How to grow grafted Durian tree- Durian Tree Cultivation Technique to fast harvest 

Glad you liked it

If you have any questions feel free to contact me

Thank you 😊

The wind can be a problem if too strong the fruit will come off .maybe you could grow a wall of tall trees in front of the durian to block the wind ,

Thanks Don

Thanks

I would love to .

Thank you

Glad it was helpful!

When you get ready to top your trees trim back one meter .Once topped, cut any new growth .Most farmers in Thailand do this now

Next year we should start producing not much but a few years later then the numbers will look real good 👍

Glad it was helpful!

Congratulations on your new farm . Welcome to the channel Pedro! We make mounds so the trees don't get waterlogged in the root system during the monsoon season . Another advantage is when we stress the trees out to start flowering by reducing the water the mounds can dry out faster getting better results . I hope this helps👍

Thanks for the sub!

Yes we seal them right away

@@TMDurianfarmer what do you use? I have seen the red cement type used

@@jaydenwaters6617 I also use the red one

Ph 5.5 - 6.5 Double durian planting will help with wind storm resistance and maintenance will be convenient. The yield will be increased from the same planting area.

I had to do a lot of research to learn what I know .I researched reports from Thailand agriculture ministry and Malaysian ministry that were posted on Google and from speaking with farmers that have been growing Durian for a long time.Its never ending learning .

We are in kanchanaburi

I have most at 50 nothing shorter. For now As they grow I'll choose the final branches and bring the branches up

I'll start topping the trees that have reached their target height of 4 m.Ill do a soft prune back to the next upright branch. The next prune will be a hard prune I'll cut them back 1 m once the trees reach a height of 7m . I've seen them plant as close as 5m I think that is too close .I prefer to maintain my orchard with a tree distance of 6x7 or 7x7 This is ideal for maintenance with my sprayer I have for my tractor . Reducing labor cost is top of the list for making a profitable farm ,that one of the issues with high toped trees

6 m is our target height.We don't top them until the target height is met .After that we will prune them to control the shape and height

@@Bamboohugger I use ground dressing and foliar sprays

That's to help heal the cut

@@TMDurianfarmer thanks. What is it?

I am trying it so far it's okay

@@TMDurianfarmer keep us updated brother, can't get enough seeing your Durian trees.

I see your point but if they are breaking then they are to small for the amount on them.when topping the trees branches grow much thicker and can sustain a heavy load but still you can't allow to over load a branch this is for all fruit trees .

Sometimes there is no chance to even trim off some young fruits, furthermore the amount of rain water and fertiliser dictates the fruit size / weight. Strong wind during rainy season (fruit expansion stage) is one of the main problem too. Of course tying up / supporting the branches helped.

@@doverol9378 many factors come into play not easy to navigate the process best we can do is make sure our branches are strong enough to handle the fruit we allow to grow on them .I see it around my area where some farmers get excited and try to grow too many and they break when bad weather arrives so it's important to not overload a branch.I know it's easier said than done.

It takes 4 to 5 years for bud grafted durian trees to grow fruit.where is your farm located ?

Still worth doing for sure. It’s located by Khon Kaen mate

@@BenEdwards-pk2jy it's a little dryer there just make sure you have a good reliable water source and good sprinklers system and you should be fine . Check the pH of the soil it needs to be from 5.5 to 6.5 also your water

I’ll look into that and watch a few more of your videos, thanks. Is there any specific soil they won’t grow in or is it just a matter of keeping the correct ph level?

@@BenEdwards-pk2jy the soil needs good drainage so stay away from soil with lots of clay ideal is Sandy loam soil

I buy my sprinklers from the global house

We are growing monthong

I plant 6m x 7m double trees that are 1 m planted apart

@@TMDurianfarmer is it ok if the distance bet. Trees is about 5 meters?tnx

Yes many farmers are turning to the growing method . There are a few older farms that have the high top trees .

@@TMDurianfarmer my trees are 4.5 years old (3.5 years in the ground at my farm and 1 year old at the nusary) They look more like 3.5 years (i think paying extra for the big trees was a waste as they had a very long adjustment period where they didn't grow well) Bottom branches are 50cm from ground and we have always trimmed to keep brances well spaced and fairly Horizontal' Am I too late to start the Top Trimming?

I talk about it in a few of my vids. Well the reason we plant two is for a higher yield .Durian trees also seem to die easily and by having two we get a bit of insurance if one dies we have the other. In my farm I have 350 double planted trees .out of all those doubles 15 of them one died and the other lived no need to replant as we still have one in the ground .. Durian is not an easy plant to grow

I'll have to look into that.my double trees I will keep them both and prune to accommodate each other .There are farmers in Thailand that had experimented with this and found that it had increased the yield per Rai by 35 percent,My idea is I get the insurance and if I never use my tree policy I'll get dividends on having two.

Taiwan does not grow durian. Agriculture about fruit orchards. In the ASEAN region, Thailand and Malaysia know more about fruit than any other country. There are more than 40 kinds of fruit in Thailand that farmers grow as economic fruit.

Taiwan Does grow a large quantity of high-quality Durian. Dont talk about things you dont know.@@suarsivapong9311

Depending on your growing method . I'm planting high density and will control the size by yearly pruning

@@TMDurianfarmer ok.. Thank you for your response, sir.. Would you mind if you would share it with me the exact planting distance in your farm?

@@thetruthseeker1239 I'm planting 7x7m

so, approximately that's 22.9 inches? doesn't look 7m in the video and it actually seems too closed.. But thank you for the info.. 🙂@@TMDurianfarmer

@@thetruthseeker1239 photos and vids are deceiving not actual , I look skinny in my vids but I weigh over 105 kilo 😁

Double tree planting to get higher yield

thanks so much for the videos - im gonna watch all and subscribe !

I have a vid that will answer your question and watch this ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-M3HmOlAy3iQ.html

We space them 1 m

Starting in November

@@TMDurianfarmer thanks

In kanchanaburi

4 to 5 years

The LHTS is great for farms that have issues with wind.With a lower top you can plant closer together helping the trees withstand the wind in Addition to the low top .Good luck with your farm and keep us posted with your progress .
