2yrs and it is very far from fruiting. Why not buy hybrid ?

they are hybrid and I am expecting them start producing by 4 years time.

I travelled resently and I took pictures of some hybrid coconuts I saw in my community.

Please watch one of my trial coconut planted in February 2022 and it has started bringing flowers (copra) in October 2025. Also, see attached pictures for reference and check threads for confirmation. If you like what we are doing, please follow us and subscribe to our YouTube channel. God bless you!

This is what you will do if you don't want your dwarf coconuts to grow taller, that you can't reach them again. Please see the video below and follow us on YouTube.

[quote author=umuna post=133658839][/quote]I co-ask this. Interested as am also considering buying land at Ogun state for farming purpose.

But then, saw someone comment here that you can’t have a successful small scale farm except you are directly engaged and physically involved. My plan is to outsource all physical effort and visit occasionally - particularly given that plantain, banana and Coconut does not require attention daily.

Yes you can do that by employing workers and paying for their housing and food. But once the plantain/ bananas starts producing and ready for harvest, you will need to be visiting your farm every 3 weeks to avoid story that touches.

Can i get such suckers for you?

umuna:
Yes I do have them, but not in large quantities. I get you 30 suckers whenever you are ready. Also during fruiting at first, they might produce only one bunch, but subsequently, it will start producing double because by then, more suckers are at the mother base.

I can't understand you please.
