Analysis and Prevention of Watermelon Hollow

Hollow is one of the most common problems whether it is ordinary watermelon or good watermelon. Why is watermelon hollow? In general, it is mainly caused by the following reasons.
First, the temperature is low when the fruit is established. Watermelon flowering and setting temperature is suitable for 25 ~ 30 °C, the minimum daily average temperature is 20 ~ 21 °C. After the fruit is set, the fruit of the watermelon is disintegrated before the young fruit is unwooled, and the number of cells in the fruit is increased, and then the watermelon fruit is rapidly expanded through the cell expansion. If the temperature is too low when fruit is set, the speed of cell division will be slow, and the cells in the fruit will not reach enough quantity. In the later period, with the increase of temperature, the peel will expand rapidly, and the fruit cannot fill the fruit due to insufficient cells. The space inside is hollow.
Second, fruit development during the rain and sunshine. Fruit development must be based on sufficient nutrients. If there are more rainy days and less light during the actual development period, photosynthesis will be affected, resulting in a serious shortage of nutrient supply, affecting cell division and increase in cell size in the fruit, and the need for pericarp development. The nutrition is relatively small, and it still develops quickly when nutrient is insufficient, thus forming a hollow. In addition, excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer, excessive rainfall or excessive watering, unsuccessful squashing, etc., lead to plant leggy, stem and leaf cover, affecting photosynthesis, and stem and leaf growth and fruit competition for nutrients, will also make nutrients supply Insufficient emergence of hollow.
Third, the fruit section is low. The first female flowering melon, due to low temperature during fruit setting, poor pollination and fertilization, coupled with the small leaf area at that time, insufficient supply of nutrients, the ventricular volume can not be fully increased, and in case of high temperature, the skin rapidly expands, it will also form a hollow .
Fourth, the lack of water during fruit development. The development of watermelon fruit not only needs sufficient nutrients, but also needs enough water (too much water is not good), if the real expansion period is severely lack of water, the cells in the fruit can not be fully expanded to form a hollow.
Fifth, too much harvest. Before maturity, the nutrients and moisture of the watermelon are transported to the fruit. When it is mature, if it is not harvested in time, nutrient substances and moisture will appear backflow phenomenon. From the fruit, the fruit will be hollow due to the loss of water and nutrients. This phenomenon is more pronounced in varieties with fast fruit development.
The causes of the hollow water melon are complex and are affected by many factors such as temperature, light, fruit placement, fertilizer and water management and harvesting. In order to prevent the hollow of watermelon, comprehensive cultivation measures should be used to create an ecological environment conducive to the growth of watermelon. For watermelons that have been fruited but with malformed melons, the melons should be promptly removed and the compound fertilizer should be added to promote the branching of the watermelons, which will grow robustly and re-establish fruit set. For watermelons that are sitting but ripe for sowing, we must promptly remove the first bit of the young melon, and choose to stay in the third or fourth quarter to sit and avoid the watermelon hollow. Watermelon pollination of watermelon after fruiting period is seriously short of water should be promptly appropriate irrigation, to prevent dehydration hollow, avoid spraying hormones.
