Best Ways Of Planting Black Kingkong Wax Apple

By Sharon Meyer


Fruits are sweet, and most people love them a lot. Among these refreshing fruits is the wax apple, which is commonly referred to as Jambu. This is the type of fruit that is described as being sweet as well as crunchy and has a fragrance that resembles that of light rose. On top of these qualities, it is very hydrating and filling and is a very great fruit during the summer season. Below discussed are some of the tips of planting the black KingKong wax apple.

This fruit is liked by many people because of its unusual qualities. It is one of the best and can grow in your compound. Many of those who look for it grow it in their backyard. The fruits from these trees are of different types and amongst them is the black apple, which is mainly planted in Los Angeles.

Planting these trees in your home is not a big deal. You only have to get the seedling from a good seller. Make sure that the vendor you have has good quality seeds, and if not so, you can search for other retailers online. If you are not ready to plant the seeds on the ground, you should make sure that you protect them first.

Getting the right spot to plant the tree is also vital since these trees should be planted in places where they will get either partial or full sunlight. Do not get any shady places to plant these trees. Make sure you remove the space to plant first from weeds and grass. Verify that the soil is loose with the aid of a tiller or shovel. Creating compost is also crucial.

When you are through with the land clearing, you can now dig the holes in which you will plant your seedlings. The holes, which you dig, should be much bigger than that which the seedling grew in and twice as much as wide. This space will be enough for the roots of the plant to spread thus enabling it to draw nutrients and moisture well from the soil. This will help the plant to be healthy and also to have a faster growth.

Weeds will ultimately destroy your plantation, so good care should be taken by weeding the garden to get a good crop. Ensure you have good soil whereby its temperature and moisture are maintained. The wax apple trees consume an average amount of water hence it is important that you have a drip irrigation system.

In case you are thinking of adding fertilizers to your tree, you should reconsider since these trees do not need too much fertilizing. Application of fertilizer once per year is just enough. In the course of the cold temperatures, mostly if the tree is planted in the tropical regions, a frost shield will be of great help.

There are pests like aphids, which attack the flowers and buds of the plant. These pests are very dangerous, and this is why you should keep them away from your plant. Use the citrus leaf spray or the horticultural oil to keep them away so that your plant can grow peacefully and give you the much-needed fruits.
