Planting

  • The limb cuttings are planted in well prepared pits of 60 x 60 x 60 cm at spacing of five metres for perennial types. For annual types pits 45 x 45 x 45cm are dug with 2.0 x 2.5m or 3.25 spacing. The pits are filled with a mixture of top soil and 120 kg FYM. Seeds can be either sown in situ in the prepared pits or can be transplanted after raising the seedlings in PE bags. The PE bags may be size of 15 cm length and 4 cm width. The seedlings are ready for planting in one month after sowing .An additional numbers of 75 to 100 plants are to be raised in PE bags separately for gap filling after one month of planting.
