Detailed Explanation of Key Points of Jujube Tree Planting and Management Techniques
When planting jujube trees, more attention needs to be paid to management issues, so that the jujube trees can maintain continuous high yields. So what aspects of management mainly need attention for jujube trees? Let's take a look below at the key points of jujube tree planting and management.
1. Prune in time
Pruning of fruit trees plays a very important role, because the growth of fruit trees can be adjusted through pruning. Pruning jujube trees is not only done after harvest; in fact, appropriate pruning can also be done before and after fruiting. Before fruiting, pruning is used to improve the quality and quantity of the fruit, maximize the use of nutrients by the fruit trees, and ensure that most of the fruit can enjoy sunlight. After harvest, the main task is to clean up some weak branches and useless branches on the jujube tree, so as to reduce nutrient loss during the winter and welcome the arrival of the new year in better condition.
2. Adequate fertilizer and water
Fertilizer and water are the main sources of nutrients for jujube trees. Many growers tend to overlook this aspect, and usually do nothing after fertilizing. Fertilization of jujube trees should be done according to different stages. The fertilizers needed at each stage are different, and the application methods are also different. Some can be applied directly, and some can be applied using the water-fertilizer mode. Fertilization is roughly once every 1-2 months, while watering depends on the weather conditions of that year. Ensuring an adequate supply of fertilizer and water is enough.
3. Apply fertilizer evenly
Nowadays, people who grow jujube trees pay more and more attention to using chemical fertilizers, and gradually they even stop using organic fertilizers. This method is actually not very good for the development of jujube trees. Long-term use of chemical fertilizers will cause a decline in the yield and quality of the fruit trees. So the best approach is to apply fertilizer evenly, mainly organic fertilizer, with chemical fertilizer as a supplement. Organic fertilizer is still very easy to obtain nowadays. Do not be stingy with this little money; organic fertilizer is very cheap, and long-term use can also increase the full-bearing period of jujube trees to a certain extent.
4. Joint prevention of pests and diseases
Both pests and diseases are relatively common situations in jujube trees, but because some diseases are not very obvious in the early stages, more and more people are paying attention to pest problems. This leads to inadequate prevention of some diseases, and the frequency of diseases is also increasing. The harm of diseases is no less than that of pests. When preventing pests, you should also pay more attention to diseases, so as not to be caught unprepared.
The above are some of the management key points when planting jujube trees. Everyone must pay more attention to these situations. Every year some people suffer losses on these issues. If you want to learn more information, you can follow us!
