• Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic content.
• Climate: Warm, tropical climate.

Planting & Spacing

Care

• Watering: Water when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry; maintain consistent moisture near the root zone.
• Fertilizer: Organic fertilizer 2-3 times a year, especially before the flowering season.
• Pruning: Remove damaged or crossing branches; prune growth below the graft union.

Fruiting & Harvest

A grafted Chikoo typically fruits in 3-4 years, then yields fruit twice a year.
