Peach trees should choose sandy loam with good drainage and loose soil, and the slope to the south is the best, but continuous cropping should be avoided, that is, peach trees should not be planted on the land where peach trees have been planted. Before planting peaches, we must carry out deep ploughing, improve the soil, change the sloping land into terraces, thicken the soil layer, and then dig planting holes or ditches according to the plant spacing. Generally, it should be based on the characteristics of varieties, topography, soil conditions, plastic methods, cultivation methods, etc. Varieties with strong tree potential can be planted thinly, and varieties with weak tree potential can be planted densely.

2. Soil management

Sowing vegetables in summer and planting green manure in winter in young gardens can not only increase orchard income, but also improve soil fertility, and intercropping is not allowed in adult gardens; Tillage in summer, loosening soil and weeding; In autumn and winter, dig deep and expand holes, apply more organic fertilizer to improve soil physical and chemical properties.

3. Fertilizer and water management

Fertilizer and water management of peach trees in the first year after planting: the first year after planting is the key to the formation of peach trees. In fertilizer and water management, it is necessary to apply fertilizer "lightly and diligently". From March to June, apply fertilizer once every half month, 8 times in total. In the first six times, 4 trees 1 manure water and 2-2 urea were applied to promote the rapid formation of more branches and leaves, and in the last two times, 1 manure water and 2-2 diphosphates were applied. Fertilizer and water management in the second year after planting: peach trees are more barren than oranges and apples, but they should be fertilized at least three times a year after production.

4, pest control

Brown rot of peach: mainly harmful to fruit. At first, brown round spots appeared on the surface of the fruit, and then spread to the whole fruit, and the pulp turned brown and soft rot. Prevention and control methods: To eliminate the source of overwintering bacteria, prevent and control the spread of weevil and Toona sinensis, accelerate germination, spray Bomei 4-5 degree sulfur mixture, and use antibacterial drugs such as zineb and Tobuzin.

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides: It mainly harms fruits, especially when it is wet and rainy. May is the peak of the disease, and the young fruit becomes stiff after being injured. After the fruit expands, the waterlogged lesion expands into a round, reddish-brown and sunken lesion. Prevention and control methods: clear the source of overwintering, and spray 4-5 degrees sulfur mixture and other antibacterial drugs such as thiophanate and carbendazim in early spring.

Peach Leaf Shrinking Disease: The overwintering pathogen invades the peach after germination, spreads the leaves, contracts and distorts them into deformed leaves, and the diseased leaves become fat and gradually turn reddish brown. The control method is basically the same as the above two diseases.

Peach cultivation management is relatively simple, and plastic management in the first year is more critical. In the next few years, we can reduce management and let them grow naturally.
