After 3-years I can see the agarwood trees bear the fruit. All years waiting is so worth. My husband was so happy..and we found them on ground. The fruit is green as guava fruit but smaller like wild tomatos (its small). The nut has 1 seed. I think so, coz I have just got one that opened its shell and I saw 1 seed. Is it?. Wait and see.
The agarwood trees grow . the leaves dropped due to dry season. and replaced back its new leaves.
This time we put fertilizers. sure they will grow more and fatty...hope so..after rain comming back..
The grass is keept to be shorter and sometimes non. Its good to have some more grass, but my eyes like to c my agarwood area is non-bushy, coz my brother's land at right is taken good care of his plantation. no grass at all but with old fruit trees. so okalylaa..kalau x mine is teruk juge..
The good thing about this agarwood tree I planted is, its is strong to fungus attack. The black fungus lives under the leaves. It can block the stomata, but seems to be very strong and survive. I can't afford to get them away. coz its a lot. But the younger leaves on the top gives them lives. Very strong species.
another good thing about this agarwood is...the trunk is healthy..seems no fungus or small animal get into it.
on the tree..I can see there ants living on the trees..It makes this tree safe from small parasits (small animals)
Padding up the tree ground with more soils make them to receives more air.

Bring all kids to make sure they know the things we do....and refresh their mind.... they said.." he..dah besar dah"
need to understand the trees...
have to make sure the pokok renek not climbing the gaharu ..and the most important is ..we won't come back to do the belaian in this plantation coz Ramadhan is comming and Hari Raya is comming. Hope by this visit could help the Gaharu to survive during our absense...
