My Very First Fruit Trees
I bought two fruit trees in May 2010; one Ciku tree (or sapodilla) and one mango tree from a plant nursery opposite RRIM Sungai Buloh main entrance. It costs me RM 40 for the ciku and RM75 for the mango. The price reflects the height of the plant; the mango tree was double the height of the ciku tree. I planted the ciku tree into the land on the side of my house a few days after I bought it. The mango tree was fruiting well at the time I bought it but for some reasons, the fruits all fell down prematurely. I think that is becasue I left the tree on a concrete floor for too long (approximately 1 month). Even with the poly bag still on and I watered it every evening the heat from the concrete floor might have dried the water out the limited amount of soil in the poly bag.
