Kao-pin area is the warmest area in Taiwan during winter season. Under normalclimate, the average temperature at 4-6 a.m. in January and February is about 15.77°C, and cold currents usually fall to 10.79°C. Especially the accumulated times of 15°C lowertemperatures always reach to 9.8 (6-14) hours long one day, and influence greatly on the flowering of watermelen plants. The light material of white nonwoven fabrics floated on watermelon plants can raise some temperatures when cold currents arrive duriny winter season. The flowering of pruned watermelon plants will be post-poned, and more concentrated for the convenience of hand pollination, especially at the inactivities of honey bees due to the long periods of low temperatures. The fewer vines we pruned, the earlier flowering and fruit-setting we obtained. The more vines, the later flowering and fruit-setting we obtained. The watermelon plants of spring crop with the long periods of low temperatures are unsuitable to be pruned and usually postpone the flowering and lose the advantageous opportunity of higher prices at early stage. |
