1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: its cold resistance is particularly strong. It will not freeze when the temperature is lower than minus 20 degrees, but it will not grow. When the temperature is about 30 degrees, its growth state is the best. It is also very heat-resistant. It will continue to grow when the temperature is higher than 40 degrees, but if the temperature is too high, it will affect the fruit setting rate. Therefore, when the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, it should be considered to cool it

2. Watering: it has good drought resistance. It can continue to grow even when the surface water content of the soil drops to 5%. It is very sensitive to moisture. When the rainfall is abundant and the distribution is reasonable, its growth will be very good and the yield will be significantly improved. If the plant is in a dry environment for a long time, it will cause the quality of almonds to decline. If it doesn't rain for more than two months, it needs to be watered once a week

3. Fertilization: the first fertilization is in early spring or late winter, and the fertilizer is mainly nitrogen fertilizer; The second fertilization is in the expansion period of plant fruit, and the fertilizer is mainly nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer; The third fertilization is after the fruit harvest. The fertilizer should be mainly animal manure. When applying fertilizer, it should be combined with deep turning in autumn. In order to improve the utilization rate of fertilizer, it should be combined with spraying Gaoxin lipid film. At the same time, it is necessary to irrigate the plants, which can also improve the utilization rate of fertilizer

4. Light: it is a light loving tree species. Sufficient sunlight plays a vital role in the fruit setting rate of the plant. If there is enough light, it will grow well and the fruit quality is good; If the light is insufficient, the plant will develop poorly. If possible, the light time every day should be more than six hours

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation: it can be propagated by grafting. Grafting propagation mainly uses budding propagation, and T-shaped budding is the most common. Put the skin tube on the bud eye of rootstock, a little tight, and don't bind it after it is set. The time of budding is generally from May to August, because the vitality of the plant is the best at this time, and the success rate of grafting is the highest at this time

2. Pruning: pruning is required during the growth period, and the bad branches from flowering to falling leaves in autumn are cut off

3、 Problem diagnosis

1. Insect pest: the plant is easy to be infected with peach aphids. Dimethoate should be used to spray the infected branches, usually once a week, three times a course of treatment

2. Disease: the plant is easy to be infected with root rot, which will lead to the root rot of the plant. In serious cases, the plant will die. Carbendazim wettable powder needs to be sprayed for treatment

4、 Other issues

1. Edible: edible

2. Other functions: the wood of the plant is the main raw material of fine wood products and can be used to make furniture
