Figs cultivation method
Today, I will elaborate on the experience of figs cultivation methods for netizens. Regarding how to plant figs and the methods of figs cultivation, the following editor will provide you with detailed answers.
1. Propagation should be reasonable. There are actually three main methods of fig propagation: cutting, layering, and division. The most commonly used method is cutting propagation, which can quickly cause the fig roots to sprout and is also very easy to operate with a high survival rate. In spring, we can choose branches for cutting. When cutting, the temperature must be maintained between 20-25 degrees Celsius. Therefore, we usually find that our cut branches have rooted after 30 days.
2. Transplanting. When the cut branches have rooted and grown leaves, we can transplant the fig branches, with a distance of about two meters for planting. The seasons for transplanting are spring and winter. Spring propagation is best done in early March, and winter is chosen in November-December during the frost to prevent not only effective help for the rapid growth of figs but also to increase their fruit yield.
3. Proper pruning. In the cultivation techniques of figs, pruning is an essential step. After the figs have grown, we must prune them properly to effectively promote the growth of the plant and increase fruit yield. When pruning, it is necessary to keep 3-5 branches and leaves. Do not leave any excess branches or side buds. During the seedling growth period, we must pinch the tips of fig seedlings to promote the growth of branches and leaves and make the fig tree grow larger.
4. Maintenance management. After successful transplantation, we need to regularly loosen the soil and remove weeds around the fig plants. This can cut off the absorption of nutrients by weeds and effectively save nutrients, promoting the branching of fig plants. After pruning, it is important to fertilize the fig trees in a timely manner, preferably with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and add some organic fertilizers if possible, which can promote the healing of pruning wounds. In addition, when the fig tree is bearing fruit, it is essential to water it generously because it requires a lot of water at this time. At other times, it only needs to rely on normal rainfall.
