1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: the temperature suitable for its growth is between 9 degrees and 23 degrees. The temperature when the fruit is mature should be maintained between 19 degrees and 23 degrees. Persimmons at this temperature are not easy to fall off and disease, which can improve the yield

2. Watering: it is relatively drought resistant. If the annual rainfall is more than 500ml, there is no need to irrigate it. If it is a potted plant, it is generally watered once a week. The amount of each watering need not be too much to ensure that the soil is completely wet

3. Fertilization: it can tolerate barrenness, but it doesn't mean it doesn't need fertilization. Generally, fertilization is required once every two weeks in the growth period, not in the non growth period, and once before winter to ensure safe winter

4. Light: it likes to live in a sunny environment. If it is a plant maintained indoors, it can receive all day sunshine without human intervention. If the plant is maintained indoors, it needs to be maintained in a place with sufficient sunshine, and the light time every day cannot be less than eight hours

In November, soak the rootstock seeds for 24 hours, then mix them with wet sand and put them in a cool place with a leeward wind. After the spring of the next year, they can be sown. The sowing depth shall be kept at about 3cm. After sowing, it shall be covered with plastic film. After the plants emerge, they shall be interspersed and transplanted in time

2. Trim: it generally does not need to be trimmed. After the fruit is harvested, it can be properly pruned. The pruning objects are mainly dry, rotten and fruiting branches

3、 Problem diagnosis

1. Insect pests: it is easy to infect persimmon cotton scale. If it is found, it needs to be sprayed with diesel emulsion before the plant sprouts in spring. This can eliminate overwintering pests

2. Disease: the defoliation of the plant is likely to be caused by water shortage. Especially in case of drought, make up the water for the plant in time and water it once a week

4、 Other issues

1. Eat it: it can be eaten, but the elderly and children should not eat more, otherwise it will lead to indigestion
