Techniques for growing chayote for many tops and wrong results

Susu is a kind of vegetable grown in our country. Sui can be grown to get tops and fruits, so it is very popular among people. If you have the right techniques to plant chayote, you will have high productivity.

Cold-loving rubber, monoclinic flowers, fruiting pollen by bees, if not grown in time, improper care of fruit yield will not be high. Here are some methods and techniques for planting chayote properly to help farmers grow for the highest yield.

Having the right techniques to plant chayote will yield high productivity

The planting season of chayote

It is best to grow chayote in the lunar September to harvest fruits from December to early March next year. If planted too early (August) or planted too late (October and November), the weather is unfavorable for sui and fruiting, fruit yield will not be high.

Soil preparation, lining and planting

The soil base suitable for gourds is also suitable for chayote, as soil for melon cultivation. Planting chayote with seedless seed. The fruit is big and strong, and the spines are strong and healthy.

Choose big, medium, healthy big buds, and have reaped new roots as good fruits

Dig a hole 80-100cm wide, 40-50cm deep, pour a lot of mulch, fertilizer into the hole and leave it down for about a week. The holes are dug straight, 2.5-3.0m apart. Each hole fertilizes 10-15 kg of manure and 1 kg of superphosphate, 1 kg of potassium sulfate (excluding extra humus).

Plant each hole 3-4 fruits, 30-40cm apart, then fill the soil covered with fruits, only to open the sprouts. One hectare must grow from 250-360kg of seed to ensure a density of 1,000-1,500 trees / ha.

Take care of chayote

The work of taking care of su is very simple, including the following: Shading the seed for planting at the time of planting . Check after growing to avoid losing about. When the trees have grown, they must make a truss in the form of melon truss, 1.8-2m high. When the chayote grows 1-1.5m long, plug the tree into the rig.

Arranging, leveling evenly, absolutely do not hit the tops of su su's tops as for gourds. When leaning on a trellis, it is also time to remove the soil around the rubber tree root.

Apply the fertilizer to the chayote in two stages : When the tree has just been on the trellis, use water to spread the water around the root so that the roots can spread widely, can spread a stream of mud and sewage mud on the bed surface. When harvested, push with water or potassium fertilizer, make the fruit bright and firm, prevent fruit drop.

Pest control on chayote

When the rubber is 0.5m high, it often gets aphid to make the curling tops need to be detected early, unless the su is up, if not, su su will falter and branch soon after the fruit will not be much. Sting bees damage the fruit to reduce productivity by up to 60%, so it is necessary to use many methods to kill bee stings to protect the fruit and truss, so it is low, it may be necessary to use insect repellent to spray.

Care and prevention of pests and diseases are important in techniques of planting chayote trees

Harvesting chayote

Suffering from the harvest just right away, harvested once every 5-7 days. Autumn when the fruit has just stretched, looks smooth and moderate. The average yield is 30-50 tons / ha (1-1.7 tons / sao).

To breed su chay

At present, our country has two areas to breed chayote: Plain of rubber growing in the Winter - Spring season, taking seeds in May, bringing in cuttings in the soil and manure mix (7 soil 1 item) in baskets or wooden crates placed in a cool place, each crate or wooden box only 5-6 fruits. Just leave it like that until August and September, then plant it.

It is also possible to remove the rubble, root the stem, cut the wire to leave the original wire at 2m and circle it around the root, fill up the soil, and then let the trellis be used for climbing, taking advantage of the shade of the original cover. for su su. Until July and August, the root of the tree is only slightly removed, continuing to take care to allow the rubber to regenerate in the new crop.

Rubber can be processed into many delicious and nutritious dishes

High mountainous areas have cool climates such as Sa Pa, Tam Dao, Lang Son, etc. chayote fruits in the summer, and in the winter (October onwards), due to coldness, the suede will die. In these areas, keep the seed by cutting the wire, leaving only 2m of the original part and circling the basket around the root, filling the mixture of fertilizer and soil to cover the warm tree so that it can be dormant in the eastern soil.

To Spring, in March when the weather is warm, the chayote will germinate and regenerate. Loosen the soil and apply the fertilizer and put the wire on the rig. In June, the fruits will be harvested and harvested until August, and by October, the chayote is old and can be used as a new fruit for the lowland areas that cannot be kept.
