Main producing areas of mangosteen
The editor answers for the netizens where the main producing areas of mangosteen are and introduces the planting methods and climatic conditions of green plants and flowers. Next, the editor will introduce to the netizens.
Mangosteen grows on trees, originally from Maluku. It has been trial planted in Fujian, Guangdong and other places. Its lifespan can reach 70 years, but it grows slowly. Mastering reasonable cultivation techniques can improve yield to a certain extent. The specific methods are as follows:
Garden soil: It can be planted on half hills, gentle slopes, or flat land. The soil should be fertile and deep.
Planting: Trim the seedlings properly before planting, and backfill the fertile soil and press it down after planting.
Temperature: It is best to keep it between 25~35℃, and try not to let it drop below 20℃.
I. Where does mangosteen grow
Mangosteen grows on trees, with tree heights usually between 12-20m. The mangosteen tree has many branches and is dense, with purple-red fruits and smooth skin. The original habitat of mangosteen is Maluku, and it is widely planted in tropical regions of Asia and Africa. It has been introduced or trial planted in China, such as in Fujian, Taiwan, Yunnan, Guangdong and other places. It has a long lifespan, generally about 70 years, but it grows very slowly. It takes 7-8 years of care from planting to fruiting, with the fruiting period from October to December, and the highest yield in November to December.
II. Cultivation techniques of mangosteen
Garden site: When planting mangosteen, it is generally chosen to plant on half hills, gentle slopes, or flat lands with a slope less than 20°. It is best to plant in a centralized and contiguous manner in the garden site, which is more convenient for management. Moreover, the soil layer should be deep and fertile, with a soil pH value between 5-6, and most importantly, the drainage should be convenient.
Planting: Seedlings or grafted seedlings can be used for planting. Before planting, the diseased and weak branches on the seedlings should be cut, and the dense leaves should also be thinned properly to avoid increased evaporation of water. When planting, first fill the planting hole with mixed fertile soil, plant the treated seedlings, backfill the fertile soil and press it down, and water once for root establishment.
Temperature: Mangosteen is a tropical rainforest fruit tree. It grows vigorously in an environment of 25~35℃, with humidity around 80%. If the temperature is between 20~25℃, it can also meet its normal requirements. If the temperature drops below 20℃, the growth of mangosteen will be hindered, and if it drops below 5℃, the mangosteen tree will die. Conversely, the temperature should not be too high, and the maintenance temperature should preferably be below 40℃.
The above is the complete introduction to where mangosteen is mainly produced, as well as the planting methods and climatic conditions, for everyone to learn and understand!
