1. Introduction

  • Species Info: The East Coast Tall variety of coconut palm tree (Cocos nucifera) is a popular cultivar native to the eastern coast of India. It is known for its high yield, large-sized coconuts, and strong resistance to pests and diseases.

2. Plantation

  • Site Selection: Choose a location with well-draining soil, full sun exposure, and protection from strong winds.
  • Planting Time: Plant during the rainy season for optimal growth.
  • Spacing: Allow 7.5-10 meters (25-33 feet) between each tree to ensure adequate space for growth.

3. Growing

  • Soil: East Coast Tall palms prefer sandy or loamy soils with good drainage and a pH between 5.5 and 7.0.
  • Watering: Water frequently during the first few months, then reduce to weekly deep watering once established.
  • Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer with micronutrients every 3-4 months for optimal growth.

4. Care

  • Pruning: Remove dead or damaged fronds and fruit stalks annually to maintain tree health and appearance.
  • Pest and Disease Management: Monitor for pests such as mealybugs, scale insects, and red palm weevils, and treat as necessary. Inspect trees for fungal or bacterial infections, and apply appropriate treatments.

5. Harvesting

  • When to Harvest: Coconuts are ready to harvest once they reach maturity, typically around 11-12 months after the appearance of the inflorescence.
  • Harvesting Method: Use a long pole with a hooked knife or a specialized coconut picking tool to harvest coconuts from the tree.
