Passion fruit, also known as egg fruit, is native to the Antilles Islands in America. It is a tropical and subtropical fruit belonging to the Passifloraceae family Passiflora genus. Due to its rich content of vitamins and other nutrients, along with its refreshing aroma and sweet and sour taste, it is often used as food and juice. Next, let's introduce the fertilization methods for passion fruit.
1. Base Fertilizer
Organic fertilizer or microbial fertilizer is generally used as base fertilizer, then mixed with calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer or dolomite powder. The amount of fertilizer should be determined based on the fertility of the soil. Increase the amount of fertilizer for poor soil, and reduce it for fertile soil. Fertilization can be done by stirring, turning, or rotary tillage into the soil.
2. Seedling Fertilizer
After transplanting seedlings, watering can start, and fertilization can begin after a month. At this time, you can use a 300x dilution of the Seaweed Bio Stimulant Root Application type to promote root growth; when new leaves sprout, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied, with a frequency of 2-3 times per month.
3. Flower Promotion Fertilizer
Before flowering, reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizer and increase the content of phosphorus fertilizer to ensure the quality and quantity of the plant's flowers.
4. Fruit Development Fertilizer
During the fruit-setting stage, continue to apply phosphorus fertilizer, with a frequency of 1-2 times per month, and increase the content of calcium and magnesium in the fertilizer. Be careful not to open trenches during fertilization to avoid damaging the plant's roots. It's best to use a淋施 (sprinkling) method.
5. Foliar Fertilization
To supplement nutrition, "root external fertilization" can also be used, which is foliar fertilization, including the early stage of flower bud differentiation, bud stage, after flowering, fruit expansion stage, and coloring stage. In the early stage of flower bud differentiation, you can spray 15% Paclobutrazol 500x dilution + Phosphate Potash Source 800x dilution on the leaves; in the bud stage, use Boron Source 1000x dilution + Cytokinin 1000-1500x dilution + Seaweed Bio Stimulant Foliar Application type 800x dilution; after flowering, use Cytokinin 1000-1500x dilution + Seaweed Bio Stimulant Foliar Application type 800x dilution; during fruit expansion, use Phosphate Potash Source 800x dilution + Coverworld 1000x dilution; during the coloring stage, use Red Source 800x dilution.
