The invention relates to a planting method of kumquat. The planting method comprises the following steps: turning over orchard land, spraying a herbicide in a full range, digging planting pits with adepth of 60-80 centimeters, a diameter of 40-60 centimeters, and a pit distance of 1.8-2.2 meters, uniformly spreading quick lime in the pits, applying 3-5 kilograms of straw, 3-5 kilograms of chickenmanure, 4-6 kilograms of pig manure and 2-3 kilograms of a composite fertilizer into each pit, carrying out dressing with 30-35 kilograms of urea, 40-45 kilograms of a calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer and 20-25 kilograms of potassium chloride per mu in a growing stage, and carrying out dressing with 17-20 kilograms of a phosphate fertilizer, 8-10 kilograms of a nitrogen fertilizer, 3-5 kilograms of urea, 55-60 kilograms of tung bran and 25-30 kilograms of lime per mu in a fruiting stage, wherein watering is needed and soil moisture is kept during each time of dressing. With the plantingmethod, the growth process of the kumquat is scientifically managed, the conditions required for the growth of the kumquat are reasonably provided, the fruiting formation rules of the kumquat are guaranteed, the fruit size is moderate, and the quality of the kumquat is improved.
