Greenhouse cucumbers are remedy by ethephon

Recently, farmers in Feidong, Juchao and other places called to ask: Is the greenhouse cucumber remedy by ethephon?

Ethephon can effectively promote the differentiation of female flowers in greenhouse cucumber seedlings and increase cucumber yield. However, many vegetable farmers in production practice often cannot accurately use the drug concentration, causing the concentration to be too high, so that the seedling growth is stagnant, the flower topping, the formation of dead seedlings, and the growth point dry and die in severe cases. In this regard, the following remedies can be taken:

Strengthen fertilizer and water management. After the occurrence of phytotoxicity, according to the degree of phytotoxicity, increase the application of quick-acting nitrogen fertilizer and increase the number of irrigation to ensure sufficient water and fertilizer supply.

Increase the temperature inside the shed. The optimum temperature for normal cucumber seedlings during the day is 25-28 °C and 13-15 °C during the night. After the damage, the shed temperature should be increased to 30 °C during the day to promote the growth of the seedlings; the original low temperature can be maintained at night to ensure the continued differentiation of the female flowers.

Spray gibberellin. Cucumber four leaves and one heart stage have ethephon treatment, the concentration of more than 200 mg / liter is the occurrence of phytotoxicity, at this time can be sprayed with 20 ~ 50 mg / liter of gibberellin solution. When using, first dissolve it with alcohol or white wine and then prepare it according to the concentration, and spray it as soon as possible after the symptoms of phytotoxicity appear. Spray the second time after a week, and generally return to normal after about 15 days.
