Fruit-reserving pruning method capable of prolonging oriental sweet melon

Abstract

The invention relates to a fruit-reserving pruning method capable of prolonging oriental sweet melon. The method includes: after the oriental sweet melon bears fruits, reserving a son tendril on a master tendril in advance as a main tendril for culture, selecting two son tendrils on a second main tendril for fruit-reserving when first-crop fruits are big enough, pinching when the second main tendril grows with 10-12 sections, selecting and culturing a strong son tendril to be a third main tendril after second-crop fruits set, selecting two son tendrils on the third main tendril for third-cropfruit-reserving, reserving one fruit on each son tendril, pinching the son tendrils after fruit bearing, pinching the master tendril, and sequentially operating till fourth-crop fruits and fifth-cropfruits. By constantly updating the master tendril in advance after fruit bearing, the oriental sweet melon maintains vigorous plant vitality, and long-growth-period fruit bearing and harvesting for marketing are realized. Temperature holding performance of a sunlight greenhouse in winter is brought into full play, fruit-reserving can reach 4-5 crops during cultivation in the sunlight greenhouse while advanced marketing is realized, and utilization rate of the sunlight greenhouse and yield and benefit of the oriental sweet melon are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crop melon pruning, in particular to a melon pruning method for prolonging the growth period of thin-skinned melons. Background technique [0002] In the cultivation and planting of thin-skinned melons, the side buds of melons have a very strong growth ability, and they continue to grow from the main vines in the early stage, causing the nutrition of the plants to disperse. The melons are planted in a solar greenhouse, and the growth period is long. The traditional technology of keeping melons on twin vines is adopted. Harvest After the first batch of melons, the vines are retained to retain the melons, which will cause premature aging of the plants, resulting in a short utilization period of the solar greenhouse, which is not conducive to improving the planting efficiency of melons. Therefore, the pruning and melon retention technology in the melon planting process is a crucial technology in the melon gr...

Problems solved by technology

When the first crop of melons grows to a large enough size, the second crop of melons will be retained from the main vines, because the first crop of melons will affect the second crop of melons. Generally, 1 to 2 melons will be left, and the growth of the second crop of melons will be weak. , and the commerciality is slightly poor. Using this cultivation technique of pruning and retaining melons, the thin-skinned melons in the solar greenhouse generally retain 2 crops of melons. The maturity period is not concentrated, the melons have a large difference in size, the product value is low, and the economic benefit is low, which is not conducive to giving full play to the advantages of the lon
