How does the wild agarwood tree produce incense?

The key link in the formation of incense: fungal invasion. The fungus produces a lot of metabolites in the anaerobic environment, and these metabolites contain a large number of new aromatic substances that the agarwood tree originally did not have, and these aromatic materials are the ** of the agarwood aroma. You can go to the incense supreme to view.

1. Hang the needle to the trunk and inject artificially cultivated bacteria into the trunk to make it fragrant, but the fragrance produced by this method is poor, and may be toxic and harmful to the human body, and there will be pinholes on the surface of the agarwood.

2. Cut wounds, choose a large tree with a trunk diameter of more than 30cm, cut several times on the trunk with a knife at a height from the ground, the wound is 3 4 cm deep, and the xylem near the wound secretes resin, which gradually turns brown and black, and the wood with resin is cut after a few years. This new wound continued to produce agarwood after a few years.

3. Broken branches, choose branches with a certain thickness, cut them off, and the resin will begin to secrete on the wound, gradually turning brown and black, and there will be agarwood after a few years.

4. The way to artificially intervene in the agarwood tree to make incense, with a hot iron rod through the agarwood tree is the meaning of the fire eye, which seems to be a very simple and stupid way, but it is quite laborious, these are the agarwood trees that have been burned with the eyes, waiting for the agarwood to be knotted.

Agarwood incense features:

Under normal circumstances, the agarwood tree will not produce incense until it is injured. Only after knife cutting, insect decay, disease and rot, infected by a fungus, may be under the action of enzymes secreted by mycelium, resulting in a series of changes in the starch or other organic substances stored in some parenchyma cells of the wood, and finally form balsam. Therefore, it can be facilitated by human intervention.

The chopping method usually selects 8 10-year-old standing trees with a trunk diameter of about 30 cm, and cuts a few times at a distance of meters from the ground, with a distance of 30 40 cm between knives and a wound depth of 3 4 cm. After a period of time, the xylem near the wound will secrete oily substances, which will gradually turn black brown after a few years, which is called agarwood, and the longer the better. It is still possible that the wound caused by the incense will continue to form incense.

Agarwood knots need to be injured by some means before the incense tree can secrete resin to produce incense.

Most of Hainan Shen are raw knots, such as plate heads, shell sinks, and there is a kind of incense tree that is injured due to animals and natural disasters, and the principle of this incense is the same as that of the knot, so it is also considered to be a knot, in general, the knot is the incense that refers to the external force that causes the incense tree to be injured and knotted.

I found that agarwood incense mushrooms are sold on Alibaba and **, as well as incense operation methods, you can search for agarwood incense mushrooms to find.

Agarwood tree knot agarwood is a very magical and wonderful process of nature, after the agarwood tree encounters trauma damage in the natural growth, out of the instinct of the plant will secrete resin (also an antibody) to make up for the wound, and during this healing and healing period, the wound site of the agarwood tree happened to be infected by a microorganism called the yellow-green fungus, this fungus in order to survive in the tree, will be in the tree to do the adversity metabolism, is a wonderful biochemical reaction process and form agarwood.

Because of some injuries such as lightning strikes, insect bites, and man-made felling, some wounds will be formed, and this wound may become a fragrant mouth. If the wound does not heal in a short period of time, the surrounding tissue cells will be infected by bacteria, resulting in lesions, at this time the sap in the agarwood tree will exert its immune effect, and will form an oil block at the wound to protect, this oil block will continue to spread along the wooden duct of the agarwood tree, and after a long time of alcoholization reaction, it will form a mixed substance of oil and wood, which is the incense formation process of agarwood.

Choose a slightly acidic soil with breathable and fertile characteristics. 3. Planting: Dig a pit in the soil first, apply liquid fertilizer, and put the agarwood seedlings in.

4. Half-cut dry method: cut a few wounds at the base of the trunk and let it form incense on its own.

1. Planting time

Agarwood trees like to grow in warm climates, in order to make them fragrant, they can be planted in March and April in spring, when the climate is relatively mild, the temperature is above 15 degrees Celsius, and the plants can grow quickly after planting and will not develop poorly.

2. The soil is suitable

Agarwood trees prefer slightly acidic soil, and if you want to make the plant fragrant, you can maintain a pH value of about 6-7, and the soil must be loose, breathable and rich in humus, and it is best not to use soil that contains too much alkaline.

3. Planting

When planting agarwood, first dig a planting hole in the soil, apply well-rotted organic fertilizer at the bottom, and then put the seedlings in, press while filling the soil to ensure that the root system is in full contact with the soil, and finally water it once permeable.

4. Semi-broken dry method

Saw a wound on the trunk of the agarwood tree more than 1-2m from the base, the depth is 1 3 or 1 2 thick of the trunk, along the same direction at different heights, saw several small holes, the spacing between the holes is 30-40cm, and after a long time, it can make incense on its own, and after a few years, you can take incense at the incision.

Summary. Honey fragrance tree, honey fragrance tree is more widely distributed, in Vietnam, Sri Lanka, India and other generations of places have been planted, but also an important production tree of high-grade agarwood, honey fragrance tree has higher requirements for the growth environment, generally in the middle of the mountains and hills is more suitable for growth, the demand for air flow is higher, the soil can not be too dry, the growth cycle is very long, generally after a hundred years to produce larger agarwood, and the agarwood produced by the honey incense tree has a characteristic is that it is more flake-like, and the resin line is shallow, relatively brittle and hard, The bad texture is generally used to make smoked materials, and the taste is relatively light, but the aroma is relatively strong after lighting.

Honey fragrance tree, honey fragrance tree is more widely distributed, in Vietnam, Sri Lanka, India and other generations of places have been planted, is also an important production tree of high-grade agarwood, honey fragrance tree has higher requirements for the growth environment, generally in the middle of the mountain and Qiu Li Lu Min Ling is more suitable to grow which branch is long, the demand for air flow is higher, the soil can not be too dry, the growth cycle is very long, it generally takes a hundred years to produce larger agarwood, and the agarwood produced by the honey fragrance tree has a characteristic is that it is more flake-like, and the resin line is shallow than the town, relatively crisp and hard, the texture is not good is generally used to make smoke, the smell is light, but the aroma is relatively strong after lighting.

The agarwood tree of the Xingzhou system is mainly an eagle tree, the wood is not as hard as the guanxiang, but the incense line is thicker than the guanxiang, the fragrance is also relatively strong, it is easy to produce a relatively large piece of spices, and the texture is clearer, which is very suitable for making hanging pendants or bracelets. Side-by-side emptiness.

1. Hole digging method: dig a hole in the agarwood trunk 1-3 meters from the ground, and then close it with mud. 2. Artificial inoculation:

Saw a few wounds on the sunny side of the agarwood, stuffed the incense-forming bacteria in, and wrapped them in plastic wrap. 3. Chemical incense: inject artificially cultured bacteria into the trunk.

4. Slashing method: cut a few knives at the base to make the wound secrete oil.

1. Hole digging method

Dig several square holes 2-3 cm deep, 3-4 cm wide and 3-4 cm high in the trunk of the agarwood tree 1-3 meters above the ground, and then close them with mud balls, and the xylem near the small holes gradually secrete resin, and after a few years you can form incense, which is a fast way to form incense.

2. Artificial inoculation:

On the sheltered and sunny side of the agarwood tree, open the incense door with a saw or chisel perpendicular to the direction of the trunk, the depth is 1 3 of the trunk, the width of the mouth is 1-2 cm, chisel off the broken wood in the middle, if the weather is dry, you can wet the wound with cold water, and then stuff the incense fungus with the incense door, and then wrap and seal it with plastic film.

3. Chemical incense

Needles are injected into the trunk of the agarwood tree, and artificially cultivated bacteria are injected into the branches to make them fragrant, but the incense produced by this method is of poor quality, and may contain slight toxicity, which is harmful to the human body, and there will be pinholes on the surface of the agarwood.

4. Slashing method

Usually choose 8-10 years old, trunk diameter of about 30 cm of agarwood tree, cut a few meters from the ground, the wound is 3-4 cm deep, after a period of time, the xylem near the wound will secrete oily substances, after a few years gradually turn black brown, this is agarwood.
