Peach
Fertilization Point
Peach tree will
age quickly if nutrients are insufficient since fertilizer absorbing power is
strong and root is shallow.
1. Basal application
of fertilizer - Fertilize before root becomes active
If basal
application of fertilizer is late, risk of falling fruit or epinasty rises
since fertilizer response will appear late.
Excessive
fertilization of poorly decomposed compost or organic fertilizer is the main
cause of nutrient imbalance and salt accumulation.
⇒ Soil application with CERES (4-2-1+70% organic matter)
1000KG/1ha between the time leaves fall and the resting stage.
(Soil application
with 100KG/1ha if NUTRI POWER was not fertilized after harvest)
2. Additional
fertilizer – Fertilizer absorption volume is most robust for 30 days from
mid-June to mid-July.
If nitrogen is
excessive, risk of falling fruit increases during the stone-hardening stage and
harvest maturity is delayed during the ripening phase.
Provision of
potassium and calcium must be sufficient.
⇒ 1st additional fertilizer in end of May – Soil application with NK CALMA 200KG/1ha.
⇒ 2nd additional fertilizer in end of June - Soil
application with NK CALMA 200KG/1ha.
3. Thanksgiving
fertilization – Replenishes consumed nutrients after fruit harvest
Fertilize by
considering the fruit setting amount and tree vigor.
⇒ Normal tree vigor- Soil application with NK CALMA
100KG/1ha + soil application with NUTRI POWER 100KG/1ha.
⇒ Soil application with NUTRI POWER 100KG/1ha if tree
vigor is strong
Various Disorders
and Problems that Occur During Peach Cultivation
1. Falling fruit
prevention – Mainly occurs if root is weak or occurrence of ethylene is
frequent
⇒ Manage so that the root is wide and deep: Irrigation
with THE ROOTS 15~30L/1ha.
⇒ Supply calcium in a stable manner from the root: Irrigation
with CALSTAR GOLD 30L/1ha
2. Pit split prevention – Mainly occurs
from the first part of June to last 10 days of June
⇒ Induce fruit growth in a stable manner from the point
after flower falling: Irrigation with NK CALMA 200KG/1ha + foliar spraying with
POLY CAB 1000x as additional fertilizer after fruit setting.
3. Dehiscent fruit
prevention – Sudden moisture provision after drying is the main cause
⇒ Improve physical property of the soil: Basic
fertilization with CERES(4-2-1+70% organic matter) once per year
⇒ Improve nutrition relation to resolve excessive nitrogen
and calcium shortage - Irrigation with NK CALMA 200KG/1ha + foliar spraying
with POLY CAB 1000x after fruit setting
4. Flesh browning
prevention: Peach flesh turns brown and becomes soft.
⇒ Supply calcium aggressively from young fruit period to
fruit enlargement period - Irrigation with NK CALMA 200KG/1ha + foliar spraying
with POLY CAB 1000x after fruit setting
5. Succulent shoot
overgrowth prevention – Continuing extension after mid-June will cause risk of
frost damage, defective extension of secondary root, and defective floral
initiation.
⇒ If basic fertilizer is excessively fertilized or organic
fertilizer impacts till late: Foliar spraying with CAP2018 500x or BALANCE PRO
1000x
6. Leaf wilting
prevention and recovery: Stoma function decline and fall in root function due
to tree vigor weakness
⇒ Recover root function – Irrigation with THE ROOTS 30L/1ha
⇒ Reinforce leaf vitality – Foliar spraying by mixing SEAWEED F 500x and MAG MICRO
1000x
7. Leaf etiolation
phenomenon prevention and recovery: There is concern of early defoliation due
to lack of nutrients
⇒ Magnesium deficiency prevention and acquisition of
strong leaves: MAG MICRO 1000x + DOUBLE K 250x
8. Defective shoot
prevention and recovery - Initial germination is late and germinated leaves are
small and thin.
⇒ Supply micronutrients – Foliar spraying with COMBI Ⅰ 2000x
⇒ Shortage of accumulated stored nutrients - Soil
application with NUTRI POWER 100KG/1ha after harvest
9. Pollination defect
prevention and recovery – Pollination is not occurring because blooming is defective,
and pollen is small.
⇒ Pollen hormone formation – Foliar spraying by mixing GS BIG 1000x + GS-BORON 1000x
⇒ Shortage of accumulated stored nutrients - Soil
application with NUTRI POWER 100KG/1ha + soil application with NK CALMA
200KG/1ha
10. Fruit enlargement
defect prevention and recovery
⇒ Activates cell division from blooming until fruit
setting occurs – Foliar
spraying with GS BIG 1000x
⇒ Promotes enlargement during the young fruit period - Foliar
spraying with FRUITFUL 500x + POLYCAB 1000x
⇒ Balanced nutrient provision during fruit maximum growth
period – Foliar spraying with
DOUBLE F 250x +SEAWEED F 1000x
⇒ Basic fertilization and additional fertilization are
essential
11. Defective coloring
and sugar content prevention and recovery
⇒ Excessive nitrogen during the coloring period - Foliar
spraying with CAP2018 500x or BALANCE PRO 1000x
⇒ Even though fruit setting amount is large, weak tree
vigor is a problem -
Foliar spraying
with DOUBLE PK 250x +LUK S 500x
⇒ Enhance sugar content and coloring - Irrigation with
SUGAR&COLOR 20L/1ha and foliar spraying with COMBI Ⅱ 2000x
12. Manage blight like
anthracnose and bacteriosis: Eco-friendly bio product that replaces pesticides
⇒ Foliar spraying with SSR-ALL or MOLD OUT 1000x
13. Manage insect
pests like mite, plant louse, moth community, etc.: Eco-friendly bio product
that replaces pesticides
⇒ Foliar spraying with
SSR-I(1,2) or JJB GOLD 1000x
