1, sowing seedlings:
Spring sowing period 1-3 months, autumn sowing period 7-8 months; Hunan, Hubei by the end of March. The seed germination power of pumpkin is relatively strong. Generally, it is not necessary to sow germination for seeding. Early spring sowing can use the nutrition cup or nutrient pods for cold nursery, until the temperature rises after the colonization. Later sowing, generally using live (hole sowing), 2-3 seeds per hole, spacing 2 meters, 50 cm spacing, after sowing cover 2-3 cm.
2, field management:
Fertilization: Before planting, the soil is deep-turned, and at the same time, 2000-3000 kilograms of pig manure is applied. After the plants reach out, 15 to 20 cm from the root, ditch cultivation, Mushi 500 to 1,000 kg of soil-fertilizer or urea 15 to 20 kg, irrigation after fertilization. Appropriate application of potash or compound fertilizer in the fruiting period, and then depending on the growth of the plant fertilization.
Drainage and irrigation: The pumpkin should be sprayed with water after sowing in order to facilitate seed germination. Before emergence, it is generally not soaking or dripping with water after planting, and the amount of water poured from the plants after planting to reach the vine before planting should not be excessive. In addition to the timely irrigation after fertilization, under normal circumstances, see the weather and plant growth to carry out watering or irrigation, so that the ground does not dry, the plant growth is not blooming. Rainy days must do a good job of drainage work.
Pruning and pressing vines: Pruning and pressing vines is one of the technical measures for pumpkins to get early maturing and high yield. The pruning of the pumpkin can be done by the top lateral branch method. The method of picking the top is to remove the top bud when the plant grows to 6-8 true leaves, leaving 3-4 vines, leaving 1-2 melons on each vine. Removal of the lateral branch method is to leave only one main vine, remove all the vines and vines, and begin crushed vines at a length of 40-50 cm.
3, pest control:
The main diseases of pumpkin are virus disease and powdery mildew. Viral disease is also called mosaic disease. After the onset of the disease, the leaves are leaf-shaped, shrunken and smaller, and dark green nodules are raised. The fruit is deformed and the plants are obviously atrophied and dwarfed. The most effective measure for preventing and treating viral diseases is to control and eradicate maggots. If diseased plants are found, they should be removed and burned as soon as possible and sterilized with lime to prevent spread. Powdery mildew mostly occurs during the growth and later stages, and can be controlled by triadimefon, carbendazim and colloidal sulfur.
The main insect pests of the locust are the aphids and the yellow-shouldered melon, which can be sprayed with 40% dimethoate 600-800 times or 20% extinction killing 6000-8000 times.
How should I eat maize every day? We need to control the amount of corn, according to the dietary guidelines, the amount of staple food we use in our lives should be controlled at 250 grams to 400 grams, and the ratio of coarse to fine grains is one to three or one to four, which simply means that about 130 grams of corn can be used every day, in addition to the appropriate reduction in the intake of staple food, let's say half a bowl of rice or a steamed bun, so as to avoid excessive calorie intake in our bodies.
It is also important to note that when eating corn, it is advisable to eat the whole cob together to better control our blood sugar. If corn is processed into corn juice or cornmeal food, the nutrients inside are often lost and what remains is basically sugar, which is often higher on the glycemic index and more likely to lead to a rise in blood sugar, for example, the glycemic index of ordinary corn is only 55, but with foods such as cornmeal, the glycemic index often reaches 68, so it is important to eat the right corn.
