DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Sapodilla trees require bright, direct sunlight and thrive in warm, humid conditions. They prefer moderate temperatures and should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. These trees are relatively easy to care for but do require some attention to ensure optimal growth.
Oogst
Manilkara zapota, commonly known as sapodilla, is typically harvested when the fruit is fully mature but still firm. This usually occurs about 6 to 8 months after flowering. The fruit should be picked by hand, using a gentle twisting motion to avoid damaging the tree or the fruit. It is important to handle the fruit carefully to prevent bruising. After harvesting, the fruit should be allowed to ripen at room temperature until it becomes soft and the skin turns a light brown color. Proper timing and handling are crucial to ensure the best flavor and texture of the sapodilla.
Bodem
Sapodilla trees prefer well-draining loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be kept evenly moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is recommended for sapodilla trees. Fertilize the tree every few months during the growing season to ensure it receives the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
Verpotten
Sapodilla trees can be repotted when they outgrow their current container. It is best to repot during the early spring before the growing season begins. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix.
Voortplanting
Sapodilla trees can be propagated through seeds, grafting, or air layering. Seed propagation is the most common method, but grafting ensures the new plant retains the characteristics of the parent tree. Propagation is best done during the warm months.
Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and health of the sapodilla tree. Prune during the dormant season to remove dead or diseased branches and to shape the tree. Regular pruning helps improve air circulation and light penetration.
Toxiciteit
Sapodilla is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the seeds should not be consumed as they can be a choking hazard.
Aanvullend
Sapodilla trees are relatively pest-resistant but can be susceptible to scale insects and spider mites. Regular monitoring and appropriate pest control measures can help keep the tree healthy.
