Sowing The melon fruits are ripe from September to October in August, and the seeds left after eating are sown in time in autumn or mixed with wet sand for storage, and sown from March to April the next year. Before sowing the seeds, wash them with alkaline water first, then rinse them with clean water, and drain the water for later use. Sandy loam soil should be chosen as the seedbed, the bed width is 1.5 meters, the bed length is determined according to the plot, and the bed height is 15 cm. Open horizontal shallow furrows on the seedbed with a row spacing of 20 cm, with a depth of 3-5 cm, and sow about 100 seeds evenly into each furrow. After sowing, apply decomposed human and livestock manure and urine and cover with plant ash, and finally cover with fine soil about 1.5 cm. Autumn sowing is appropriate after the autumnal equinox, and spring sowing is appropriate after the startling sting. The thickness of cover soil for autumn sowing is 1-1.5 cm, and the thickness of cover soil for spring sowing is 0.5-1.5 cm. The seeds germinated and unearthed in mid-to-late April. At this time, pay attention to shading and irrigation to keep the seedbed moist. After the seedlings emerge, intertillage and weeding are combined with intertillage, weeding and topdressing. When the seedlings are 4-5 cm, the seedlings can be thinned, and 1 plant will be left every 5 cm. At the same time, use small bamboo sticks with branches to insert rows for climbing and promote seedlings. Grow. During the whole seedling growth period, the seedbed should be free of weeds and the soil should be moist. Water should be timely in drought, and drainage should be opened in rainy season to avoid accumulation of water and rotten roots. Topdressing timely to speed up the growth of seedlings. Seedlings can be transplanted after 2 years. Seed propagation is simple and easy.
Cultivation Techniques
Choose a place August melon is a shallow-rooted tree species with no main roots and particularly developed lateral roots, so the soil requirements are not too strict. However, they like light and calcium. Generally, sandy loam and medium loam with open terrain and sunny leeward should be selected, and water-flooded land is not suitable. The August melon planted in thick soil has a loose texture, water retention, strong fertility retention, good air permeability, fast growth, high yield, good quality, and low production cost.
Planting In winter, dig holes with length and width of 50 cm each and 30 cm in depth at a row spacing of 1.5 meters × 2 meters. When digging the holes, the topsoil and core soil are piled separately, and each hole is filled with about 30 kg of decomposed farmyard manure and mixed with the topsoil. Fill in the hole with the soil. Transplant the bred August melon seedlings into the hole before the sprouting of the August melon vines in spring. Avoid planting too deep to cause water damage. After planting, water thoroughly and cover the roots with about 10 cm thick grass. All weeds and crop straws can be used as mulch. After covering, evenly press some soil to prevent wind and fire.
Nurture The August melon seedlings are soft and colorful after they grow new shoots. They should be tied up in time to prevent herbivores from eating, and proper top dressing should be used to promote the growth of the seedlings. In August, melon blossoms, new shoots grow, and leaf curtains form at the same time. After the flowers fall, the young fruits are fast and long-term. When the tree body consumes a lot of nutrients, sufficient fertilization and water should be applied before flowering to ensure the tree body’s nutrient needs. During the fruit swelling period, the flower buds begin to differentiate, and it is advisable to increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, which can promote fruit maturity and facilitate the formation of flowers in the coming year. In the wild state, the self-pollination rate and fruit setting rate of August melon are very low, and the fruit drop is serious. In artificial domestication and cultivation, in addition to increasing the application of organic fertilizer, artificial cross-pollination should be carried out during the flowering period to increase the fruit setting rate. The new shoots of August melon have two kinds of short shrinkage branch and non-short shrinkage branch. The non-short shrinkage branch has the phenomenon of withered top, so there is no top bud. Flower buds are mixed buds, which often grow on the top of short shrunken branches or 1-year-old branch vines. The top flower buds are the main fruit. The pruning is mainly based on thinning, cutting off diseased branches, excessively dense branches, and weak branches. The top flower buds are the main fruit, and should be as short as possible or not shortened.
Main value
1. Watch August melon is evergreen in four seasons, finger-shaped compound leaves are green and beautiful, the branches grow fast, grow luxuriantly, and the leaf shape and color are unique. It blooms in spring and summer, with new shoots and leaves growing at the same time. The red-purple, green-white inflorescence is fragrant and pleasant. The lavender oar fruit can be enjoyed and edible in autumn. Its vines are soft and have strong tensile strength. It is an excellent climbing greening tree species. It can be used as a flower stand, scaffolding, fence, fence, tree trunk and other objects in the garden.

Growth habits: Verbena hybrida likes a warm and humid climate, with plenty of sunlight and intolerance to shade; it is more cold-tolerant and intolerant to drought, and is often cultivated as annual grass and flowers. It can bloom normally in the hot summer. The soil requirements are not strict, but it is planted on loose, fertile, and humid neutral soil, which grows robustly and blooms luxuriantly.
Little knowledge of growing flowers: 1. Soil: It does not have strict requirements on the soil, but it can grow roots in a loose, fertile, and relatively humid neutral soil, grow robustly, and bloom and bloom.
2. Watering: Because of its shallow root system, watering should be paid attention to in summer to prevent drought. Too much or too little water in the curing period is not conducive to growth. Too much water will result in weak stems and reduced blooming; lack of water will result in poor plant growth and early fruiting.
3. Sunlight: It needs to be maintained under shade conditions in spring, summer and autumn. When the temperature is high, if it is kept under direct sunlight, the leaves will become smaller, the internodes of the branches will be shortened, the feet and leaves will yellow and fall off, and the growth will be very slow or enter a semi-dormant state.
4. Temperature: It likes a warm climate and avoids extreme heat. It grows poorly when the temperature is higher than 35℃ in summer; it is not tolerant to frost and enters dormancy or death when the temperature is lower than 4℃ in winter. The most suitable growth temperature is 15-30℃. Planting is generally done in autumn and winter to avoid high temperatures in summer.
5. Fertilization: Like other grass and flowers, it requires more fertilizer and water, but it is required to follow the fertilization (water) principle of “light fertilizer, frequent application, small quantity and more frequent, complete nutrition”, and after fertilization, keep the leaves and water at night The flowers are dry.
6. Pruning: It usually performs topping twice before flowering to promote the germination of more flowering branches.
The verbena are not only beautiful in flowers, but also in various colors. They are very good ground cover plants for beautifying the environment and brightening the city. Mid-to-late September is the season for planting beautiful cherry blossoms. There are two planting methods: sowing and cutting. Here we mainly introduce how to sow Verbena hybrida with seeds.
1. to promote germination If the seeds are sown directly into the ground, the germination rate is very low, so we’d better start germination first. First prepare warm water of about 35-40 degrees Celsius, and then soak the seeds in the water. It takes about 3-10 hours. The specific time can be judged according to the degree of water absorption by the seeds. Wait until the seeds swell up due to sufficient water absorption, remove the seeds from the water, and the germination is completed.
2. Seeding First prepare the soil: if it is planting in the field, first consolidate the land, loosen the soil, add fertilizer and manure to make it suitable for the growth of Verbena hybrida seeds; if it is a potted plant, prepare potting soil, you can use leaf-mould or bean dregs soil make base fertilizer.
Then start planting: If it is planted in the field, first ditch the ditch with a distance of 3 cm between each ditch. Place seeds in the ditch with a distance of 3 cm between the seeds, and then cover with soil; if it is planted in a flower pot, use the “pot soaking method” , Put the seeds in the flowerpots with intervals, cover about 1 cm of soil, and put the whole pot in the water. The water should not be too deep, about half the size of the flowerpot. When the soil surface changes color, take it out and place it in a suitable place for cultivation.
3. Sunlight Management There must be enough light for the seeds to germinate and grow. Every day from 9 am to 4 pm, it is best to keep sunlight at these times. If it is covered with warmth, after it germinates, uncover the warmth so that it can grow healthily under the sunlight.
4. Thinning management After the seeds grow into small seedlings, there will be some weak, sick, and redundant seedlings. At this time, thinning management is needed. First, remove the weak, sick, and redundant seedlings to save soil fertility; then fill the areas where there are no buds with seedlings to make them grow neatly.
