Choose the right variety, select and prepare, light and temperature, watering and fertilization, pruning and pest control, harvest and storage As the pace of life accelerates, more and more people are pursuing a green and healthy lifestyle, raising a pot of mango trees at home, not only can it beautify the home environment, but also enjoy tropical fruits. Let me introduce you in detail the breeding skills of potted mangoes, so that you can easily grow delicious mangoes at home. It is crucial to choose the right variety to choose the mango varieties suitable for potted plants. Mango varieties suitable for potted plants include Tainong, Jinhuang, Guixiang, etc. These varieties have short growth cycles, good fruit taste, and are suitable for family maintenance. Soil selection and preparation of potted mangoes The soil requires loose, breathable, and good drainage. You can choose to mix legus soil, garden soil, sand, etc. in proportion. The specific ratio is: 3 parts legus soil, 4 parts garden soil, and 3 parts sand., you can also add appropriate amounts of some organic fertilizers, such as chicken manure, cow dung, etc., to provide the nutrients needed for mango growth. Light and temperature Mango trees like light and should be placed in places with sufficient sunshine. When the light is strong in summer, shade can be appropriately shaded to avoid sunburn on the leaves. The suitable growth temperature of mango trees is 20-30℃. When the temperature in winter is lower than 10℃, you should pay attention to keep warm. Watering and fertilization 1. Watering: Mango trees like a humid environment, but avoid standing water. Watering should keep the soil moist to avoid drought. During the high temperature season in summer, you can water it once a day; during the low temperature season in winter, you can water it every 2-3 days.
2. Fertilization: Mango trees grow vigorously and require a large amount of fertilizer. Generally, fertilization is carried out 3-4 times a year, in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Fertilization is mainly nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers, and the application amount per plant is 50-100 grams. pruning and pest control 1. pruning: During the growth of mango trees, diseased branches, crossed branches, inward branches, etc. should be pruned in time to maintain the appearance of the tree shape and improve photosynthesis efficiency.
2. Pest and insect pest control: Common pests and diseases on mango trees include anthrax, powdery mildew, aphids, etc. The control methods are as follows: (1) Anthrax: You can spray it with 800 times of 70% thiophanate-methyl wettable powder, every 7-10 days and spray it continuously 2-3 times.
(2) Powdery mildew: You can spray 25% triadimefon EC with a solution of 1500 times, once every 7-10 days, and spray 2-3 times continuously.
(3) Aphids: You can spray 40% dimethoate EC with 1000 times solution, once every 7-10 days, and spray 2-3 times continuously. Harvesting and storing potted mangoes generally begin to bear fruit 1-2 years after planting. After the fruits are ripe, they can be picked and eaten. Unripe mangoes should not be eaten to avoid causing diarrhea. When storing mangoes, they should be placed in a cool and ventilated place to avoid direct sunlight.
Through the above introduction, I believe that everyone has a deeper understanding of the breeding skills of potted mangoes. Raising a pot of mango trees at home can not only beautify the home environment, but also enjoy delicious fruits. As long as you master the breeding skills well, I believe you will be able to raise healthy and high-yield potted mangoes.
