Small plants with little fruits - itulah kacang bendi yang ditanam 4 months ago.
At another location also same thing,
pokok2 yang kurus, kecil buahnya juga kecil dan sedikit
While the one that tumbuh sendiri (benih dibawa air masa hujan) was much..much..better
Healthier and bigger plant with more fruits
So his words macam suatu cabaran to me to do better, i planted again some bendi one and half month ago, inilah resultnya so far,
Pokok yang kelihatan besar sebenarnya adalah lebih dekat dgn pokok2 lain yang lebih tinggi disebelahnya- much bigger and healthier, sedangkan pokok2 yang sebelah atas kelihatan much smaller.walaupun jauh dari shade..
Trying to figure out, mungkin bendi lebih subur ditempat agak terlindung dari menerima direct sun. Ini kerana daripada pemerhatian kebanyakkan bendi yang tumbuh sendiri ditempat yang agak terlindung (walaupun dicelah2 pokok2 yang lain) adalah lebih besar dan sihat sedangkan yang berada pada open space dan mendapat cahaya sepenuhnya macam terbantut pula pembesarannya..
Maize is the best indicator in determining the soil fertility. You can do a simple experiment by planting maizes all around the place. See which one grow better which also indicates the area is ok to plant other crops. While the one that didn't grow well, you just need to add more compost on it.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot wong, very useful information, i never know about it before..indeed at the same place, beside the okras i've planted some maizes, they r growing good alhamdulillah..next time i'll take yr advice and put compost before planting..tq again..
DeleteI am new at planting bendi, but my plants seem a bit slow growing too in the direct sun. Maybe not enough fertiliser too.
ReplyDeletei realised sometimes the gardening tips we read from book/ internet not giving us the right guides...
