1. Choose planting. Jackfruit is suitable for growing in a warm environment. The growth temperature should not be lower than 21℃. Jackfruit should be planted on flat land or hills with an altitude of less than 600 meters. It does not have high soil requirements and is suitable for fertile and well-drained soil. , Plant in slightly alkaline or acidic soil with deep soil.
2. Planting time. Jackfruit can be planted all year round, usually from March to April in spring and from September to November in autumn. Before planting, dig the planting hole, put the seedlings in so that the roots can stretch, cover with fine soil and compact it, preferably parallel to the ground, and finally water it thoroughly and cover it with a layer of mulch.
3. Reasonable fertilization. Jackfruit has little demand for fertilizer. Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied during the seedling stage. Quick-acting fertilizer can be applied once new plants grow. During the fruiting period, an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer or quick-acting fertilizer can be applied to promote the rapid growth of new plants. , which will help promote flowering and fruiting.
4. Water at the right time. Jackfruit requires a lot of water during the flowering and fruit development stages, so water must be replenished in time. Appropriate watering during other growth periods is sufficient. In addition, during rainy seasons, drainage must be carried out in time to prevent water accumulation at the roots, which may lead to plant root rot. thus affecting its normal growth.
5. Shaping and pruning. When the main trunk of jackfruit grows to 1m, all the short branches, overlapping branches, dense branches, cross branches and other branches that have grown can be cut off to prevent nutrients from being consumed. It is generally better to prune in winter. When pruning, first-level Branches can be kept with 3-4 branches, which will help form a good tree structure.
6. Thin the fruit to preserve the fruit. During the fruiting period of jackfruit, in order to ensure the normal growth of good fruits, all inferior fruits such as deformed fruits, dense fruits, etc. should be removed from March to April every year. During fruit thinning, 3-5 can be retained per square meter of crown. Fruit is preferred. In order to prevent pests and diseases and promote fruit enlargement, during the young fruit stage, you can choose to mix foliar fertilizers, insecticides, and fungicides evenly before spraying them, about once every half a month. During the fruit setting stage, you can choose to mix fungicides to kill them. Insecticide can be sprayed every other month.
7. Prevent and control pests and diseases. The main diseases and insect pests of jackfruit include beetles, beetles, soft rot, leaf spot, etc. Therefore, prevention work must be done in advance. If insect pests are found, 600 times liquid chlorpyrifos can be applied to the trunk, or it can be killed directly. Disease prevention and control can be Choose 1500 times chlorothalonil or 1000 times carbendazim.
8. Harvest in time. Jackfruit fruits are generally mature from September to October and can be harvested in time according to the specific region and climate.
