Melia Dubia Plantation March, 2014

Progress : Melia Dubia : March, 2014


Now they are one year old and as far as their growth is concerned, it is not up to the mark.

Reasons :

  • Lack of sufficient watering in last summers  [ April - July ] and later on in winters. I had only watered them once a month due (instead of once a week) in summers due to lack of proper irrigation system. Although the specie of Melia Dubia is robust and can survive without watering for months, it costs them their growth heavily

  • Lack of proper plowing [ regular plowing makes soil better for water absorption and also help in nitrogen generation ] 


Now that I have made arrangements for regular watering, I hope the trees will recover their growth soon...!!






















In the beginning,  most of the trees will have uneven growth in terms of pattern and height. This is normal. Once they achieve their age of 3+, most of them will achieve the same level of growth.
