Temperature: Its cold resistance is not very high, and the minimum temperature should be kept at about 15 degrees. Watering: A lot of water is needed, and watering needs to be done according to the different growth stages of the plants. Light: Only when the light is sufficient can you grow good fruits. Only when the light reaches the standard can you grow healthily. Fertilization: Adequate nutrients need to be added to increase yield.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: It is not resistant to cold, so the suitable time for planting is around May every year. At the same time, the lowest temperature in the environment should be kept above 15 degrees. Of course, the optimal growth temperature is around 25 degrees.

2. Watering: If you want to ensure normal growth, The demand for water is relatively high. When the seedlings are young, they need to be watered in time to speed up their growth. At the same time, they also need to be watered according to the growth period of the plants. When the fruits are about to mature, watering can be increased. Amount, this can ensure that the fruit has more moisture and is more tender.

3. Light: Sufficient warm light needs to be provided , under conditions of sufficient light, it will grow faster. At the same time, after absorbing enough light, the fruit of the plant will be larger and the yield will naturally increase. If there is not enough light, the fruit will be smaller and the yield will be smaller. Pity.

4. Fertilization: It is necessary to supplement nutrients to make the soil It must be fertile enough to grow relatively robust plants. At the same time, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer needs to be reduced, otherwise the plants will grow leggy, flowering will be unsatisfactory, and the yield will be affected.

2. Breeding skills

1. Propagation: Seedlings are the main method of reproduction. When raising seedlings, choose healthy seeds and then cut them into different small pieces. The weight of each piece needs to be kept at about 30 grams, and each piece needs to have a bud eye. Then just plant directly, then pay attention to watering and temperature, and wait for germination.

2. Pruning: It does not need to be pruned , because its fruits are ultimately harvested, but during the breeding period there may be some problems that will appear on the branches and leaves, so they can be pruned in time.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: Black spot will affect its fruits and eventually render them inedible, so wettable powder can be used to prevent and control them.

2. Pests: cutworms may appear, It will chew the roots and cause serious consequences to the fruits, so it can be sprayed with a dilute deltamethrin solution to completely eliminate it.

IV. Other questions

1. Toxicity: It is not toxic, and its nutritional value is very high and its taste is very good.

2. Can it be grown at home: Not suitable , generally grown as crops in fields.
