1, variety selection
Cherry belongs to cross-pollinated fruit trees, so attention should be paid to variety collocation in potted plants. The best way is to graft 2 ~ 3 varieties in each pot. The cherry in the basin should be a variety with large fruit, bright color and strong continuous fruit-bearing ability.
2. Cherry on the basin
(1) container selection: the container should match the size of the seedlings. For 1 ~ 2-year-old seedlings, containers with a diameter of 25 ~ 30cm should be selected. The container has good air permeability and no toxic effect on root system.
(2) Preparation of nutrient soil: Cherry root system has strong respiration and high oxygen consumption. The soil needs high permeability. The ratio of nutrient soil is peat soil: manure: sand =5∶3∶2.
(3) Selection of seedlings: Selection criteria of seedlings: healthy growth of seedlings, full branches and buds, developed roots and no diseases and insect pests. Small perennial trees require short stems, reasonable branch distribution and large thinning degree between branches.
(4) Pot planting: Pot planting time is generally in early spring. Before potted, prune damaged roots and branches to expose new stubble; Cut off the parts with pests and diseases. Secondly, check the drain hole of the container to keep the container drained smoothly.
3. Fertilizer and water management: The main physiological activities such as cherry growth, flowering and fruiting depend on daily fertilizer and water management. The principle of fertilization and watering of cherries is to apply less, see dry and wet, and water thoroughly without leakage.
4. Flower and fruit management: thinning flowers and fruits is the focus of flower and fruit management. Bud thinning is stronger than flower thinning, and flower thinning is stronger than fruit thinning. There are a large number of flower buds in the tree, and some flower buds are thinned out in bud stage.
5, plastic pruning: pruning is mainly based on summer scissors, supplemented by winter scissors. Winter pruning: winter pruning is mainly to adjust the tree type and balance the tree potential. Mainly remove competitive branches, upper branches, strong branches and slender branches.
Cherry is a fruit tree that likes light, temperature, humidity and fat. It is suitable to grow under the climatic conditions of annual average temperature 10 ~ 12℃, annual precipitation of 600 ~ 700 mm, and annual sunshine hours of more than 2,600 ~ 2,800 hours ... The time when the daily average temperature is higher than 10℃ is150 ~ 200 d. If there is freezing damage in the local area, cherry orchard can choose the northwest slope where the temperature rises slowly and the air circulates in spring. Considering that the cherry root system is shallow and easy to be blown down by the wind, the garden should be in an area free from wind damage, and the soil is sandy loam with loose soil and deep soil layer.
