I. maintenance method

1. Temperature: cucumbers like a warm growing environment. The normal growing temperature is between 20 ℃ and 32 ℃, and the low temperature should not be lower than 15 ℃. To avoid frostbite, pay attention to the high temperature. Try not to exceed 35 ℃. Otherwise, the branches and leaves will be burned easily, and cucumbers will be dehydrated, so the cultivation in winter needs to be in the shed.

2. Watering: during the growth period, cucumber needs enough water, which can promote the growth and development of seedlings. It's OK to water it almost every three days. During the flowering period, you can't water more to prevent excessive water from causing frequent flower drop of plants, so try to wait until the ground is completely dry before watering, just like once every seven days.

4. Fertilization: sufficient base fertilizer is needed before planting, which can help the growth of seedlings. At the same time, topdressing can be carried out many times during the growth period, mainly with chemical fertilizer. Of course, animal manure can also be used, which can improve the yield, increase the immunity of plants, and reduce the occurrence of some diseases and insect pests.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Propagation: sowing is the main mode of propagation. It can be planted in a large area. Sowing can be carried out in spring. At this time, the temperature is just right. After sowing, water should be poured through. Then in order to prevent water loss, you can cover a layer of fresh-keeping film, and then gently press it to help seed growth.

2. Pruning: during the growth of cucumber, the branches and leaves may be aging gradually, which can be cut off directly, because the branches and leaves after aging have no effect, in order to prevent nutrient loss, they can be cut off.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: the disease will occur during the growth period, causing the plant branches and leaves to turn yellow and some unknown gelatinous objects. Pesticides can be used to control

2. Insect damage: scale insects will appear on the branches and leaves in summer, seriously affecting the normal growth. You can use dichlorvos solution to spray on the branches and leaves. After spraying, you can't spray water on the branches and leaves. Continuous use for several times will have obvious effect.

4. Other issues

1. Toxicity: no poison, edible

cucumber
