Flower pot selection: Larger and deeper flower pots should be selected for cultivation, with the best depth being about 30cm. Temperature management: The temperature should be kept at around 20°C during the growth period. Usually, it can grow at around 10°C. Water management: It has a high demand for water. It is necessary to keep the soil in the pot moist and increase the frequency of water supply in summer. Nutrient management: When fertilizing, organic fertilizers are mainly used, and some nitrogen fertilizers or potassium fertilizers are also used.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Flower pot selection: Loquat is a relatively tall plant with deep roots, so you should choose a larger flower pot when growing it at home. The depth of the flower pot is best about 30cm, so that its growth will not be affected by the problem of growing space.

2. Temperature management: Loquat needs higher temperature during the growth process. Generally speaking, it can grow at 10℃, but the optimal growth temperature should be around 20℃.

3. Water management: It is suitable for growing in relatively humid areas. Environment, when potting, keep the soil in the pot moist. In summer, you need to increase the frequency of watering appropriately and combine it with spraying water to make the surrounding air humid.

4. Nutrient management: The fertilizers used for fertilization are mainly organic fertilizers, and potassium fertilizers should be used during fruiting. During the week before and after picking fruits, organic fertilizers can be used together with nitrogen fertilizers.

2. Breeding skills

1 2. Shelter from rain: Loquat fruits go from the rapid expansion stage to the maturity stage, and some varieties are prone to fruit cracking. The main reason is that it is rainy, so in order to improve the yield of fruits, we can choose artificial rain shelter to avoid it.

2. Summer: Sustained high temperatures above 30°C in summer will affect the growth of plants and the development of fruits, so in midsummer, water should be sprayed to cool down.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1 , Pests: Regarding the pests and diseases of potted loquats, ventilation and drainage should be the main focus. When minor insect infestations are found, you can use a small woolen tool to brush them off. When they spread in large quantities, you can spray a small amount of 0.5-0.9% Bordeaux mixture.

2. Leaf loss: Loquat tree leaf loss may be caused by excessive watering, which causes waterlogging at the roots. To remove the plant from the growing medium, cut off any rotted roots. Then replant it into loose soil and keep it ventilated until it recovers.

IV. Other issues

1 , Edible: Edible, the fruit of the loquat tree is a common edible fruit.

2. Whether it can be exposed to rain: It can be exposed to rain, but if it is in the rainy season, the drainage of the soil must be checked to avoid root rot caused by excessive water accumulation.
