Sugar oranges take three years to bear fruit. The fruit is blue before ripening, orange or orange after ripening, with smooth surface, yellow flesh and abundant juice. In the process of cultivating sugar oranges, it is necessary to water them once a week and fertilize them once a month to maintain the growth of plants and cut off the long branches of sugar oranges to reduce nutrient consumption.
How long will the sugar orange bear fruit? 1, bearing time.
Sugar oranges can only bear fruit after three years of planting, and the first yield is low, and it will enter the full fruit period after one year. The fruit of Tangju grows and matures every year 10. At this time, the fruit is orange-red, with smooth surface, yellow flesh, rich juice and sweet and sour taste.
Step 2 provide moisture
Sugar oranges are suitable for growing in humid environment, and the number of watering depends on the season. When the temperature is suitable in spring and autumn, you can water it once a month. The temperature is high in summer, so it is necessary to spray water mist once every three days. When the temperature drops in winter, water supply should be stopped.
3, plastic pruning
In order to improve the fruit setting rate of sugar orange, it is necessary to prune and shorten its dense growth and long branches to increase the light receiving area of the plant. Moreover, in the first year when the sugar orange bears fruit, it is necessary to prune the buds that are too lush to avoid insufficient nutrition and affect the fruit quality.
Step 4 supplement nutrition
Sugar orange has a great demand for nutrients, and nitrogen fertilizer should be provided to maintain its growth during the growing period. However, using only one kind of fertilizer will lead to plants growing in vain and soil hardening. Therefore, when applying fertilizer, it is best to use it together with decomposed farm manure, phosphorus, potassium fertilizer and urea, so that sugar oranges can absorb balanced nutrients.
