Care and Maintenance
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist for the first 6 months. Deep water weekly, especially during dry spells.
Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) every 6-8 weeks during the growing season. Add micronutrients like zinc for healthy fruiting.
Pruning: Prune to remove dead or damaged branches and to shape the tree for better air circulation.
Pollination: Jackfruit is pollinated by insects. Plant pollinator-friendly flowers nearby to attract bees.
Harvesting: Jackfruit matures 5-7 months after flowering. Harvest when the fruit emits a sweet aroma, and the skin turns yellowish. Use gloves, as the sap can be sticky.
Planting Care
Soil: Select a location with well-drained, sandy or loamy soil. Loosen the soil at the bottom for better root penetration. Mix compost or well-rotted manure into the removed soil to improve fertility.
Location: Select a location with well-drained, sandy or loamy soil and protection from strong winds
Watering: Water thoroughly immediately after planting to settle the soil.
