When can I plant annona?

Generally speaking, it is better to plant annona in Tomb-Sweeping Day when it rains. Bare-rooted seedlings without nutrition cups are only suitable for planting in spring, and seedlings with nutrition cups can be planted all year round except in winter. The planting specification is 3m× 3.5m or 2.5m× 3m, and it is suitable to plant 60 ~ 90 plants per mu. AP annona is 3.5m× 4m or 3m× 4m, and 50 ~ 60 plants should be planted per mu. Fertile gardens should be sparse and barren gardens should be dense. In order to improve the utilization rate of land and obtain early benefits, close planting can be carried out properly, and rows can be rowed after being closed. Before planting, turn the planting hole deep and white. In addition to sand, it is best to add 25 kilograms of river sand per plant. First, 80% river sand is applied to the planting hole, mixed with topsoil, and then planted back to the hole, and then the remaining river sand is applied to the plant base, and then root-fixing water is sprayed. After drenching, it depends on the dryness and wetness of the soil. Annona squamosa seedlings are afraid of wet, but too wet will reduce the survival rate. Seedlings should be cut short in time after planting, and the trunk should be 30 ~ 40 cm. Young tree orchards can interplant short-term crops such as bananas, corn and vegetables in the first and second years. But the density should be reduced by 30%, reduced to 50% in the second year, and no interplanting in the third year. Intercropping young trees in orchard improves the utilization rate and output value of land, and achieves the goal of short and long. Moreover, in summer, due to the shelter of intercropping crops, it can reduce the strong sunlight radiation, keep the soil moisture stable, improve the microclimate of the orchard, and be beneficial to the growth and development of young trees. AP annona has stronger adaptability and cold tolerance to soil than camphor tree. By implementing measures to adjust the production period, the fruit harvesting period can be extended from autumn and winter to March and April of the following year. The fruits harvested in this period have the highest economic benefits. However, during this period, there was little rainfall and low temperature and humidity. Gardens should be selected in the southeast, sunny, sheltered, flat, moist and fertile slopes, or dry gardens, hills, flat land and paddy fields near water sources.
