When planting pitaya, you should choose a larger clay pot, because the clay pot has better air permeability. More drainage holes should be drilled at the bottom of the basin to drain the water in the flowerpot. Because pitaya is suitable for neutral or slightly acidic soil, neutral or slightly acidic soil can be selected, and humus soil and river sand can be used in a certain proportion.

The most suitable season for planting pitaya is spring every year, and the specific time is around April and May in spring, because the temperature at this time is more suitable for the growth of pitaya, but pitaya can be planted all year round.

Planting techniques of pitaya

1, flowerpot

When planting pitaya, you should choose a larger clay pot, because the clay pot has better air permeability. More drainage holes should be made at the bottom of the basin to drain the water in the flowerpot.

2. Land

Because pitaya is suitable for neutral or slightly acidic soil, neutral or slightly acidic soil can be selected, and humus soil and river sand can be used in a certain proportion.

Step 3 cut

When sowing seedlings, don't bury them too deep, just about 3 cm. After planting, fix them with shelves. When planting pitaya, cutting is easier to survive than seeds.

Pitaya management method

1, moisture

Water 1 time every 2-3 days in young fruit period and every 3-4 days in dry period. If it rains continuously in rainy days, it is necessary to drain water in time to avoid root rot caused by lack of oxygen.

Step 2 apply fertilizer

When pitaya grows luxuriantly, nitrogen fertilizer is the main fertilizer, which is conducive to rapid growth and vigorous growth. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer are mainly applied in the middle and late growth stage to increase plant photosynthesis.
