Tomato planting pruning method

Abstract

The invention relates to a tomato planting pruning method, comprising the three steps: first, a tomato plant grows freely before blooming of a bottom ear of the tomato without pruning; second, when the bottom ear of the tomato blooms, pinching, clipping or branch twisting is carried out to a lateral branch; third, sucker picking is carried out when the fruit of the bottom ear of the tomato is expanded with about 3cm of diameter, that is, all lateral branches are removed. By adopting late sucker picking in early stage, the tomato fully utilizes sunlight to promote the growth of the root systemin the early stage, thereby being beneficial to nutrition accumulation in the whole growth period of the tomato, promoting the nutrition distribution of the tomato in the critical time and solving the problem that the bottom ear fruit in the tomato production is small for a long time; in addition, the method is helpful to solving the problem of premature senility of the tomato and laying good foundation for high yield of the tomato.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vegetable planting method, in particular to a pruning method in tomato planting. Background technique [0002] In tomato planting, because tomato side branches have a strong ability to produce side branches, these side branches will compete with tomato fruits for nutrients, that is, consume nutrients, so it is necessary to control the growth of side branches or remove side branches in time. Pruning is to remove redundant side branches. Pruning can reduce nutrient consumption, so as to ensure the normal growth and flowering of the main trunk or remaining fruiting branches; topping means topping. When the remaining fruiting branches reach a certain number of ears and leaves, the The top growth point was removed. Varieties of the self-capping growth type do not have to be topped. Timely and proper topping can control plant height, increase fruit setting rate, and promote fruit development; twisting branches is to first pull ea...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, more fertilization will increase the pollution of soil and groundwater, and reduce the utilization rate of fertilizers. At present, in some major vegetable production areas, the nitrate content in groundwater exceeds the standard by a large margin. , wasting light and heat resources

There is also the problem of premature senility of plants, which is also caused by ignoring the cultivation of the root system in pursuit of extreme high yield

It can be seen that the existing pruning methods make the leaf area of ​​tomatoes smaller for a period of time after flowering, and cannot make good use of sunlight, so the early plants are not strong, and correspondingly, the root system is not developed enough, and the bottom ears and fruits are not strong enough. Easy to grow up, and at the same time prone to premature aging when pursuing high yield
