What are the benefits of hanging bitter melon vines early? What are the reasons? Is there a netizen who can help explain?Zhongdiwang has compiled the benefits and reasons for hanging bitter melon vines early, and the following is a detailed introduction for netizens' reference.
Benefit one of hanging bitter melon vines early: It can cultivate strong plants:
During the seedling stage, the bitter melon vines and cucumber vines are hung up together, which allows bitter melon to grow as robustly as cucumber and ensures that it overwinters safely. It should be noted that when bitter melon grows to 1.5 m, in order not to let it grow taller and affect cucumber growth, the bitter melon stem and vine can be bent downward so that its growing tip points down, thereby inhibiting its apical dominance. When you want it to grow, straighten the stem and vine again, and it will resume growth.
Benefit two of hanging bitter melon vines early: It can prevent freezing damage in deep winter:
Bitter melon growth requires relatively high temperatures, and the suitable growth temperature is 20°C~30°C. In deep winter, however, the soil temperature is relatively low. If the bitter melon vines are not hung up early and are allowed to sprawl on the ground, they are likely to be frozen.
