    Mulch the surrounding ground of the Calamansi tree until they are big enough. Use rice hull with saw dust, it not only prevents weeds from creeping to the plant, it also traps moisture. It's very cheap, you can buy it in any nearby rice mill. Use cow dung to fertilize your plants. Invest in proper irrigation as well. Good luck Commader, i hope you find people who have the "malasakit" to care for your farm.

    Glad to see you're bouncing back on a more POSITIVE footing, Anselm. Good job! 👍🏻 ... A few ideas from the Comments = 1) FENCE: someone suggested putting up a fence to keep away goats etc. What do u think? ... 2) TARP or Mulch: this was suggested around each sampling -- to curtail the growth of weeds. Thoughts? ... 3) Security CAMERAS = when/if budget allows, is this a viable option? It should also give you a peace of mind. ...
    Thought I'd highlight these out to you, for easy reference. ... Take care, Anselm. Enjoy your Cateel visit!!

    Your vlog is very inspiring. We are also doing a rehab of an old calamansi farm. Our seedlings were planted right before the peak of el nino, so a few were affected.
    You are right, the grass, when not tended will impact the growth of the seedlings. It's also one the activities require the most effort aside from watering the calamansi plants (our plants are also in sloping area like yours).

    KD make sure you maintain the space around the calamansi- no weeds growing around it, cultivate once in a while using shovel to air out roots, so they grow faster and healthier. I noticed your property has different elevations; do you have an area in your property where there is a water source like creek, canal, stream or brook? That would be great! In case of dry, at least you have a place to get water to water your calamansi. You can even plant some fruit trees from seeds like mango, avocado, guayabano, etc., or some of your favorite vegetables like sweet potatoes as ground cover, corn, tomatoes, cooking banana, etc. just a small part just for your consumption. We had banana in our farm and underneath those bananas wild mushrooms grow. Maybe your wife can help you and check your farm from time to time if you are out of town...just a thoughts.🤔👍

    • @KumanderDaot
      @KumanderDaot  Год назад +4

      Yes there's a spring at the bottom! A great water source. That's what I realised now also that they need to be weeded and the soil loosened so they can breathe!

  • @alyssaponce454

    Try 1/4 Tbsp of puridan and 3 tbsp of basal at the hole before planting Calamansi seedlings to attain 100% survivability. Wag ma Daot sa pagtanim kumander hehehe

  • @ricardoleonardo7326
    @ricardoleonardo7326 3 месяца назад

    Hi KD! I suggest you do intercropping in between the calamansi trees. A low maintenance crop like kamote will be a good start. Calamansi takes a while before you can harvest so the profit from the other crops can help with the expenses of the farm 🙂

    You can use washed cement bags to stop the grass growing around. They are free on jobs sites you can add them to the plants slowly, it will also help with water retention. Rice hull is also free and a good mulch after you take the grass out. Good luck on your venture, calamansi is very fragile young but gets stronger as they grow 😀

    I managed a large printing operation in Manila for many years and the best advise I can give you is to show up every day and walk around the entire property every day. I know you still don’t think that level of attention is necessary to manage things but it is to be a leader. Three months ago you thought you could do otherwise and how did that work out?

    • @KumanderDaot
      @KumanderDaot  Год назад +2

      Ideally yes... The problem is that I would be unable to fulfil my other commitments if I was always at the farm. Given that they won't fruit to commercial levels for a couple more years, I would also struggle to have any income. So I have to compromise. As long as I am there often, even if it is not every day, it is the best I can do. And it is better than one visit in 3 months, which was a mistake on my part!

    We have a 5 acre calamansi farm, but it was a failure. Money lost. We have the same type of soil actually and our area is elevated as well. That's also the problem we've faced before. No proper care for the calamansi tree, grass growing around, etc. Lessons are learned the hardway. Like people, these plants needs tender love and care. Our area is still vacant as we think of its best use. In the meantime, study study study, so that next time it will be a success

    Weeds grows back faster when not uprooted. Cutting them will only make the roots stronger. Daily uprooting will surely be done if only they have patience to do it. And cover the soil with rice husks. Husks are plenty behind rice mills, and they are happy when someone collects them. It's very kind of you to treat your workers like family.
    Unfortunately some of them abuse these kind of relationship and they become lenient with their duties, especially when you're not present. Admit it or not. I'm a Filipino I know 😂😂😂. Having said that, I apply the strict disciplinary method of the Swiss management when I need workers in the Philippines. Lol I received a lot of name callings and course behind my back 😂😂😂

    Try to marcot calamansi. They're more resilient as far as ours had always been. Odette came and went and they're still alive and thriving and still bearing fruits the whole year round.

      My original batch were marcotted and these are marcotted and then bagged right away 🙂 The farm I bought from said the same, not a problem from Typhoon Pablo back in 2012 - they really grow quick too
