Do orange trees like sunshine or cool places? What kind of soil does the orange tree like?

Orange trees like sunshine and are suitable for fertile, loose, slightly acidic and well-drained sandy soil.

Growth humidity requirements: I like a warm environment with a certain humidity. The soil in the basin should be kept moist, but there should be no water in the basin. When the weather is hot from summer to early autumn, in addition to watering the basin, we should also spray water on the ground around the basin to keep it moist.

Optimum growth temperature: citrus reticulata likes warmth, is more resistant to shade, and is more sensitive to temperature than light. The optimum growth temperature is centered at 26℃, and 23-34℃ is the most suitable.

Matters needing attention in citrus tree cultivation:

1, fertilization: oranges like to fertilize, so they should apply more thin fertilizer at ordinary times. Apply decomposed liquid fertilizer once before the plants germinate, and then apply liquid fertilizer mainly containing nitrogen every 7 ~ 10 days to promote more branches and leaves and more spring shoots.

Fertilize in time after each coring to promote the early maturity of branches. During the growth of oranges, you can sprinkle some cake fertilizer on the basin surface, so that some fertilizer will penetrate into the soil every time you water it, thus enhancing fertility. After autumn, fertilization will be reduced, plant nutrition will be avoided, autumn shoots will be promoted, and fruits will compete for nutrients, leading to fruit drop.

2. Key points of watering: Different fruit trees have different requirements on the pH value of water, generally 6.5 ~ 7 is appropriate, and ferrous sulfate can be used for correction. The temperature difference between water temperature and soil should not exceed 5℃. Watering in the growing season should be carried out before 10 in the morning or after 4 pm. Water it every day on sunny days in summer 1 time. If the soil is dry, water 1 time on the same day. Water 1 time every day in spring and autumn, and water 1 time every 2 ~ 5 days in early spring and late autumn; Control watering in winter.
