Key points for planting bergamot

1. Buddha's hand likes sunshine, warm and humid environment, is not cold-resistant, not shade-tolerant, and avoids strong sunlight. The suitable growth temperature is 25~35℃, and it is suitable for loose, fertile, well-drained acidic sandy loam.

2. Buddha's hand does not have strict requirements for climate and land environment, and the plant itself is quite cold-resistant. However, if we want it to have high yield and high quality, we need to deep plow the land.

3. Before the fruiting period, the bergamot should be fertilized with fertilizers that promote the growth of strong branches. We apply farmyard manure and nitrogen-containing fertilizers 10 days before the plant sprouts in spring, summer and autumn. We use the method of ring ditch fertilization, digging a ring ditch about 30cm wide and 25cm deep, and then fertilizing and covering with soil.
