Spacing and pruning of purple passion fruit.

摘要: In an experiment with purple passion fruit in which a row spacing of 1.8 m (wide) was compared that 1.2 (narrow) under four pruning regimes, severe, selective, light and no pruning, it found the narrow outyielded wide one over period three years. Severe gave lower yields than other treatments. The greater part yield produced during first cropping year there drastic decline Since vines were given supplementary irrigation, obtained throughout year, but marked seasonal trends not eliminated by irrigation. Spacing did influence size quality, selective heavier juicier severe pruning.
