Here's How to Cultivate Petai 1. Choosing Quality Petroleum Seeds
To get the seeds of petai plants, we can do seeding (generative) or by grafting (vegetative)
But the most widely used is through the way of grafting because in that way, the petai
plant will be more fruitful Here's how to cultivate petai plants:
a. Prepare a seedling rootstock or the result
of a banana plant that grows wild b. Then place it in a medium of seedlings or
polybags c.

Look for shoots from the petai plant that
has been fruitful d. Cut the stem of the seedling result of a certain
size e. The outer shell of the bud from the petai
parent plant is slashed in equal measure f. Paste the shoot incision with the bottom seed
then tie with the rope If you do not understand the nursery problem,
petai seedlings can be found in the seed shop around your residence
Need to be considered in choosing seeds because the seed condition will affect the continuity
of growing petai plants in the future Seedlings must be really healthy and free
of pests it must also have fresh green leaves and not
withered and also has sturdy stems and not dry
also select seeds with branching shade 2.

Planting media
petai plants will flourish on land with an altitude of 10 to 800 meters above sea level
planting areas need to be clean of weeds so that petai plants can quickly adapt to their
new environment the soil should be sufficiently loose and
rich with organic matter, and get direct sunlight Things to note if you are interested to plant
petai in pots include the following: a. Use a pot that is large enough because the
petai plant will grow bigger and requires a lot of nutrients
choose a pot with size 40 cm (diameter) and height 45 cm
b. Prepare the planting medium with the composition of soil and compost / manure that has been
fermented and charcoal husk stirring until evenly and rest about 2-3 days
let in the sun The goal is that plant diseases and pests
can die in the planting hole 3. Planting Process
seeds 6 months old are ready to move Choose the seeds with old leaves and do not
plant when the seeds sprout Open the basket or polybags wrapping the seeds
of the seedlings, be careful not to break the ground
Plant seedlings and pile with media which is prepared td sdh then solid
Stockpile should not cover the former grafting because it can cause fungus
Finally flush the soil so that the soil pores meet so that evaporation does not occur
Then, position the seeds perpendicular not to tilt when closed by the media planting
4.

Watering
Perform watering and fertilizing regularly every day
That is to keep the soil moisture media Do not give excessive fertilizer
fertilize according to the dosage and age of the plant
5. Install the plant enforcer
Installation of plant enrichment equipment is highly recommended in newly planted petai
plants plant enforcement tool serves as a supporter
so that plants are not easily disturbed from the environment
we can make a plant enforcer from bamboo with size adjusted to the size of the seeds
6. Fertilization
after the 4 month old plants do fertilization with manure
How to dig the soil around the plant and fertilizer input and pile up the soil
Regular fertilization is needed by petai plant Because the nutrients in the planting medium
continue to be absorbed and over time will be depleted
Therefore, to restore soil fertility and nutrients that at all times remain, we need to apply
fertilization on a regular basis 7. Weeding
In order for plants to grow properly, weeding weeds or other plants that grow around the
plant This is so that the nutrients needed are well
absorbed by the plant 8.

Stimulate the Emergence of Flowers / Fruit
Petai includes a fairly old crop to produce fruit
From the grafting results of petai plants will produce fruit at 4-5 years old
So in the growth of plants we need to apply the fruit stimulating hormone either
9. Treatment
In addition to fertilization applications, other treatments will support the growing
petai plant optimally such as regular watering 1-2 times a day but
conditioned with moisture on the soil clean if the grass grows around the petai
plant Pruning should also be routine once every
3 months to produce new stem canopies to stimulate the fruit fast petai plant
Pruning also avoids plants from pest attack Spray also pesticides regularly to prevent
from plant pests the purpose of pruning is to shorten the plants
for easy harvesting, regulate the balance of carbohydrates and nitrates in plants to
be fruitful Do also change pots every 2 years
because this petai plant grows rapidly growing requiring larger pots than before
In addition, do the substitution of planting media for plant nutrients to stay awake
do not forget also to do the packing of fruit petai early in order to petai free from fruit
flies 10. Harvesting Petai
