cultivation techniques
1, seedling raising?
The main method is to raise seedlings in nutrient pots. First, this method can shorten the slow seedling stage, make the seedling production robust, make the roots of the seedlings grow well after transplanting, and enhance the stress resistance of the seedlings.
2. Fertilization standard?
Luffa has strong fertility, so it is required to apply enough. Loofah sponge as base fertilizer, lightly applying seedling fertilizer and topdressing melon fertilizer for many times. Generally, organic fertilizer 1 1000 kg, 30 kg ammonium bicarbonate, 25 kg calcium superphosphate and 20 kg plant ash are used as base fertilizer.
Apply 10 kg ammonium bicarbonate and 10 kg phosphate fertilizer immediately after survival. When the small melon grows to about 15cm, 50-60 kg of compound fertilizer should be applied per mu, and it should be ditched and spread 30-40 cm away from the root, and then applied every ten days 1 time.
3. Picking and processing
Generally, the picking standard is that the melon body turns from soft to hard, the handle turns yellow, the pedicel becomes soft and has a yellow ring belt, a slight crack can be heard when the hand is pinched, and the concavity of the pedicel gradually becomes larger.
