The Latest Cranberry Planting Techniques, Methods, Tutorial and Conditions
The cranberry is an extremely nutritious fruit, with effects of nourishing yin and tonifying yang, and nourishing qi and blood, so it is deeply loved by women, and therefore its price on the market is also very considerable. First, because of its rarity, and second, because of people's demand, so many people have started wanting to grow cranberries, but are troubled by not having the planting techniques. So today, the editor will take everyone to look at the cranberry's planting techniques and conditions!
1. Variety selection
Many cranberry varieties are wild, and many cranberry plantations are now also established on the original wild berry forests, so the fruits are not large, the color is not attractive, and the yield is unstable. When planting, multiple varieties can be selected. This can reduce risk, stabilize yield, and increase yield as much as possible.
2. Soil selection
The cranberry does not root deeply, so the soil surface should be covered with sand about four to five cm deep. It has relatively high requirements for soil. Peat soil is more suitable for its growth. In this kind of soil, the survival probability is increased while the fruiting period can be extended, ultimately achieving the goal of increasing yield.
3. Planting method
The cultivation technique commonly used in North America is that when planting cranberries, part of the cranberry vines are cut off, scattered in sandy soil, then pressed into the soil, and finally watered and fertilized. Generally, after a few weeks, new roots will grow and they will become new plants, and they will grow better and better.
4. Pollination
Although the cranberry belongs to self-pollination, the yield is very low and the fruits are especially small, so many varieties are planted together and cross-pollinated. Sometimes artificial pollination is also carried out to ensure yield.
5. Water source
There needs to be sufficient water sources around the cranberry orchard, because in China's Greater Khingan Range region, frost sometimes occurs, so that water can be replenished to the soil in time for the growth of cranberries, and at the same time it is also convenient for later real-time harvesting.
6 Harvesting
There are two harvesting methods for cranberries, divided into water harvesting and dry harvesting. Water harvesting requires a large amount of water on the night before the harvest, and then the next day water trucks are used to knock the fruit down, and then it is collected. Dry harvesting does not need so much water. It can basically be said that they are grown dry, and when the fruit matures, it is just picked.
The market demand and economic value of cranberries are both quite good, but there are relatively few environments suitable for cranberry growth, so farmers who want to grow cranberries should pay attention to choosing a good orchard site. Alright, today Qinnongwang's introduction of cranberry planting techniques and conditions ends here. If you want to get more information, the editor is here waiting for you.
