After planting, cover the soil and water it to promote early seedling. At seedling stage, less water should be poured and more intertillage should be used to raise ground temperature and promote root growth. When the number of leaves increases to 9 to 12, the plant enters the fruiting stage, and nitrogen fertilizer can be applied 1 time in the early fruiting stage, and urea can be applied 7.5- 10 kg per mu. Appropriate application of potassium fertilizer or compound fertilizer during flowering and fruiting period. After the first melon is harvested, 5-7.5 kilograms of urea can be applied per mu to prevent premature aging and yield reduction. If the purpose is to harvest young melons, they can be harvested and put on the market about 10 days after the flowers wither (the eating method is the same as that of zucchini, but shredding is not allowed), and shredding of old melons is subject to not pinching the skin with your fingers. The first melon should be harvested in time, otherwise the growth and development of the next melon will be affected because the main melon is decorated with seedlings. Mature melons can be put on the market after harvest and can be used flexibly according to the market. Evenly sprinkle quicklime powder on the site, and stack 4 to 5 layers of shelves. This kind of melon can be stored in a ventilated, cool and dry place for more than 5 months.
Zucchini has strong resistance to stress, and there are generally no pests and diseases, but it should be prevented. Don't plant on plots where melons have been planted; Seeds should be disinfected. When accelerating germination, the seeds can be soaked in melon continuous cropping agent or 1000 times of formalin 1 hour, then washed with clear water, soaked for 3-4 hours, dried, kept at 28-32℃, and accelerated to germinate 12 hours, and then the seeds can be planted. Cucumber varieties are susceptible to virus diseases and anthracnose at high temperatures in many seasons. The prevention and treatment of viral diseases is mainly to eliminate aphids. When the diseased plants are found, they are pulled out and burned, and the uninfected plants are sprayed with virus A or Phytophthora II, and at the same time, aphid control agents are added, once every 5-7 days and sprayed for 3-4 times.
The nutritional and medicinal value is extremely high: every 500g of fresh melon meat contains 3.2g of protein, no fat, 0.8g of carbohydrate/kloc-3, 0.8g of iron, 0.07mg of calcium/kloc-7, 87mg of phosphorus, 0.8mg of nicotinic acid, 0.08mg of ammonium sulfate, 0.08mg of riboflavin and 20mg of bad blood acid. In particular, it contains fenugreek and malonic acid, which are not found in ordinary melons, and can regulate human metabolism. It has the medicinal effects of losing weight, resisting cancer and preventing cancer, and is known as "green health-care fruits and vegetables".
Convenient to eat: unlike other honeydew melons, you can shred them without steaming. Just peel the ripe melon and remove the pulp, and use it to knead the melon meat to naturally separate the glittering yellow silk, which can be used for cold salad, frying, stuffing, pickles, fried food and so on. Dried shredded melon can be preserved for a long time. When eating, add boiling water to make it fresh and tender, and the crushed melon skin is a high-quality feed for livestock and poultry. This breed is full of treasures. Strong storage resistance, not afraid of freezing, the more delicious the frozen taste, the stronger the frozen silk. After harvest, old melons can be stored indoors or outdoors for 6 months. Strong adaptability, continuous cropping resistance, drought resistance, waterlogging resistance, premature aging resistance, heat resistance and cold resistance, lax requirements on soil and climate, and can be planted in areas where zucchini and pumpkin can be planted.
