How long does it take for an agarwood tree to grow into a mature tree?

The approximate cycle of planting agarwood trees is about 5-10 years, and when the tree reaches a certain centimeter, it can be planted with fungi and artificial incense, and the tree species can stabilize the yield of incense in about 5 years. In a 5-year cycle, the agarwood tree can grow to about 3 to 5 meters and a diameter of 8 centimeters, which is an adult agarwood tree. Agarwood trees that are more than 8 years old produce a large amount of agarwood and are known as the best quality trees.

Of course, when choosing seedlings, we should choose high-quality agarwood seedlings, which have strong adaptability, high survival rate, and guaranteed planting benefits. Annual seedlings, stem height of 50-70 cm, generally grow lush after 3 years of planting, can be picked to make health tea; 4-5 years of flowering and fruiting, the fruit can extract refined oil, is an important medicinal chemical raw material; 8-10 years after the growth is faster, can artificially make incense, agarwood is the market shortage of precious Chinese medicinal materials, high-quality spices, but also can make expensive handicrafts. The agarwood tree is an evergreen tree in all seasons, and the tree shape is tall and beautiful, so as to bring good ecological benefits.

Agarwood trees are generally suitable for planting in spring. In March-April, the temperature gradually warms up. At this time, it is beneficial for its growth, especially planting in rainy days, which can improve the survival rate. If it is a bagged seedling, the time requirement for planting is not high.

1. Dig a pit: dig a pit before planting seedlings. The pit is generally 50 centimeters long and wide, and 40 centimeters deep. After digging, fill a little topsoil at the bottom of the pit, the topsoil is relatively loose and rich in humus, which is an ideal base fertilizer.

2. Planting: When planting, it is necessary to ensure that the seedlings are upright and the root system is fully comfortable. Then start filling the soil, layer by layer, to ensure that the contact between the root system and the soil is sufficient. Do not press the soil too firmly, and pour water on the roots, which can improve its survival rate.

3. Water and fertilizer: Agarwood trees have a high demand for water and fertilizer. Watering should be done to ensure that the soil is moist and that the humidity of the air is also increased. Fertilization generally only chooses compound fertilizer, which can be applied 4-5 times a year, and be careful not to apply it to the trunk.

4. Pruning: Pruning the branches of agarwood every year. Leave a little side branch and start pruning upwards as the seedlings grow taller. Weeds should also be removed so that they do not absorb water and nutrients from the soil.

Agarwood trees need to be planted for eight to ten years to produce incense, and more than eight to ten years of agarwood trees can produce the most and better quality agarwood, pay attention to abnormal situations, agarwood may be fragrant, need to pay attention to slight insect pests, is conducive to the production of incense, but when the infection is serious, carbendazim should be sprayed in time for prevention and control.

Agarwood trees need to be planted for eight to ten years to produce incense, and more than eight to ten years of agarwood trees can produce the most and better quality agarwood.

If you want to have more agarwood trees and good varieties, you need to do a good job of management during the growth period of the plant, as long as the cultivation and weeding during the growth period of agarwood, and timely fertilization, pay attention to slight insect pests, which is conducive to the generation of incense on the plant, but in serious cases, it is necessary to spray pesticides for control.

In the process of maintaining agarwood trees, it is necessary to water to keep the soil moist, but there can be no water accumulation, reduce watering in the rainy season, and do a good job of drainage measures, in addition to applying compound fertilizer to the agarwood tree twice a year to promote the growth and flourishing of the plant.

Although slight insect pests are conducive to the formation of incense trees in agarwood trees, it is necessary to regularly check the growth of the plant during maintenance, and if pests and diseases are found, it is necessary to remove and burn the leaves of the insects and diseases in time, and spray methyl tobuzin, dimethoate, etc. for control.
