The Right Way of Cultivating Srikaya

Srikaya nursery

In cultivation techniques of srikaya, first of all you must know the proper way for breeding srikaya for your cultivation business profitable. For the way of cultivation srikaya there are two ways to seeding, namely by generative and vegetative propagation.



Actually how to plant srikaya can be planted directly from the seeds of sweet fruit, but in propagation with seeds srikaya will experience the breakdown of properties due to seeds that are heterozygous srikaya. Therefore, planting with seeds from sweet fruit, there is likely to produce fruit that is not sweet.

How to Propagate

Because planting with seeds is uncertain, you should plant srikaya with vegetative techniques such as grafting, joints, and grafts. The proper way to plant is as follows. Seeds are still planted, but only as a forming population in breeding or repair of varieties and also as stems in vegetative propagation. Seeds can still be planted but only as the main tree. After a large enough tree vegetative propagation. Branches used in vegetative techniques have the same quality as the parent plant.



Characteristics of Vegetative Seedlings

Has the same properties even identical with the parent. Then quickly produce fruit. If only by seed, the new tree will bear fruit at the age of 4 to 5 years. Whereas if the vegetative weight will bear fruit at the age of 3 to 4 years only. Root riding is also equally strong, except for graft seeds because it is rooted in fake riding. Then is the process of planting.

Srikaya Planting Process is superior

The following is a step for preparing the rootstock seedlings of srikaya seeds for the nursery. First take the seeds from the ripe fruit or the old tree. Then wash the beans and air in the nursery. Do not get exposed to direct sunlight because it will easily die for treatment. Then plant the seeds using the media in the nursery after the seeds are dry. For growing media consists of manure and soil mixture with a ratio of 1: 2.

Make sure the moisture seeds in your nursery well guarded. After growing as high as 5 to 10 cm move into polybags. For polybags have a diameter of 20 cm. The polybagbed nursery uses a mixture of tanag and compost ratio of 1: 1, or manure and soil ratio of 1: 2. Dispose of seeds that grow abnormally like dwarfs. Seedstock from the seeds will be ready for vegetative propagation after the age of 6 to 12 months.

Shoot Connection

Make sure you have prepared branches of entris from indu trees that bear fruit bushy and superior, and taken from branches that leaves bud near old not young. After the rootstock is ready, cut the rootstock at a height of 10 to 20 cm. Then split the rootstock as deep as 3 cm from the surface with razor blade or sharp knife. Cut the branch of the entris in essence and give the remaining 5 - 15 cm from the growing point at the end of the branch. The two-sided incision faces the branch of the entris to a wedge or chisel of 3 cm long. Insert the entries on the seeds into the lower stem slits so that both sides of the incision are tangent to each other. Then cover with a sangkup. After looking buds, open the cups.

Keep the condition moist for normal growth of the scar. To reduce evaporation, reduce the leaves on the entris rod. Put the seeds in the open for one week to adjust to the state of the field. Plant the seeds of the connection on the ground if it reaches a height of 70 to 100 cm. Then you have to keep the seeds to grow well.
