What are the growth habits of persimmon trees? How to grow persimmons?

Persimmon trees are beautiful and generous, with large leaves, and can also be used for shading. After autumn, the leaves turn red, which greatly increases the ornamental value and is widely used in the landscaping of cities, towns and courtyards. Persimmon trees have strong adaptability to the environment, high yield and high economic benefits. They are warmly welcomed by forest farmers and growers and are widely planted all over China. Persimmon trees can grow on hillside, flat land, hilly terrain, ridge, floodplain, fertile or hemorrhoid-thin land, but the soil with rich soil layer, good air permeability and weak water retention is the best. In areas where the soil layer is too thin and dried prematurely, the roots can't bend and stretch, and persimmon trees are easy to drop flowers and fruits, which inhibits the growth of some parts of the ground and is easy to produce "small trees". It is also more salt-tolerant.

It is not easy to raise persimmon trees, but it is necessary to understand its ecological habits: strong positive greening plants, low temperature tolerance. Like humidity, but also drought-tolerant, can grow in dry and humid soil environment. Avoid storing water. Deep roots, thick rhizomes, strong water and fertilizer absorption ability, poor tolerance, strong adaptability, do not like sand. Choosing land to build persimmon orchard: it is most suitable to choose a shady place with thick soil layer, fertile and loose soil and low groundwater level. Digging a pit and applying base fertilizer: according to the terrain, it is necessary to change it into a horizontal terrace, and build a front ridge and a back ditch, an anti-skew counter surface or a "fish scale pit" mountain garden. According to the row spacing of 6× 5.5m, 1 mu, twenty or fifty plants (sparsely planted).

The width and depth of the transplant hole should be 1 m, 0.8 m and 0.6 m respectively. First, through the weathered layer, backfill weeds and subsoil to 80% of the planting hole. At the same time, a very large amount of organic fertilizer is backfilled as the base fertilizer, and the acupoint surface is 20cm. When planting, topdressing 1- 1.5 kg of calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer per hole to improve the transplanting quality and growth. The most suitable stage for persimmon planting is after dead leaves in autumn and before germination in spring, that is, before the middle and late February, which generally does not exceed the vernal equinox season. Adult trees with tall trunks or cross branches for shade should be properly pruned after dead leaves in winter, and short branch pruning should be selected as the leading mode to cut off dense branches, cross branches, blind branches and diseased branches to promote effective branches and cut them into effective plant types. Winter pruning should completely eliminate stem blight, diseased pedicels, dead branches and leaves, and eliminate the source of winter pests. Persimmon trees that are seriously damaged by budding insects should be sprayed with 95% automobile oil solvent (acaricide) 150 times or Pomei 5% omethoate to prevent their leaves from dying in winter and sprouting in spring.

Persimmon tree is a kind of sunny greening plant, which is planted in grand canyons and gullies. Although the tree is tall and big, its trunk does not expand much, its branches are thin, its buds are not easy to produce, and its commodity rate is low. Persimmon trees planted in the sunny place along the wind have strong plant shape, perfect and balanced trunk, good fruit quality and high yield. The same tree has many branches and fruits in the morning and bright colors, but few branches and fruits in the inner room and light colors. Especially in the flowering period, when the light is not enough, the flowers and fruits will fall more seriously. The exocarp is thick and thick, with less sugar and more water, and it will be colored. It will be perfect in the later stage, but it will be more resistant to storage. Sufficient sunlight, vigorous growth and development of branches, good branching ability, easy accumulation of organic chemical nutrients, easy flowering, more flowers, high fruit setting rate, thin skin and tender meat, good coloring, sweet taste, less water and good quality. Sunlight can also interfere with the growth of trees.
