How to manage cantaloupe vine growth period

1. Traction and tie:

When the plant grows to 6 or 7 knots or more, you can start pulling and tying the vines, but the traction rope should be set up in time before the vines are stretched to facilitate the plants to wrap around the vines.

2. Pruning vines:

When the plant enters the vine-stretching period, the vines grow rapidly, and should be pruned in time to remove all the side vines extending below 12 nodes to reduce nutrient consumption. If necessary, use the method of spreading the stems to improve the disease prevention effect.

3. Spray Borax:

When the plant grows to about 1 meter, spray with 0.1%~0.2% borax once to promote fruit setting

4. Shed temperature control:

In autumn, the temperature is high, and the greenhouse should be ventilated and cooled. There is no weather such as heavy rain or typhoon, and both sides of the skirt can be rolled up.

5. Clean shed appearance:

Weeds inside and outside the greenhouse should be cleaned up in time to reduce breeding grounds for pests and diseases.

6. Smooth ditch system:

Keep the outer ditches and sheds clean to ensure smooth drainage of the ditches during heavy rains. Excessive groundwater levels will cause difficulty in fruit setting and premature aging in later stages.
