The Latest Yellow Peach Planting Techniques and Method Tutorial

The yellow peach is a cultivated variety used both for fresh eating and for processing. It has the advantages of fast growth, early fruiting and high yield. It is rich in nutrients, containing various trace elements, dietary fiber and vitamins needed by the human body, and is highly favored by consumers in the market, with relatively high economic returns. So how should yellow peaches be planted? Let's take a look.

1. Site selection and land preparation

To grow yellow peaches well and quickly, it is best to choose a plot with loose, fertile soil, relatively high terrain, sufficient water sources, convenient drainage and irrigation, and ample sunlight. After choosing the planting site, dig the planting holes in advance; the depth and height of the holes should be about 1 m. After digging, apply base fertilizer, preferably decomposed farmyard manure with an appropriate amount of urea or compound fertilizer. After fertilizing, cover the fertilizer with a thin layer of soil to avoid direct contact between the plant roots and the fertilizer, so as not to burn them.

2. Seed selection and seedling purchase

There are quite a lot of yellow peach varieties on the market, so we should choose the most suitable variety according to the local climate and environment; for example, Huangguan and Huanglu are both good varieties. After choosing the variety, it is time to buy the saplings. When buying saplings, choose ones with well-developed, thick roots and branches; saplings about 85 cm tall are the best, as they have a high survival rate after planting and also produce a relatively high yield later. In addition, pay attention to whether the saplings show signs of pest or disease damage.

3. Timely planting

The planting time for yellow peaches differs somewhat from that of other fruit trees. Generally, planting can be done in late winter and early spring or in winter, but no later than the end of February, as this clearly helps improve the survival rate of the saplings. Hold the young tree upright and place it into the previously dug planting hole, spread the root system out, then fill in soil. When backfilling, gently lift the stem so that the roots and soil are closely connected, then make the filled soil higher than the planting hole.

4. Field management

After planting, water appropriately and keep the soil suitably moist to help improve the survival rate. At this stage, carefully observe the growth of the young trees, and after half a month, replant those that have not survived in time. The most important part of field management is fertilization. During the young tree stage, fertilization should be done by applying thin fertilizer frequently, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, to promote the growth of branches and leaves, while also doing well in pruning, trunk training and bud removal. During the fruiting stage, fertilizer and water are extremely important, and topdressing should be done multiple times to improve the fruit-setting rate and yield.
