Kumquat can grow four times a year, but the fruit grows the most with the first flower. The first long flower is probably in the middle and late June, the second in July, the third in August, and the fourth from the first ten days of September to October. It usually takes about 150-170 days from flower growth to fruit ripening.

I. long flower bearing period

1. It can grow flowers in the second year after one year's planting. It mainly takes the treetops that grow in spring as the mother branches of the flowers. It can grow flowers four times a year, but the fruit that grows out of the first flower is the largest

2. Its first long flower is in the middle and late June, the second in July, the third in August, and the fourth from the first ten days of September to October. It usually takes about 150 - 170 days from flowering to fruit ripening.

II. Maintenance during long flower bearing period

1. First of all, the water volume should be less than usual. Do not add fertilizer to it. After the flower withers, the fruit just grows about ten days, this time also can't pour too much water to it, otherwise the fruit just grows is very easy to fall.

2. Wait until the fruit grows stably, then it can become a normal watering component, and there should be a certain amount of water in the basin. When the fruit is ripe, it is necessary to increase the amount of watering. In the early stage of fruit growth, do not add fertilizer to it, or its fruit will fall, until the fruit is as big as beans, then add some fertilizer to it.

3. During the growth of fruit, some long and too dense fruits, diseased fruits and smaller fruits should be removed to make nutrition more concentrated. At the same time, the fruitless branches can be removed, so that the fruit has more space and the sun can penetrate. After fruit setting, if a new treetop grows, it should be removed in time, otherwise it will not only waste nutrition, but also affect fruit bearing.

4. In order to prevent the leaf from shrinking and the fruit from drying, it is necessary to soak the tobacco in the water, and then spray the tree with this water, which can help it avoid insect attack, make the fruit grow more healthy and the leaves more green.
