Before the gourd blooms, attention should be paid to water and fertilizer management. Water and fertilizer management should be done well before the gourd blooms. Gourd is a kind of plant that likes heat very much. In the process of growth, in order to promote the rapid growth of gourd, sufficient light can be provided for its growth. Long-term illumination can make the gourd work, and to a certain extent, it can prolong the flowering period of the gourd, and thin fertilizer should be applied frequently before flowering. Applying more potassium fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer can promote the flowering of gourd, and it will begin to bear fruit after the flowering period falls.
Choose the environment for growing gourds. When planting at home, you can put it on the balcony, water it in time, provide enough water, and set up a certain bracket. After the gourd is formed, it will begin to climb and grow on the scaffold.
Do a good job in pest control before flowering. In the early flowering period of gourd, it is necessary to prevent and control pests and diseases, especially in the maintenance period, when the growth of small gourd has stopped, it needs to be sprayed regularly, usually once every 20 to 30 days, and it also needs to be sprayed regularly during the growth period, which can effectively prevent the gourd from encountering pests and diseases and is more conducive to the growth of branches, leaves, stems and leaves of gourd. In addition, the gourd should be maintained according to the season, and the environment should be relatively humid during growth. You can spray water mist around regularly to cool and moisturize.
After the gourd is formed, it is necessary to control fertilizer and water in the later stage, and the gourd begins to form on the vine. At this time, it is necessary to control the water and fertilizer to prevent the flowers of the gourd from falling off quickly because of too much water. During the maintenance period, it is necessary to pollinate the gourd artificially, usually once a week, which can make the gourd bear fruit quickly.
Pollination can improve the fruit setting rate of gourd, and insects can be used for pollination when planting. After the small gourd is produced, it should be given enough light to ensure the rapid growth of the gourd. After the small gourd emerges, the towing management should be done well. If possible, you can wrap a paper cover on the outside of the small gourd to facilitate its growth.
In a word, gourd is a plant that likes heat very much, but it needs to control water and fertilizer after flowering. Too much water and fertilizer may cause the flowers of the gourd to fall off quickly, but it is not enough to bear the gourd. In the process of gourd growth, it is necessary to prevent and control pests and diseases, and ensure that enough light can reach many beautiful gourds.
