【カボチャ】その花を残すと実が減ります。昔の農家さんが教えた、葉と根を先に育てる育て方【家庭菜園】

It's easy to feel relieved when pumpkin flowers bloom early. However, if you leave flowers and fruits on the plant while it's still small, the plant's energy will be used first to develop leaves and roots, weakening it later and potentially preventing it from producing fruit. Farmers in the past didn't rejoice just by looking at pumpkin flowers. They first looked at the number of leaves, the thickness of the vines, the stability of the base of the plant, and whether the roots were spreading well. This video will discuss important concepts for growing pumpkins quickly and large, based on observations in the garden. What to do with the first flowers? Is it okay to let small plants produce fruit? Why does hilling encourage root growth? Why is watering only the base of the plant insufficient? What should you do when small fruits turn yellow and fall off due to unsuccessful pollination? There are important concepts common to vegetables that grow vines and spread large leaves, such as pumpkins, cucumbers, zucchini, and watermelons. Focus on developing leaves before rushing fruit production. Before celebrating the flowers, look at the roots. Just by returning to the wisdom of farmers from a little while ago, your perspective on pumpkins might change. If you're growing pumpkins in your home garden, if your plants are flowering but not producing fruit, if your fruit is turning yellow and falling off, or if your plants aren't growing large, please read to the end. Do you leave the first flowers on your pumpkin plants in your garden or field? Or have you ever heard of the traditional method of removing the flowers?
