Fruit corn has been very popular in recent years, and cultivation is increasing。
Compared to ordinary maize, fruit and maize tastes sweet, thin, fine and even raw。
Most importantly, fruit maize is growing efficiently and, as the market for fruits and maize has become more profitable, many growers have chosen to grow fruit and maize。
Today, it is with you to take an inventory of the important techniques used to grow fruit corn。
With these in hand, high-quality fruit corn can be easily grown。
Tip 1 soil selection
The demand for fruit corn is high on the soil, so it is important to select the soil that is estranged and fertile and deep in the soil, and to ensure that the soil is not contaminated。
Fruit corn is also more suitable for cultivation in the north, where the soil and climate are very suitable for its growth。
At the same time, the technology to grow maize in the north is relatively sophisticated, with a range of mechanized equipment ranging from sowing to harvesting。
Some may suspect that fruit corn is a genetically modified species, but it is not. Fruit corn is a mixed, high-quality variety, resulting in high sugar and low starch levels。
Tip 2 varieties selection
Fruit corn is classified in terms of sugar content as ordinary fruit corn, super-sweet fruit corn, and enhanced sweet fruit corn。
Super-sweet fruit corn is the sweetest of sweet corn and tastes much better than normal sweet corn, which is many times more sweet than ordinary sweet corn。
It is the best of fresh sweet corn, but it is also relatively expensive。
All kinds of super-sweet fruit and corn are delicious and delicious。
Tip 3 rational seeding
Fruit corn can be staggered with ordinary corn at planting times, and the timing choices are very good at the end of march to the beginning of may each year, or at the end of june to the beginning of august。
Avoiding normal maize planting times would also facilitate the sale of a good price。
If fruit corn is grown together with ordinary corn or corn corn, at least 300 metres apart。
Because the sweetness of fruit corn is implicit genetic control and is grown together with other maize, it is prone to pollen, which affects the quality of fruit corn and reduces its sweet taste。
Before seeding, fruit corn is subject to the application of bottom fattening and, depending on soil conditions, the use of decomposition organic fertilizers per acre is generally about 3,000 kg。
At the same time, 50 kg of calcium per phosphate is used in conjunction. The amount of seeding is determined by a variety of factors, including local soil conditions, varieties, etc。
Generally, between 3,500 and 4,000 seedlings per acre。
Tip 4 field management
During the pre-planting period, fruit maize should be sensitive to the timely detection of the presence of seedlings, dead seedlings and, if relevant, their replantation。
As our already grown friends know, weeds will inevitably grow in corn fields, which will require frequent weeding and pine soil to ensure that maize is fully absorbed and its seedlings flourish。
When the seedlings grow too crowded, care about the seedlings。
The sapling time takes place when the corn can grow to three leaves, with two seedlings per den. When a seedling is made in the fifth leaf of corn, a seedling is kept in each den。
In addition, fruit corn pollination is done by itself, without manual intervention, and when corn is full of drums, it can be picked when it gets darker。
With these little tricks, there's no need to worry about fruit and corn production
