Is it easier to grow big cherries or prunes?

Big cherry and prune are both very popular fruits in today's market, which are deeply loved by many people, and the planting area is getting bigger and bigger. So is it easier to grow big cherries or prunes? Now share my views on this issue.

First of all, growing big cherries is more complicated than growing plums. Cherry is delicious and difficult to grow. Big cherry is big, colorful, nutritious and expensive. However, big cherry has higher requirements on climate factors, planting conditions, artificial management and other factors. If the management is not good, it is easy to have problems such as low fruit setting rate, deformed fruit and cracked fruit.

Prune, also known as Chilean plum, is a kind of plum with sweet fragrance and rich nutrition. It is a promising fruit tree. Prunes are more extensive and adaptable than cherries, especially for drought resistance and cold resistance, and can withstand the low temperature below minus 20℃ or around 40? A high temperature of 30 degrees Celsius.

Second, matters needing attention in planting big cherry and prune 1. Cherry: There are three problems to pay attention to in the process of cherry planting. First, we should always adjust the tree potential; The second is to prevent spring frost; The third is to reduce the occurrence of fruit cracking.

Tree potential regulation: The regulation of big cherry tree potential is a difficult technical link to master. Too strong a tree is difficult to bear fruit, resulting in only leaves that do not bloom or bloom but do not bear fruit. Too much control will weaken the tree. Therefore, in production practice, we should control it moderately. It is very easy for big cherry to grow vigorously after picking fruit, so it is very important to adjust the tree vigor in time after picking fruit. Such as using plant growth inhibitors, girdling, girdling, root cutting and other methods, and at the same time pay attention to the timing of fertilization and fertilizer selection. For example, the fertilization of big cherry in summer should be mainly decomposed organic fertilizer, moderate potassium fertilizer and a small amount of phosphorus fertilizer.

Anti-freezing in spring: There are two kinds of frost damage to big cherry, one is that the early flower buds are damaged or the tree body dies; Second, the sudden cooling or frost in the young fruit period makes the flowers or young fruits suffer. The prevention and control methods are: strengthening the management of fertilizer and water, increasing the application of organic fertilizer, especially applying basic fertilizer in autumn to increase the nutrient reserve of trees, preventing the trees from weakening, pouring frozen water before freezing, and spraying antifreeze peptide star or sodium nitrophenolate 500-600 times before and after flowering.

Reducing fruit cracking: Measures to reduce fruit cracking of big cherry, such as selecting good varieties, increasing soil permeability, preventing excessive soil moisture, covering trees with plastic film, controlling water supply during fruit ripening, and paying attention to calcium supplementation to increase peel toughness, can effectively reduce fruit cracking.

2. Mume: Mume is a variety of plum, which has strong adaptability, strong drought and cold resistance, and is rarely harmed by pests and diseases. It can be planted in many places in the north. Plum blossom planting should pay attention to two aspects:

Pruning trees: Pruning management should be done in time after pruning. After the first year, it is necessary to pinch the tip and pull the branches in time, and try to develop into a spindle shape to lay a good foundation for future management. When the trunk is about 1.3 meters from the ground, you can leave 3 ~ 4 short branches, leave them step by step, and trim the rest.

Orchard management: plum blossom management is very extensive. When the temperature is stable at about 20℃ in spring, the whole garden is disinfected with sulfur mixture, the first leaf is watered when it comes out, and pure boron is added when it blooms to improve the fruit setting rate; Apply pesticides and fungicides to the size of soybeans, and water them for the second time according to the temperature and soil conditions; After picking, apply organic fertilizer as base fertilizer once, water frozen water once and mix lime once before winter, and then paint the trunk with lime.

In a word, planting big cherry is more complicated than pruning, because big cherry has high requirements on climate factors, planting conditions, artificial management and other factors. If the management is not good, it is easy to have problems such as low fruit setting rate, deformed fruit and cracked fruit. Compared with cherry, plum blossom has extensive management, strong adaptability, strong drought and cold resistance, and is rarely disturbed by pests and diseases, so it can be planted in many places in the north.
