What are the cultivation methods and precautions of rich coconut

How to cultivate rich coconut

The rich coconut, also known as the tassel coconut, is a plant of the palm family. It has a high ornamental value. The propagation method is sowing, and it will begin to germinate half a month after sowing.

The Coconut Tree is generally propagated by sowing, and must be sown immediately after harvesting. It has a wide adaptability to soil and can be cultivated in ordinary garden soil. It should be placed in a semi-shaded environment, and a thin layer of fertilizer can be applied once a month, and the moisture of the potting soil must be guaranteed.

Watering method

The Coconut Tree likes a humid environment and needs to be provided with sufficient water during its growth period. The temperature is high in summer and water evaporates quickly, so it can be watered in the morning and evening, and its leaves should be sprayed with water frequently to increase the humidity. In winter, try to water as little as possible. At this time, the main thing is to keep the soil dry.

Fertilization method

The rich coconut palm does not have high requirements for fertilizer. Under normal circumstances, liquid fertilizer can be applied once every half a month during the growth period. In late autumn and when winter is approaching, the growth of the plant slows down, so less fertilizer can be applied or even no fertilizer can be applied.

Pruning methods

Generally, the pruning method of the palm tree is from bottom to top. The incision of the leaves should be consistent and not uneven. In addition, it is best to cut off some old and diseased branches inside the plant during pruning.

Things to note when cultivating rich coconut

The Coconut Tree cannot tolerate waterlogging. It is better to water it dry than wet. It needs to be watered thoroughly each time. In addition, the plant is prone to brown spot disease in a high temperature and high humidity environment. At this time, it must be treated with medication in time. Scale insects will appear due to poor ventilation. At this time, they must be scraped off manually in time and controlled with medication.
