It is recommended to buy large seedlings for more than 3 years when planting kumquat at home, and it will be more fulfilling to grow, blossom and bear fruit directly. It's the end of spring, and it's the fastest growing time for kumquat fruit trees. At this time, not only branches and leaves will grow, but also the first spring flower will bloom. Maintenance at this time is very important, because the first batch of spring flowers is the largest and the best quality. The following are three key points of kumquat conservation in late spring.
First, protect the environment;
Kumquat likes sunny, warm and humid climate. Home maintenance kumquat is recommended to be placed in an outdoor sunny place. The more sunshine, the better kumquat grows and the more it blooms. Another advantage of outdoor conservation is that it can be pollinated by factors such as wind and insects. After potted kumquat pollination, the seed setting rate will be higher and the outdoor ventilation will be better. A well-ventilated environment can reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. If it is kept in a semi-closed full sunshine environment,

Second, fertilization;
Kumquat fruit trees have a high demand for nutrients in the growing period. Now you can use organic fertilizer to fertilize and bury it on the surface of the basin soil once a month or so, so that nutrients can penetrate evenly when watering. Using organic fertilizer can not only avoid soil hardening, but also enhance the resistance of plants and reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. In addition, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, potassium dihydrogen phosphate or Huaduoduo 2 can be applied at flowering stage and diluted with water at the ratio of 1200.
It is about to enter early summer. It is not recommended to use a large amount of nitrogen fertilizer in early summer, because although nitrogen fertilizer will make kumquat fruit trees grow many branches and leaves, the branches and leaves that grow at this time are called "summer shoots". Too many summer shoots will rob the fruit of nutrients, and the growth and development of the first fruit growing on the branches will be affected.
Third, water;
Watering kumquat fruit trees in spring is also very particular, because the demand for water in the growing period is relatively high, but watering too much is easy to cause water accumulation and stuffy roots, which will lead to the emergence of flower buds, so it is necessary to master the water quantity in spring. Generally, wait for the surface of the basin soil to dry for 2-3 cm before watering, and then pour it thoroughly. In case of continuous rainy season, observe the state of basin soil and do a good job of drainage.

The first potted kumquat will bear many fruits, not all of which can grow up. From mid-late May to early June, fruit dropping may occur, but it is not very serious, and the branches and leaves are not in an abnormal state. Then fruit drop is normal at this time, because "physiological fruit drop" will occur, which is the survival of the fittest of the plants themselves. Small fruit and weak fruit trees are normal phenomena. The remaining fruits can absorb more nutrients and grow better.
