1. Planting environment
The environment and climate for planting Sichuan chinaberry fruit should be relatively warm, with ample sunlight, fertile soil and deep soil layers, and it can be planted on hills, flat land and wasteland. It has a certain drought resistance and cold resistance, and is also tolerant of barren soil and alkaline soil. If the planting site has strong water retention and fertilizer retention, the plants grow more vigorously. When planting Sichuan chinaberry fruit, land preparation is generally done by pit cultivation; dig pits at a row spacing of three meters and a plant spacing of two meters, with each pit measuring sixty cm wide, sixty cm wide and fifty cm high. Then apply farmyard manure to the pits and wait to plant.
2. Sowing and raising seedlings
Generally speaking, we first sow seeds to raise seedlings, and the sowing time is between the end of February and the end of March each year. If sowing is too late, it will cause poor development, and the latest sowing time cannot be later than the end of March. Before sowing, the seedbed needs to be finely broken up and leveled, and the beds made well; then put the seeds in water to soak for about two to three days, take them out, and sow at a row spacing of thirty cm and a plant spacing of seven to eight cm. Finally, irrigate with clear manure water and wait for the seedlings to emerge.
3. Transplanting seedlings and establishing the plantation
Sichuan chinaberry fruit generally takes about two months to emerge. When the seedlings grow to about ten cm, we need to thin them out, and when the seedlings grow to about thirty cm, we can then transplant and set them in place. Pull out the cultivated saplings together with the base soil, place one seedling in each prepared pit, then cover with soil and compact the ground.
4. Cultivation management
In the first few years after planting, loosening the soil and weeding are generally needed three to four times each year. Also water reasonably according to the weather conditions and the water needs of Sichuan chinaberry fruit. The soil humidity in the plantation is generally kept at about fifty-five to sixty percent. In the early stage, fertilization of Sichuan chinaberry fruit is mainly nitrogen fertilizer, and later when it fruits, farmyard manure and potassium fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer are reasonably used in combination, and foliar fertilizer is sprayed when necessary. Finally, attention should be paid to preventing the harm of cutworms to the seedlings of Sichuan chinaberry fruit, and wettable hexachlorocyclohexane can be sprayed for control.
