Why do you use lights to light dragon fruit at night? What kind of lights do you use to fill light?

When planting dragon fruit, the use of light at night can meet its needs for light growth, which can shorten its growth cycle, help better pollination, but also promote it to bloom in the off-season, during the flowering and fruit, but also improve the quality and yield of the fruit. If the light time is short, it will affect its normal growth, but also reduce the quality and taste of the fruit, so it is necessary to use lights to fill the light at night.

Why do you need to light dragon fruit at night

Dragon fruit is a tropical plant, it itself is very like the sun, and many areas of the light is generally difficult to meet its growth needs, it needs to accept half a day of light every day, as long as this can meet its needs. If it is in the winter, you can create a more suitable environment for growth, see light during the day for a short time, fill the light at night can break its hibernation, but also promote its faster growth, so that you can harvest fruit faster. And after the light to fill the light of the dragon fruit, its taste will be sweeter.

In addition, its flowering period is relatively short, and it can be pollinated by light at night, because it blooms before sunset and closes at dawn, so pollination must be carried out before dawn. In addition, if it encounters continuous rainfall in the summer, it is also necessary to fill the light.

What kind of lamp does dragon fruit fill light use

When giving dragon fruit fill light, use LED plant fill light on the line, in many shops or online can buy special fill light. Generally, the light suitable for dragon fruit is pale pink and white light, and the fill light purchased in the market is usually available. However, in order to achieve better results, it is still recommended to buy a reliable fill light.

Dragon fruit planting how to choose fill light?

The light suitable for dragon fruit is, roughly speaking, divided into a blue part and an orange-red part. In the blue light band, only a small section of the dragon fruit has a peak light filling efficiency, and the rest is slightly less efficient. So is the orange-red light.

If you want to perfectly simulate sunlight to fill the light, the cost of one mu of land may be 50-60,000 yuan, the cost is too high, not suitable for large-scale promotion of large areas. Therefore, what is done on the dragon fruit now is to fill the light, rather than replace the sunlight. The supplementary light is aimed at insufficient sunshine conditions, such as the rainy season, which can supplement the light, thereby promoting the weight gain of the fruit and the early fruit.

Precautions for dragon fruit lamp:

1. The distance of filling light should be determined according to the structure and light distribution of the lamp used, as well as the power of the lamp. The greater the power, the farther the natural distance can be, so the coverage of the light will be larger.

2. There are many kinds of lamps used for filling light, which should be determined according to the actual planting method and the position that needs to be illuminated. But now the lights on the market are used to fill the light, from a few dollars to more than ten dollars. Generally choose more than ten yuan is better.

3, dragon fruit fill light with lamps, recommended to use 220 volts, it is more stable than 380 volts. 380 volt /220 volt universal type can also be used, single-use type is also feasible, AC/DC AC DC power supply is also available, but the cost is slightly different.

Why should dragon fruit be lit with light

Shining light on the dragon fruit is to fill the light of the plant.

1. Dragon fruit is illuminated with light at night in order to fill the light of the plant, so that it can still maintain photosynthesis under natural no light conditions, helping to accumulate more edible parts. Another reason is that the dragon fruit itself needs up to half a day of light every day in order to achieve normal life activities.

But most of the time is not up to the requirements, especially in winter, the daytime time is less, so it is usually through this way of filling the light to help the plant return to normal life activities, but also to help break the hibernation of the plant, accelerate its development, to obtain the effect of early maturity. Generally, plants that have been treated with light will produce sweeter results, far exceeding those that have not been treated with light.

2. There will also be light replenishment in summer, because it is very likely that there will be rainy days in summer. Through light replenishment, it can help improve the effect of photosynthesis, ensure that the fruit is subject to the standard light, slow down the adverse effects of rain, and obtain better taste to obtain a better market.

Filling light is not so simple as simply relying on the illumination of the lamp, but it needs to be adjusted according to the development of the plant, and it also needs to adjust the temperature range, so that the plant can better develop and ensure that the yield increase.
