Latest Management Technique Highlights for Sea Buckthorn Fruit Cultivation
Sea buckthorn fruit is a fruit with relatively high nutritional value. It has extremely strong drought resistance and can withstand strong wind and sand, so it is widely planted in the northwest region of our country. Sea buckthorn not only has edible value but also certain medicinal effects. It can lower cholesterol in the human body and has effects such as relieving cough and clearing phlegm, and promoting blood circulation and resolving blood stasis. However, although it is relatively simple to cultivate, it still requires correct management methods. Now let's take a look with the editor at how sea buckthorn fruit should be managed when grown!
1. Intertillage and Weeding
Intertillage and weeding are tasks that must be done well when growing any crop, and sea buckthorn fruit is naturally no exception. Although sea buckthorn fruit can grow normally in barren soil and adapts quickly, the quality and yield of the fruit will still be affected to some extent, so intertillage and weeding should be done well according to the growth condition of the plants. The purpose of intertillage is to improve soil permeability, strengthen nutrient absorption from the soil, promote the growth of sea buckthorn fruit, and increase yield and quality. The purpose of weeding is to prevent weeds from competing with sea buckthorn fruit for growth nutrients, because most weeds have very strong absorption capacity.
2. Planting Density
Sea buckthorn fruit plants are relatively thin and small, so many friends cannot control the planting density well when planting, and sometimes planting too densely leads to unsatisfactory growth of sea buckthorn fruit plants. When planting, control the planting density. Generally, the number planted per mu should not exceed 230. And because the sea buckthorn tree is a plant pollinated by male and female plants, the male-to-female ratio of sea buckthorn trees should also be controlled well, usually at a ratio of 8 female trees to 1 male tree. Then, according to the size of the sea buckthorn fruit seedlings, dig planting holes of the proper specifications to ensure that the sea buckthorn fruit trees can grow and develop normally.
3. Shaping and Flower Promotion
The tree shape of sea buckthorn fruit is very messy. If shaping is not done well, the branches of sea buckthorn fruit will become intricate and chaotic, causing insufficient nutrition in the internal branches. We should observe the growth condition of the sea buckthorn trees, remove old branches, weak branches, diseased and disabled branches, dead branches, and other branches, and then treat the pruning wounds properly. Prevent pathogens from infecting the wounds and causing diseases. During the flowering and fruiting stage and the fruit expansion stage of sea buckthorn, timely topdressing should be carried out. During the flower bud differentiation stage, agents such as Cuihuawang can be appropriately sprayed to promote flower bud differentiation. Enhance the nutrient transport of the tree body, reduce flower and fruit drop, and improve the flowering and pollination rate.
4. Growth Management
Sea buckthorn trees have many growth stages, and each growth stage has different management methods. For example, during the seedling stage, the growth rate is relatively slow. We should manage the seedlings well, carry out timely topdressing and watering, promote nutrient absorption by the seedlings, and prevent poor growth of the seedlings caused by malnutrition, which would directly affect the later flowering and fruiting rate and lead to reduced yield. Keep good records of the growth condition of sea buckthorn trees at each growth stage, and remember the approximate time of each growth period, so that preparations can be made in advance later and a correct management method can be ensured.
The above is a brief introduction to how sea buckthorn fruit should be managed when grown. Growing sea buckthorn fruit is actually very simple, and it can survive and grow in most soils. But the main issue is the quality and yield of sea buckthorn fruit, so everyone should still use correct management methods when planting. That is all for today's introduction.
