Pruning and fruit setting method for thick skin netted muskmelon

Abstract

The invention discloses a pruning and fruit setting method for thick skin netted muskmelon. The method comprises the steps of by retaining two reproduction vines and one nutrition vine during seedling growth period, removing lateral buds and lateral vines, pinching, and pruning tips of the seedlings in due time, selecting 11-14 nodes of sub vines, and meanwhile, retaining two muskmelons. The photosynthesis areas of crops are enlarged by retaining the nutrition vines, so that the reproduction vines can be supplemented with nutrients sufficiently, cannot be subjected to premature senility, fruits on the reproduction vines can absorb more nutrients, and further the seedlings can develop and grow rapidly; water and fertilizer management can be reinforced timely, so that a muskmelon facility can produce in an early, high-yield and high-efficiency manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of agricultural planting, in particular to a method for pruning thick-skinned muskmelons and retaining fruits. Background technique [0002] In the cultivation of thick-skinned muskmelon, because the side vines of melons are strong, especially in the early stage of melon growth, the side vines have a stronger ability to produce side vines, basically there are stubbles, and the competition for the main vines is serious, resulting in the growth of the main vines. Slow; during the fruit setting period and the fruit growth period, the lateral vines of melons are also strong, and they will compete with the melon fruits for nutrients, which seriously affects the early maturity and total yield of the melons, resulting in late fruit ripening, small fruits, poor fruit uniformity, and poor quality. Poor, poor commodity, low yield, low production efficiency, seriously affecting the economic income of melon farmers. Th...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] The above two currently mainly used methods for wholeing melon vines do not give full play to the potential of the crop itself in the protected cultivation of melons. The plants are prone to premature aging, and the benefit of increasing per mu cannot be improved, resulting in low income for melon farmers.
