Which month has the highest survival rate for transplanting kiwifruit? The best time to plant kiwifruit

Kiwi fruit, also known as fox peach, is native to southern China. It is called kiwi fruit because kiwis like to eat this fruit. Kiwi fruit is soft in texture, sweet and sour in taste, and contains a variety of trace elements that are beneficial to the human body. It is deeply loved by people. The following is a detailed explanation of the planting time and method of kiwi fruit.

When to transplant kiwi fruit

Kiwifruit trees are suitable for transplanting in spring , and it is better to transplant them in March or April after the temperature warms up at the beginning of recovery . It is neither too cold nor too hot during this period, so there will be no frost damage or sunburn after planting, which is conducive to the recovery of growth after planting.

Of course, planting in autumn is also possible. The time to plant kiwifruit is late autumn and early winter, but before frost or snow comes, it is better to plant early rather than late. At this time, the seedlings are entering or have entered a dormant state, and the root system has a long time to recover underground, which is conducive to the vigorous growth of the seedlings next year.

First of all, we should choose hilly mountains for planting. Such places have good sandy soil and are rich in humus, which can make kiwifruit grow more healthily.

After choosing a location, start selecting varieties. It is recommended to choose "five good varieties" that are good-looking, delicious, easy to grow, easy to sell, and easy to store . Note that kiwifruit is a dioecious fruit tree. When planting, you must plant male and female trees to produce normal fruits .

How to plant kiwi seedlings

1. Fertilization

Kiwifruit is relatively resistant to barrenness and does not need to be fertilized frequently. When kiwifruit is first planted, it is necessary to adopt a small amount of fertilization multiple times. We need to ensure sufficient nutrients to meet the growth needs of kiwifruit seedlings. After they grow up, they need to be fertilized three times a year, and appropriate topdressing can be applied twice during the period.

2. Growth temperature

Kiwifruit is native to the south, which naturally makes it cold-resistant. Its average growth temperature is between 11.3 and 16.9 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is too low, artificial temperature control is required to prevent it from suffering from frost damage, resulting in adverse consequences such as flowering withering or less fruit.

3. Watering

Kiwi fruit likes moist soil and needs to be watered frequently during planting, especially between May and July. At this time, kiwi fruit plants grow faster and sufficient water supply should be ensured. If necessary, some water mist can be sprayed on the plants to keep them sufficiently moist.
