Two ways to plant loofah to promote high yield

High-efficiency planting of loofah must be reasonably thinned and beardless to reduce unnecessary consumption of nutrients in the soil and plant body, so that it can concentrate on the growth and development of the fruit, thereby increasing the yield per unit area. Experiments have proved that under the same conditions of other cultivation and management, compared with the loofah without thinning and bearding, the rate of sitting gourd per plant is increased, the weight of single gourd is increased, and the yield is also increased.

1. In addition to beard

Tendrils play the role of clinging and delimiting branches in the growth of vine crops. The luffa tendril takes a long time from occurrence to withering and dying, and consumes more nutrients, which is not conducive to more fruit and good fruit. The tendrils are removed and artificial binding is used to replace its clinging function, which is conducive to the progress of photosynthesis of the plant, the production and accumulation of nutrients, and the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, so that the loofah has a good pollination and a high yield.

Hair removal method: In the early stage of the growth of the loofah plant, take the method of removing the shackles and tie the vines on the scaffold; after the branches and vines are evenly distributed and fixed on the scaffold, remove the tendrils at any time along with the vine trimming.

2. Shuxiong

Male flowers are racemes that grow indefinitely. The total number of male inflorescences on each plant is more than the number of female inflorescences, and the pollination ability greatly exceeds the requirement of female flowers. Because the male inflorescence has a longer flowering period, about 30-40 days, which is equivalent to 3 to 4 times the fruiting period of the female flower, a lot of nutrients are consumed during this period. Therefore, removing excess male inflorescences as early as possible can save nutrients and supply the needs of female flowers for fruiting.

Male inflorescence method: Starting from the budding of female flowers, 80% of male inflorescences on each loofah plant are removed, and 20% of the male inflorescences are retained for pollination.
