drainage and sufficient light. Light is the key to ensuring high yield of greenhouse grapes and can increase the sugar content of grapes. Then there is the need to pay attention to selecting good soil. The planting soil must be guaranteed to have sufficient fertility and strong permeability. High-quality soil is also the key to ensuring the normal growth of grapes.
3. Flower and Fruit Management
When growing grapes in a greenhouse, if there is no artificial release of bees, then there are no natural bees to pollinate them. Therefore, during the flowering and fruiting period of grapes, we must do a good job of artificial pollination. If there is no pollination, the number of flowers and fruits of the grapes will be reduced, affecting the planting benefits. After pollination, the fruit clusters grown by the grape plants should be properly thinned. Remove some grape fruit clusters of poor quality and those that are too poor, and keep fruit reasonably. One fruit cluster per branch is enough, and then when the berry diameter grows to about 1 cm, promptly remove diseased berries, deformed berries and other undesirable fruits.
4. Environmental Control
As just mentioned, light is still very important for the growth of grapes. If the local natural light duration is not long enough, then we must promptly do a good job of artificial supplemental lighting to meet the light needs of grape growth. Then there is the need to do a good job of temperature regulation. Grapes have different temperature requirements at different growth stages. Therefore, we should reasonably adjust the temperature according to weather changes and the growth period of the grapes. The temperature should not be too high. When the temperature is too high, cooling can be carried out through ventilation and spraying water, etc.
The above is a brief introduction to greenhouse grape growing techniques. The fertilizer and water management of greenhouse grapes is similar to ordinary cultivation, so everyone can carry out watering and fertilizing work according to the fertilizer and water management measures of ordinary growing methods. That is all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only, and I hope it can help everyone!
