The water requirement during whole growth stages of Hami melon is not high, which is determined by soil moisture, topography and the growth period of Hami melon. You can expand the water once and cooperate with fertilization. Fertilization can be based on the growth of plants, spraying plant nutrient solution after living trees to promote the growth of trees. When plants grow weakly, compound fertilizer extract can be used to increase the application of extended tendrils to grow fertilizer. Top-dressing 1 ~ 2 times 30cm away from the root, applying compound fertilizer 10 ~ 15kg per mu, or spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate leaves. Half a month before picking fruit, watering and fertilization must be stopped to prevent fruit cracking.

Hami melon requires a lot of soil. Usually, it can't be short of water, but it can't be too much. Otherwise, it will cause soil hardening and poor soil permeability, which will easily lead to the lack of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and reduce the yield. Moreover, Hami melon has strict requirements on temperature. Too low temperature will reduce the disease resistance, yield and quality of melon. The optimum temperature for the growth of Hami melon is 2 1 ~ 28℃. Too high is above 40℃, too low is below 18℃.

Hami melon is a short-day plant with sufficient sunlight and is sensitive to light intensity. When the light is insufficient, the photosynthesis is weakened, the melon cell division is poor, the melon seeds are not full, the yield is reduced, and the melon body becomes soft. Therefore, cantaloupe needs high illumination, and insufficient illumination causes leaves to scorch and melon seeds to fall off. Therefore, if cantaloupe is to thrive, the more sunshine, the higher the yield.

Before the cantaloupe grows to more than 10 ~ 15 cm, appropriate topdressing should be applied to cantaloupe, with topdressing of 20 ~ 25 kg of calcium superphosphate per mu. In the growth process of Hami melon, a lot of potassium fertilizer is needed. In order to increase the yield, potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be used. Rotten organic fertilizer can be topdressing per mu, and decomposed human and animal manure can be used for topdressing, and drip irrigation or sprinkler irrigation belt can be used appropriately to improve water use efficiency.
