First of all, pumpkin planting season

Pumpkin planting season is in spring, usually between Qingming and Grain Rain, that is, April and May. At this time, the planting climate has been stable and the humidity and light are suitable. It will be much more convenient to manage after planting, and it will also promote the better germination of pumpkin seeds and the more vigorous growth of seedlings.

Second, the pumpkin planting method

1, seed treatment: pumpkin seeds need to be treated before sowing. First, put them in warm water with a temperature of 55 degrees, and keep stirring for about 15 minutes. Then wait until the water temperature drops to 30 degrees and soak for three hours. Take it out after soaking and wrap it in a wet cloth. Wait until the seeds are 80% white before sowing, so that the seeds germinate faster after sowing.

2. Opening holes for sowing: before sowing, open holes, and then pour bottom water to ensure the soil is moist. Pay attention to the distance between holes when opening holes, about 50 cm. Put three or four seeds in each hole, cover it with two centimeters thick sand, and keep the temperature between 25 and 30 degrees, so that it can germinate in about a week or two.

3, timely planting: when the pumpkin seedlings grow 3 to 5 real leaves, they can be planted, and one plant is planted in each hole. After planting, just water it to make it permeable. If the seedlings are too thin, just pull them out and leave one in each hole.

4. Post-management: Pumpkin seedlings need topdressing once every 65,438+00 days, mainly applying nitrogen fertilizer, and topdressing again when climbing vines to promote better germination of lateral vines. In addition, the framework should be built in time in the later stage.
