1. To prepare for planting camellia oleifera, we should first investigate and choose the afforestation site. Choose the soil. Although camellia oleifera is barren-tolerant, yes, fertile soil is still one of the conditions to create high yield. Choose a slope with a slope less than 25 degrees and plenty of sunshine. Soil, including metamorphic rocks, sandstone, granite, yellow red soil, yellow soil and red loam formed by weathering. Generally, the thicker the soil, the better. The thickness of the soil layer should not be less than one meter.
2. Cultivate seedlings. Camellia oleifera seedlings have a relatively high demand for nutrients. Under the condition of sufficient organic fertilizer and nitrogen fertilizer, the seedlings grow well and root quickly. Proper supplementation of phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer is easy to form strong seedlings. In summer and autumn dry season, timely watering is very beneficial to the growth of Camellia oleifera seedlings. When the rainy season comes, we should also pay attention to flood prevention. Generally, it takes 4-5 years from planting seedlings to yield income, which takes a long time and requires a lot of continuous investment. Therefore, before there is no economic benefit, reasonable arrangements can be made in the oil-tea tree forest to not affect the growth of oil-tea trees and plant leguminous plants to alleviate the dilemma of capital investment. Weeds should be removed in time to avoid affecting the growth of camellia oleifera.
3. Cultivate a reasonable tree shape. Cultivate properly grown and strong lateral branches into trunk. Next year, leave lateral buds on the main stem and cultivate them into lateral branches that can bear fruit in the future. When pruning, try to rebuild branches and overlapping branches that are harmful to pests and diseases. Try to keep the bearing branches and spring shoots in the inner chamber. Camellia oleifera is characterized by the need for fertilizer. In the young tree period, it is mainly to grow trees. In thinking, it pays more attention to nitrogen fertilizer. In the flowering and fruiting period of Camellia oleifera, the content of phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer should be appropriately increased, and boron fertilizer should be applied in combination.
4. Control of pests and diseases of camellia oleifera. The pests and diseases of camellia oleifera are mainly prevention, supplemented by treatment. Generally, pests are cultivated as natural enemies of camellia oleifera pests. When spraying pesticides, try not to spray pesticides harmful to natural enemies. Generally, spraying pesticides and using biological agents as far as possible is very beneficial to protect natural enemies of pests such as red ladybug and black-edged ladybug. Diseases and insect pests of camellia oleifera are generally. Soft rot, anthracnose, bituminous coal disease. Insect pests include scarabs, tea caterpillars, sawflies, weevils, tea-tip moths, longicorn beetles, stem borers, weevils, ant frogs and so on.
5. Points for attention in harvesting Camellia oleifera. Generally, Camellia oleifera is harvested twice, once in the cold dew season. This time, it is only suitable for picking cold dew seeds, not first frost seeds, and first frost seeds can be picked after first frost. Proper picking can improve the oil yield, which must be grasped well.
