Growing saplings in Coconuts
Hello my fellow Steem members,
Today i came across a fascinating way of growing nursery saplings and I had to share.
Process:
- Punch holes in the bottom of the coconut for the root system
- Fill the coconut with soil and plant a seed in it.
- Plant the coconut in a field.
Merits:
- This removes the need to use plastic containers for saplings
- The coconut is biodegradable and provides nutrients necessary for plant growth.
- The coconut is also provides as a vessel for water retention.
Happy Steeming!
