The kumquat tree is an evergreen shrub or small tree, the fruit is golden yellow, fragrant, and the fruit is long, which is an excellent fruit viewing flower. During the Spring Festival every year, you can always see large potted kumquats in various places, golden fruits hanging from the branches, the taste is sweet and sour, and it looks mouth-watering. Some flower lovers will buy a pot to put at home to add to the festive atmosphere. But why did the kumquat tree start to fall off its leaves and fruits before it was fresh in its hands, and finally there was very little fruit left on the whole tree?
Kumquat deciduous leaves: First, kumquat prefers loose and breathable acidic sandy soil. It is possible to use ferrous sulfate roots every month to prevent soil alkalinization and keep the potting soil in a slightly acidic state. Generally in the breeding base are the land cultivation of kumquats, with the gradual growth of kumquats, some of the root system will be rooted in the ground very deep, so in the sale will be deep in the soil of the root system shoveled off, so that the root system damage, in the short term may not be able to see, if you buy back plus improper maintenance, it will cause leaf fall. Second, the optimal growth temperature of kumquat is 20 ~ 30 ° C, below this temperature, it is easy to fall leaves.
Kumquat falling flowers: After the potted orange tree blossoms, a large number of flowers compete for nutrients, at this time we should not be greedy, do not be soft, and boldly thin the flowers. Generally each branch can retain 2 to 8 buds, the rest are sparse, if you are not willing to remove excess flowers, it is bound to cause insufficient nutrient supply to cause flowers to fall.
Kumquat falling fruit: Many flower friends reflect that their kumquat was full of fruit when they first bought it home, but within a few days, the leaves fell first and then fell fruit, which was very depressed. What are the causes of kumquat fruit fall? Analyze together: First, lack of light: kumquat likes a sunny environment, if it can not effectively photosynthesis in too dark an environment, it will naturally cause the phenomenon of falling leaves and flowers and falling fruits. Second, too much watering: In fact, some plants are not drought-dead, they are all watered to death. Kumquat trees can not be watered during the flowering period and fruit setting period, and can only be watered normally after stable fruit, and the potting soil can be kept moist every day, otherwise it is easy to fall flowers and fruits. Third, lack of nutrients: kumquat can bloom many times in a year and bear fruit many times. Therefore, sufficient fertilizer is needed to supplement nutrients during the maintenance process, and more microbial agents can be applied before and after flowering. Fourth, the fruit thinning work is not done well. Generally 2 to 3 pieces of kumquat thinning fruit can be retained per branch, and too much fruit will cause the burden on the plant to increase and the nutrients will be insufficient. At this time, we must do not be greedy and be cruel, otherwise it will cause more pain to fall fruit.
