Sowing melon is suitable for direct seeding, as early cultivation requires seedling transplantation. Warm soup seed soak available 55 degrees water for 1 minute, and then cool down to 25 degrees can be, 6 hours after the fish out a little drying, and then germination, (germination temperature mastered at 28 degrees or so) when the seed germination white when the seed sowing urgently.
Seedling can choose 65 holes of black seedling hole tray, seedling (average temperature of 15 degrees above) seedling age of about 35 days. To 3 - 5 leaf stage seedling age can be planted in the field. Open field melon planting!
Row spacing row spacing 1. 7 - 2m, plant spacing 30-40cm, planting, each hole a plant 3-4 true leaves large seedlings, direct broadcasting 2-3 true leaves between the seedlings once, 4-5 true leaves fixed seedlings, melon seedling position can be in the middle of the beds or on the side of the beds, pulling the melon vines grow.
Centering the whole vine melon fruit is mainly born in the children and grandchildren on the vine, must be centered, whole vine, promote the results. The general use of six vines: melon vines 5-6 leaves, leave 4 leaves picking, leave 2 sub-vines, and then each sub-vine to leave 3 grandchildren vines. Open ground melon planting!
Playing grass, turning the melon fruit contact with the ground, susceptible to yellow guard melon larvae damage. Cause quality decline or yield reduction, so the introduction of vine spread grass under the vine. When the melon grows to half large, turn the melon at the right time, is also conducive to avoiding insect pests, and can make the melon coloring and flavor consistency. Open ground melon planting!
Forcing fertilizer, irrigation fertilizer should pay attention to the use of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, after picking the heart, per mu with 500kg of dried human feces and cake fertilizer 50-100kg, ring applied to the root outside 10cm, cover the soil and then apply 100-200kg of grass ash, in order to promote the children and grandchildren of the occurrence of the vine and the early development of the fruit. Open field melon planting! After each subsequent harvest, 200-300kg of diluted manure and 5kg of calcium superphosphate are applied per mu to ensure fruit growth and development. Melon on the water requirements are also more stringent, seedling period to control the main, appropriate squatting; the first flower and fruiting period to promote the combination of control, to prevent futility, melons; and the mid to late management should be strengthened irrigation, in order to adapt to high temperatures and the melon, the seedling exuberant growth needs.
