To make persimmon trees bear more fruits, we can start from the following aspects: 1. Optimize the planting environment
1. Ventilation and Light Transmission: Persimmon trees prefer environments with ventilation and light transmission. When planting, open areas should be chosen to avoid overly enclosed environments, which are beneficial for pollination and growth of persimmon trees, thereby increasing fruit hanging rates.
2. Soil management: Persimmon trees are suitable for growing in deep, fertile, and well drained soil. Improving soil structure, such as deep plowing and fertilization, can provide a favorable growth environment for persimmon trees. 2、 Reasonable pruning
1. Pruning time: The best time to prune persimmon trees is usually during the winter dormancy period, after the leaves have fallen. Dry weather can reduce the risk of contracting diseases.
2. Pruning method: Cut off old, diseased, crossed, and overgrown branches to reduce nutritional burden and stimulate new growth. Clearing the bud holes and maintaining the breathability and light ventilation of the branches are beneficial for the fruit to receive light and nutrient supply. Encourage the growth of lateral buds on the main stem and lateral branches to increase the growth points of the fruit. For branches hanging upside down, promptly straighten or shorten them to maintain a good overall tree shape. 3、 Scientific Fertilization
1. Base fertilizer: Apply decomposed organic fertilizer as base fertilizer in autumn or winter to provide long-lasting nutrition for persimmon trees.
2. Topdressing: During the growth process of persimmon trees, topdressing is applied as needed. Especially during the fruit swelling period, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied to promote fruit development and improve quality.
3. Foliar fertilization: In the middle and later stages of persimmon trees, high-density application of organic humic acid active liquid fertilizer or other foliar fertilizers can be sprayed on the leaves to supplement the tree's nutrition and improve fruit hanging rate. 4、 Disease and pest control
1. Disease prevention and control: Common diseases of persimmon trees include anthracnose, brown spot, etc. It is necessary to spray fungicides in a timely manner for prevention and control.
2. Pest control: Common pests on persimmon trees include persimmon stem insects, persimmon scale insects, etc., and a combination of physical, biological, and chemical methods should be used for prevention and control. 5、 Improve pollination rate
1. Artificial pollination: During the flowering period of persimmon trees, artificial pollination can be carried out to improve pollination and fruit setting rates.
2. Free range bees: Keeping bees and other pollinating insects in persimmon orchards can also improve pollination efficiency. 6、 Other management measures
1. Ring peeling and ring cutting: Ring peeling or ring cutting can be carried out on the main trunk or strong branches of persimmon trees to concentrate nutrient supply to the fruit, improve fruit setting rate and fruit quality. But attention should be paid to the operation method and time to avoid causing excessive damage to the tree body.
2. Reasonable load: By implementing measures such as thinning flowers and fruits, the number of fruits can be controlled to ensure a reasonable distribution of nutrients in the tree, which is beneficial for improving fruit quality and fruit hanging rate.
To make persimmon trees bear more fruits, it is necessary to start from multiple aspects such as optimizing the planting environment, reasonable pruning, scientific fertilization, disease and pest control, improving pollination rate, and other management measures. Only by comprehensively applying these measures can good growth conditions be provided for persimmon trees, thereby achieving high and stable yields.
