1, planting time
Passion fruit is usually planted in early spring or late winter, the specific time is around March every year, and the harvest time is around 65438+February. The life span of passion fruit plants is at most five years, and all of them should be cut down after the fifth year, so as to avoid reducing the second yield and reducing the virus infection of passion fruit.
Step 2 choose seeds
Choose ripe, healthy, non-toxic, sweet and delicious fruits, take out the seeds from the fruits, and try to choose round and full seeds instead of dry ones. Soak the selected seeds in clear water for two days, remove the outermost colloid, and then dry them in the sun. This will improve the survival rate of plants and be beneficial to the later growth of plants.
3. Soil selection
Passion fruit is a subtropical plant with water and drought tolerance and shallow roots. Generally, sandy soil with good permeability, no water accumulation, rich organic matter and loose soil is selected as soil, which is convenient for later drainage, prevents plant roots from waterlogging, and is beneficial for plants to absorb nutrients and grow faster.
4. How to plant passion fruit after the preparation of watering and fertilization is done? First, put the selected seeds into the soil and water them twice a week. When it is found that the soil is dry, it should be replenished in time to keep the soil moist. Fertilize once a week. In the process of fertilization, be careful not to touch the roots of plants, and try to apply liquid nitrogen fertilizer, which is beneficial to protect the roots.
5, pruning branches in the plant growth period, it is not suitable for large-scale pruning, which will lead to the death of the main branches of passion fruit, unable to bear fruit and other problems; The correct way is to cut off the redundant side branches on both sides of the branches slightly. When the main branch grows to one meter long, cut off the top bud of the plant to make it grow two side branches, so that the plant can climb the whole scaffold in a short time and bear more fruits.
