LAND PREPARATION
- The land must be well cultivated, the ground is hoeed or plowed to loose.
- If the soil pH is less than 6.5 should be given agricultural lime with a dose of 2-3 tons per hectare.
- Make beds 1 m wide and 30 cm high, the length of the bed adjusted to the length of available land.
- distance between beds 3m - 5m.
- Give mature manure to the bundle with a dose of 1-2 tons per hectare or 2-3 kg per planting hole.
- Planting hole made by ditugal with a distance of 50 cm - 60 cm.
- Manure hole is made 10 cm - 15 cm apart from planting hole.
PLANTING
- Plant the pumpkin seeds in the planting hole that has been prepared as much as 2 to 3 seeds per hole as deep as 1 cm - 2cm. Then cover with soil (do not compacted) then flush.
- If you have difficulty with growing power, seeding / seed germination can be done first
Basic fertilizer is given perforated holes with Urea: SP 36: KCL = 7.5 g / plant. : 15 g / plant. : 10 g / plant.
- Do the optimum watering by looking at the soil conditions around the plant.
- The seeds will grow 7 - 10 days later.
MAINTENANCE
Basic fertilizer is given perforated holes with Urea: SP 36: KCL = 7.5 g / plant. : 15 g / plant. : 10 g / plant.
- The seeds that do not grow should be embroidered immediately.
- Add the 2-2.5 meters tall around the stem. Then, add the bamboo strung up on the wood buffer so that it becomes the interlocking boxes. The series of bamboo is box-shaped to be about 30 x 30 cm or adjusted to local conditions. The bamboo and wood buffer joints must be strong because they will support the heavy fruit.
- Plants that stick out should always be trimmed will not spread everywhere. Do not let the plants overlap. Apply 1 week's weaning.
- Dispose of weeds or grasses and other plants that interfere with the growth of pumpkin plants.
- Following fertilization respectively 25 HST and 45 HST with ZA 7.5 g / plant. And KCl 5 g / plant
SPRAYING
- Spray the plants with pesticides and fungicides in turns every 2-3 days.
- Pests that often attack include: Dew flour, anthracnose, viruses, myths, caterpillars, small beetles and aphids.
- What is important is the observation of plants every day to anticipate attacks of pests and diseases.
HARVEST
