獼猴桃，也被稱為簡單的“獼猴桃”，是一種受歡迎的可食用漿果，生長在溫帶地區(qū)的藤蔓上。雖然每棵藤蔓植物可以結(jié)出數(shù)百磅的果實，但這些植物通常需要三到七年的時間才能成熟。

Grow Kiwifruit Step 1 “種植獼猴桃步驟1”

Choose a type of kiwifruit. Growing kiwifruits from seed is a fun project and will give you a nice ornamental plant. Kiwifruit do not always grow true to type, meaning that your plant may not produce edible fruit like the one it came from.[2] If you want to grow a kiwi plant for its fruit, purchase a grafted plant from a nursery. Three major types of kiwifruit are:

選擇一種獼猴桃。從種子中種植獼猴桃是一個有趣的項目，會給你一個很好的觀賞植物。獼猴桃的生長并不總是完全符合類型，這意味著你的植物可能不會產(chǎn)生像它所產(chǎn)的那種可食用的果實。[2] 如果你想種植一種獼猴桃以獲取果實，可以從苗圃購買嫁接植物。獼猴桃有三種主要類型：
▲Kiwi packaging▲
Common kiwi – This is the type of kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) typically found in grocery stores. It is a brown, fuzzy fruit with a thick skin and green pulp. For optimal growth, it requires about a month of cool weather with temperatures ranging from 30 to 45 degrees Fahrenheit (-1 to 7oC). Common Kiwi can be grown in USDA hardiness zones 7-9.[3]

普通獼猴桃——這是一種常見于雜貨店的獼猴桃（美味獼猴桃）。這是一種棕色、毛茸茸的水果，果皮厚，果肉綠色。為了達(dá)到最佳生長，它需要大約一個月的涼爽天氣，溫度在30到45華氏度（-1到7℃）之間。普通獼猴桃可以在美國農(nóng)業(yè)部耐寒區(qū)7-9種植
▲Red kiwi fruit▲
Golden kiwi – Another popular type of kiwi, the golden kiwi (Actinidia chinensis) is sweeter but more delicate compared to the common kiwi. It is closely related to common kiwifruit but is less fuzzy and more yellow. This fruit grows best in zones that experience winter lows ranging from 10 to 30 degrees Fahrenheit (-12 to -1oC).[4]
▲redkiwifruit▲
金獼猴桃——另一種受歡迎的獼猴桃，金獼猴桃（獼猴桃）比普通獼猴桃更甜，但更精致。它與普通獼猴桃關(guān)系密切，但不太模糊，更黃。這種水果在經(jīng)歷10到30華氏度（-12到-1攝氏度）的冬季低溫的地區(qū)生長得最好

Kiwi berry – This name usually refers to two different kiwi species, the hardy kiwi (Actinidia arguta) and the super-hardy kiwi (Actinidia kolomikta). These kiwifruits are much smaller compared to common and golden kiwis and have a thinner, smooth skin. As their names suggest, this type of kiwi is the most cold-tolerant and can be grown in areas that experience harsh winters.[5] These varieties are sometimes able to produce fruit after just one growing season, in contrast to most others that take years to mature.

獼猴桃漿果——這個名字通常指兩種不同的獼猴桃，耐寒獼猴桃（arguta獼猴桃）和超級耐寒獼猴（kolomikta獼猴桃）。與普通獼猴桃和金色獼猴桃相比，這些獼猴桃要小得多，皮膚更薄、光滑。顧名思義，這種獼猴桃是最耐寒的，可以在經(jīng)歷嚴(yán)冬的地區(qū)種植。[5] 這些品種有時僅在一個生長季節(jié)后就能結(jié)出果實，而其他大多數(shù)品種則需要數(shù)年才能成熟

Obtain kiwifruit seeds. If you've decided to grow common kiwifruit, getting seeds can be as simple as going to the grocery store and buying a fruit. According to some gardeners, seeds from organic fruits are more likely to germinate and grow hardy adult plants. For more exotic types of kiwi, you can order inexpensive seeds online from a variety of vendors.

獲取獼猴桃種子。如果你決定種植普通的獼猴桃，那么獲得種子就像去雜貨店買水果一樣簡單。根據(jù)一些園丁的說法，有機(jī)水果的種子更有可能發(fā)芽并生長出耐寒的成年植物。對于更具異國情調(diào)的獼猴桃，你可以從各種供應(yīng)商那里在線訂購便宜的種子。
▲Kiwi sapling▲
To remove seeds from a fresh kiwifruit, simply slice the fruit in half and scoop a them out with your fingers or a spoon. Place the seeds in a small bowl or cup and rinse them to remove the fruit. To rinse, swish water around in the bowl and strain it back out a few times.[7]

要從新鮮獼猴桃中取出種子，只需將其切成兩半，然后用手指或勺子舀出。將種子放在一個小碗或杯子里，沖洗干凈，取出水果。要沖洗，在碗里用水沖洗，然后濾出幾次

Keep in mind that most kiwi growers favor purchasing young plants created through propagation from nurseries rather than sprouting them from seeds. This is partly because propagated cultivars possess traits that are much more consistent over generations. Additionally, most varieties of kiwifruit are delicious, meaning that both a male and a female plant are required for fruiting to occur. Since the only way to tell the difference between the two is through their flowers and flowering usually takes three or more years to start happening, it's difficult to accurately space seedlings for optimal pollination and fruit production.

請記住，大多數(shù)獼猴桃種植者傾向于購買通過苗圃繁殖而成的幼苗，而不是從種子中發(fā)芽。這在一定程度上是因為繁殖的品種具有世代更加一致的特性。此外，大多數(shù)獼猴桃品種都很美味，這意味著雄性和雌性植物都需要結(jié)果實。由于區(qū)分兩者的唯一方法是通過它們的花朵，開花通常需要三年或更長時間才能開始，因此很難準(zhǔn)確地為最佳授粉和果實生產(chǎn)安排幼苗。

Sprout your seeds. Place your seeds in a resealable plastic bag along with a damp paper towel. Zip the bag up and put it in a warm spot. Check your seeds every day until you see that they have sprouted.
發(fā)芽你的種子。將種子與濕紙巾一起放入可重新密封的塑料袋中。把袋子拉上拉鏈，放在暖和的地方。每天檢查你的種子，直到你看到它們發(fā)芽。
▲redkiwifruit▲
If you notice the paper towel drying out before your seeds have germinated, be sure to moisten it again. The seeds need a humid environment to sprout.[8]
如果你注意到紙巾在種子發(fā)芽前就已經(jīng)干了，一定要再次弄濕它。種子需要潮濕的環(huán)境才能發(fā)芽

Plant your germinated seeds. Prepare and moisten a few pots of seed starter potting mix, one for every three or four seeds. Tear off a section of the moistened paper towel you used to germinate the seeds that has a three to four seedlings clinging to it. Plant this, paper towel piece and all, into one of your pots. Repeat until all seedlings are planted.[9]

種下你發(fā)芽的種子。準(zhǔn)備并弄濕幾盆種子發(fā)酵劑盆栽混合物，每三到四粒種子配一盆。撕下一段濕潤的紙巾，你用來發(fā)芽的種子上有三到四棵幼苗。把這個，一塊一塊的紙巾都種在你的一個花盆里。重復(fù)上述步驟，直到所有幼苗都種植完畢

Place your plants in a spot that gets plenty of light. Windowsills are generally the best choice unless you have a basement equipped with grow lights.
Young plants are especially sensitive to winter chills, so many growers keep their kiwi plants indoors for the first two years or so.[10]
Remember to transfer your plants to new, larger pots as they begin to outgrow their smaller ones. At this stage, begin boosting their nutrition using a generic starter fertilizer.[11]

把你的植物放在光線充足的地方。窗臺通常是最好的選擇，除非你的地下室配備了生長燈。
年輕的植物對冬天的寒冷特別敏感，因此許多種植者在頭兩年左右將獼猴桃植物放在室內(nèi)
記住，當(dāng)你的花盆開始長得比小花盆大時，要把它們轉(zhuǎn)移到新的大花盆里。在這個階段，開始使用普通起子肥料來增加他們的營養(yǎng)
