Durian is the "king fruit" in the minds of many people, and the variety selection and planting care of durian seedlings are crucial, which determines the growth status and fruit yield of durian trees. This article will explore how to select the best variety of durian seedlings and provide some tips for planting and care.
Variety selection When selecting durian seedlings, the adaptability and yield of the variety should be considered. For example, Golden Pillow and Black King Kong are common varieties that are not only highly adaptable, but also have high yields. Artificial hybrid varieties are also becoming increasingly popular because they can produce larger and tastier fruits.
When purchasing durian seedlings through purchasing channels, you should choose a regular agricultural product market or a professional plant nursery. Ensure the quality and health of seedlings to avoid bringing pests and diseases into your garden.
Seedling root system The root system of durian seedlings is very important because it directly affects tree growth. Choose a healthy, non-damaged root system, and pay attention to the size and shape of the root system. If the root system is too small or too large, it will affect the growth of durian trees.
Seedling height and tree shape When purchasing durian seedlings, seedlings with a height of about 30 cm should be selected. When selecting tree types, seedlings with upright and few branches should be selected, which will help improve the growth ability of fruit trees.
Survival rate of seedlings The survival rate of durian seedlings is one of the keys. Should choose root system intact, no pests, not damaged seedlings. Before planting, seedlings should be disinfected and given adequate water and nutrients.
Planting timing Durian seedlings should be planted in spring or autumn, when the temperature is suitable, which is conducive to the growth and development of seedlings. Adequate preparations should be made before planting, such as digging potholes, fertilizing and irrigating.
Planting method When planting durian seedlings, attention should be paid to the placement and depth of the root system. Place the roots of the seedlings into the potholes, fill the soil, keep the seedlings upright, then pat the soil tightly and water it.
Conservation and management During the growth process of durian trees, attention should be paid to conservation and management. Including pruning branches, fertilization, pest control, etc. In addition, the time and amount of irrigation and fertilization should be adjusted based on climatic conditions and soil conditions.
Pest and insect pest control Durian trees are vulnerable to some pests and diseases, such as anthrax, aphids and whiteflies. In order to avoid these problems, the health status of durian trees should be inspected frequently and necessary prevention and control measures should be taken.
Using genetic technology With the continuous development of genetic technology, more and more durian farmers have begun to use genetic technology to improve the yield and quality of durian trees. For example, through genetic transformation technology, the weight and nutritional value of durian fruits can be increased.
Common Problems Durian trees will encounter some common problems during their growth, such as trunk cracks, falling leaves and falling fruits. In order to avoid these problems, attention should be paid to tree conservation and management and pest control.
Harvest season The harvest season for durian is usually in summer, and the fruits should be picked in time after they mature. During the picking process, care should be taken not to damage the fruits and trees.
Storage and processing After picking durian fruits should be stored and processed in a timely manner. It can be made into products such as dried durian or durian crisp, or it can be eaten directly.
Economic Value Durian is a high-value cash crop with high sales in domestic and foreign markets. Selecting the best varieties of durian seedlings and reasonable planting care are very important to improve economic benefits.
By selecting the best varieties of durian seedlings, reasonable planting care and scientific maintenance management, we can ensure the smooth growth of durian trees and improve fruit yield and quality. In the future, with the continuous development of genetic technology and agricultural technology, we believe that the economic value of durian will become more prominent.
