Time for field cucumber cultivation: both north and south, not for time production sad
Many grow open cucumbers, which are not productive for half a day, and the problem is probably due to planting times. In the field, cucumbers are grown, unlike the cucumbers, which control temperature. They must follow natural patterns. Time is right. Follow-up management saves half of the effort. Today, in large white, the time of planting the open cucumber is clear, both in the north and the south and directly by the newcomers。
Let's start with the basics: how's the open cucumber? The temperature is the key. The cucumber seed germinates at a minimum temperature level, below 10°c, and is not fertilized at all, and even if cucumbers occur, they are prone to decay. There are also periods of growth during which no frost is allowed and when it happens, cucumber seedlings are frozen to death. So the core is to avoid the frost and find a stable temperature period。
To begin with, the southern region, where temperatures are rising rapidly, the frost periods are short and open cucumber cultivation can take place in two groups. The first were in the early spring, about late february to early march, when temperatures stabilized at more than 10°c in most parts of the south, when the frost period was almost over and seeding was successful. It should be noted, however, that early springs in the south sometimes have a chilling effect, and if it comes to cooling, it is necessary to cover the seedlings and prevent freezing. The second batch was in the autumn, from late august to early september, when the summer heat passed and the temperature fell below 30°c. The seeding did not result in low seedling rates at high temperatures, and the later outcome avoided severe colds and could yield a cucumber. In the southern coastal areas, the fall could be postponed until mid-september to avoid the impact of the typhoon if there were many typhoons。
Looking again at the northern region, where the temperature has recovered slowly, the frost has been long and open cucumbers are concentrated mainly in spring, usually from late april to early may. By this time, the night cream in the north had largely ended and temperatures had stabilized at more than 12°c, meeting the demand for cucumber seeds to germinate and grow. Early plantings, such as early april, are likely to be typhoid, with fresh seedlings exposed to freezing and later long periods. High-altitude areas in the north, such as the western mountains and the western mountains, have lower temperatures and have to delay cultivation by another 10-15 days until around mid-may to plant them to ensure that they are not affected by the frost。
There are also two simple ways to judge whether or not you can plant open cucumbers in the field, which is better than a month. For the first time, the average temperature has stabilized at more than 10°c for five days in a row and can be sowed without strong cooling warning. The second look, the flowers are blooming around, the willows are budding, or the cucumbers are a good time to grow. This is the experience of older generations。
Many people tend to choose the wrong time, and there are three common situations. The first is the early harvest, which is thought to be early, resulting in insufficient temperatures, slow seed growth and even decomposition in the ground, which, even when it comes to seedlings, tends to grow thin, with few later results. The second is too late for the north to grow in late may, the south to sow in the autumn, the south to sow in october, the later temperatures are getting lower, the cucumber growth cycle is insufficient, the fruit is not ripe enough to catch frost, and production is naturally not going up. The third type, which does not look at the local climate, is to replicate the planting time of others, for example, by using the early spring planting time in the south to the north, which is bound to be problematic。
In addition to the right timing, there are two small details to be noted when planting. One is that seeds can be put into hot water for four to six hours before seeding, without a sprouts, with direct bubbles, which can increase the growth rate. The second is to sow one to two centimetres of thick soil, so that it is not too thick, otherwise the seeds cannot be drilled out and the cover is too thin to dry up。
Finally, it is concluded that the time of field cucumber cultivation in the south was delayed 10-15 days in the early spring of february-march, in the autumn of august-september, and in the northern spring of april-may. The core is to avoid the frost, so that the temperature stabilizes at more than 10°c, and the temperature and material are seen when it is uncertain. The newcomers do not have to worry about the exact day, and at this point in time, with minor adjustments based on local weather forecasts, the planting of open cucumbers will hardly go wrong. With the right timing, the basics of water and fertilization can be harvested with a cucumber。
