Second, choose good planting varieties. There are many varieties of jujube. A high-quality variety must have good tree growth, strong resistance to pests and diseases, good fruit crack resistance, good fruit shape, good fruit color, high nutritional content and good taste. At present, the excellent varieties used for drying are Jinsifeng, Jinsimei, Seedless Red, Seedless 1, Seedless 3, Zanhuang Jujube and so on. Among the early-maturing varieties, the excellent varieties of fresh food are Zaocuiwang, Jingwei fresh jujube and early-maturing pear jujube. Excellent varieties for processing include pear jujube, Zanhuang jujube and so on. Late-maturing varieties are mainly used for fresh food, and high-quality varieties include Jingwei Daxue Jujube and Dongzao Jujube. New and special varieties, such as Mopan jujube and Hulu jujube. Ladder-heated jujube and dragon-beard jujube with peculiar fruit shape and tree shape. Jujube farmers can introduce and cultivate according to their needs, or choose high-quality scions for grafting cultivation.
Third, choose a good training mode. 1. Dwarf close planting cultivation is mainly suitable for varieties with early fruiting and small plant type, and the plant spacing is 2m× 3m or 3m× 2m. The second is intercropping cultivation, which is mainly suitable for varieties with medium or large plant type and late fruit bearing, and the row spacing is 8- 10 meter. The plant spacing is 3-5 meters. Other crops can be interplanted among trees in the early stage.
Fourth, choose a good training time. Jujube trees can be cultivated during the whole dormant period from defoliation to germination in the second year, which can be divided into spring planting and autumn planting. According to many years' cultivation experience, the survival rate of roots and tillers planted with 2-year-old and over-2-year-old seedlings can easily reach more than 90%, even if planted in autumn, it is difficult to reach more than 90%. However, the survival rate of autumn planting can reach more than 70% even without watering, while the survival rate of spring planting without watering is obviously not as good as that of autumn planting.
