Detailed Explanation of Cranberry Planting Techniques and Cultivation Conditions

Cranberry is an extremely nutrient-rich fruit with effects of nourishing yin and tonifying yang, and nourishing qi and blood, so it is deeply loved by the vast number of women, and therefore its price on the market is also very considerable. One reason is its rarity, and the other is people's demand, so many people have begun to want to grow cranberries, but they suffer from a lack of planting techniques. So today, the editor will take everyone to look at cranberry planting techniques and conditions!

1. Variety Selection

Many cranberry varieties are wild, and many cranberry bogs are now established on the basis of the original wild berry bogs, so the fruits are not large, the color is not attractive, and the yield is unstable. When planting, multiple varieties can be selected, which can reduce risk, stabilize yield, and increase yield as much as possible.

2. Soil Selection

Cranberry does not root deeply, so the soil surface should be covered with sand about 4 to 5 cm deep. It has relatively high requirements for soil, and peat soil is more suitable for its growth. In this kind of soil, the survival probability is increased, and at the same time 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, scattered in sandy soil, and then pressed into the soil, and finally watered and fertilized. Generally, after a few weeks, new roots will grow and become new plants, and they will grow better and better.

4. Pollination

Although cranberry belongs to self-pollination, the yield is very low, and the fruits are especially small, so many varieties are planted mixed together for cross-pollination, and sometimes artificial pollination is also carried out to ensure yield.

5. Water Source

There needs to be sufficient water sources around the cranberry bog, because in the Greater Khingan Mountains region of China, 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 subsequent timely 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 harvest, and then the next day water carts are used to knock the fruits down, and then they are collected. Dry harvesting does not require so much water; it can basically be said that they are grown dry, and it is enough to pick them after the fruits mature.

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 plant cranberries should pay attention to choosing a good bog site. Alright, that is where today's introduction from Qinnong Net to everyone on cranberry planting techniques and conditions ends. If you want to get more information, the editor is waiting for you here.
