Plant a jacquier tree in a coconut
Planting a jacquier tree in a coconut is an original and ecological idea to grow this tropical fruit tree. The jacquier, also called bread tree, is appreciated for its large sweet and nutritious fruits. Coconut, on the other hand, provides an environment conducive to plant growth thanks to its nutrient-rich composition.
Materials required:
- An empty and cleaned coconut
- A healthy, bicolored jacquier tree
- Quality soil
- Water
- A sunny place
Steps to follow:
1. Coconut Preparation:
Start by thoroughly cleaning the coconut to remove all remaining flesh inside. Then drill a few small holes at the bottom of the coconut to ensure a good drainage.
2. Coconut filling:
Fill the coconut with quality soil, leaving enough space to place the jacquier tree.
3. Planting of the yellowing tree:
Take care to choose a healthy, bicolored yellowing young tree. Gently plant the tree in the coconut soil and slightly slice the soil around the roots.
4. Watering:
Water the freshly planted jacquier tree abundantly to promote its rooting. Keep the soil moist but not wet.
5. Location:
Place the coconut containing the jacquier tree in a sunny and sheltered place. The jacquier appreciates the heat and direct sunlight.
6. Maintenance:
Make sure to water the tree regularly, especially during dry periods. You can also add balanced fertilizer to promote tree growth and fruit development.
- Monitor the development of diseases or parasites and act quickly to treat them.
- Protect the tree from cold temperatures in winter by covering it with a winter veil if necessary.
- Tree size to give it a harmonious shape and promote abundant fruiting.
By following these steps and taking care of your jacquier tree planted in a coconut, you can enjoy delicious organic fruits directly from your own garden. Good culture!
