How long does pumpkin bear fruit and how long does it take for pumpkin to grow on it

Pumpkin is sown in spring in January and March, and in autumn in July and August; Seedling transplanting is used for spring planting, and live broadcast is used for autumn planting.

Depending on the local climate, sufficient basal fertilizer is applied before planting. Pumpkin needs a lot of water and fertilizer to grow, and it is necessary to apply sufficient basal fertilizer when planting to ensure sufficient fertilizer and water supply during the growing season. And spray the new high-fat film, which greatly improves the utilization rate of the active ingredients of fertilizer.

Top at the right time. When the pumpkin vine grows to 2 meters, remove the growth point on the main vine, so that the main vine grows 3-4 branches, and flowers and fruits. And timely spraying to promote Kao 3 to promote flower bud differentiation and improve the flowering and fruit setting rate.

Build a scaffolding. When the branch grows to 2 meters, the vine is put on the shelf, which can improve the light transmission and ventilation conditions, so that the melon sitting rate can be increased by more than 40%. Before the pumpkin blooms, the young fruit stage and the fruit expansion stage, it can make the melon thicken, strengthen the nutrient directional delivery, promote the rapid development of the melon body, and the melon shape is beautiful, juicy and delicious. The growth cycle does not drop flowers, does not fall melons, does not crack melons, and does not deform melons.

Buried stems in the later stage. When pumpkin grows to the later stage, the yield can be increased by 20-40% by using the adventitious roots grown from the vine nodes and burying the stems. The burial time is carried out after 2-3 batches of fruiting, when some waxy leaves appear in the roots.

Generally, bury 4-6 knots closest to the roots, and bury the stem soil with fertile soil and mixed with a small amount of organic fertilizer, moist.

The growing season of pumpkin depends on the climate, and the climate may be cold for a longer time. It is generally about 4 to 6 months, or 105-110 days.

Pumpkin (scientific name: Cucurbita moschata (Duch.) ex lam.

duch.ex poiret) is a species of the genus Cucurbitaceae, an annual creeping herbaceous plant with often node-borne roots, thick petioles, broadly ovate or oval leaves, slightly soft, leaf veins raised, tendrils slightly thicker, monoecious, fruit peduncles stout, ridged and grooved, varying from variety to variety, often with several longitudinal grooves or none on the outside, most seeds, oblong or oblong.

Pumpkins generally bloom from May to July, and most of them bloom male flowers first, followed by female flowers. If the pumpkin is too high in nutrients, it will delay flowering. After the pumpkin fruit is fruited, start fertilizing, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, try to avoid the use of nitrogen fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer will only promote the growth of branches and leaves, break the balance of vegetative reproduction and growth, is not conducive to the growth of fruits, thereby reducing the yield.

Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can increase the fruit setting rate while making the pumpkin fruit fully grow.

Pumpkin growth cycle growth process.

Seed germination: The first step in pumpkin seed germination is from the cotyledons, and after the first leaf has all germinated, the seed germination stage begins.

Seedling stage: From the first true leaf of the pumpkin to the growth of 5 or 7 true leaves, it is the seedling stage after being able to wrap the branches and leaves, and the seedlings of the pumpkin are already erect.

Vine pumping: After the pumpkin has grown 5-7 true leaves, it begins to wrap around the branches until the first female stamen opens, entering the vine extraction stage, which usually takes 10-15 days. During this period, roots, stems, and leaves grow rapidly, and the branches gradually elongate.

Blossoming and fruiting: Let the brother bloom from the first female flower until it matures, let the smooth rhizome and branches and leaves together, and there is a flower meeting, which will take 50-70 days to mature.

Growth cycle. Pumpkin growth time is about 4-6 months old, according to the change of climate, after planting to pay attention to windproof, if the pumpkin seedlings are blown by the wind roots, the possibility of survival is less.

Pumpkin flowering and fruiting time.

The pumpkin grows first and then blooms, and after successful pollination, it continues to swell and grow until it matures, and when it fails, it will automatically drop. It generally blooms from May to July, and most of them bloom male flowers first, followed by female flowers. If the pumpkin is too high in nutrients, it will delay flowering.

After the pumpkin flowering period is over, if the pollination is successful, the flowering period will wither soon, and the growth and development of the small pumpkin can be seen after the flowering period is over, and the result will take 4-5 days.

Pumpkin planting at the fruit stage and at the flowering stage.

1. Nutrients: Pumpkin needs enough fertilizer to promote its growth at the beginning of the flowering period, and before the flowering period, if the pumpkin lacks nutrients and is in a state of insufficient nutrition, it cannot bloom.

2. Light: Pumpkins need sufficient light during growth and before flowering, and light can promote flowering.

3. Moisture: Lack of water in pumpkin during the maintenance period, poor growth in the flowering period, and failure to pollinate in the later stage, affecting fruit harvest.

4. Diseases and insects: After pumpkin is infected by pests and diseases, the flower buds will be infected by bacteria or eaten by pests, which will affect the opening of flowers in the later stage.

Fertilization management. After the pumpkin fruit is fruited, start fertilizing, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, try to avoid the use of nitrogen fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer will only promote the growth of branches and leaves, break the balance of vegetative reproduction and growth, is not conducive to the growth of fruits, thereby reducing the yield. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can increase the fruit setting rate while making the pumpkin fruit fully grow.

The temperature is right. The flowering period and melon setting temperature of pumpkin should not be lower than 15, and the temperature higher than 35 flowers could not develop normally, 25 27 is the best temperature for fruit development, and low temperature is conducive to female flower differentiation.

How to grow pumpkins:

1. Select excellent varieties with high yield, disease resistance and stress resistance;

2. Prepare the land and apply enough fertilizer;

3. Sow seeds in a timely manner to ensure that the seedlings are complete, strong and prosperous, and lay a good foundation for high yield in the later stage;

4. Carry out artificial assisted pollination during the flowering period to ensure that the melon sits on;

5. Weather changes during the fruit expansion period, reasonable, timely and appropriate watering; Pay close attention to the occurrence and development of pests and diseases, and make the correct, timely and reasonable response to the town;

6. Timely harvesting, storage, **;

Pumpkins take about 5 months to ripen after planting.
