Menanam kacang panjang di pot

Summary

In this video, the process of growing long beans (kacang panjang) in a pot is explained step-by-step. It covers the initial seed germination using a wet tissue method, preparing the planting media with a mix of compost, soil, and other materials, and transferring the sprouted seeds into pots. The video also guides viewers on proper watering, fertilizing with NPK, and pest control. After a few weeks, the plants start flowering and producing beans, with harvesting tips provided. The video concludes with tips on supporting the plants with bamboo stakes and encourages viewers to try growing their own long beans at home.

Takeaways

• 😀 Start by germinating kacang panjang seeds in a jar with tissue and water for 2 days.
• 😀 Prepare the planting medium using a mix of soil, compost, raw husk, and charcoal husk in a 2:1:1:1 ratio.
• 😀 Use a pot (like a used gallon container) with a minimum size of 40 cm, ensuring it receives direct sunlight.
• 😀 Once seeds have germinated, plant them in prepared soil and water lightly to ensure proper growth.
• 😀 Keep the soil moist and provide regular watering to encourage seedling growth.
• 😀 Apply NPK 16-16-16 fertilizer on the 8th day, diluted in water, to support plant health and growth.
• 😀 Use pesticides to control pests like leaf curl and caterpillars by diluting and spraying them on the plants once a week.
• 😀 Support climbing plants by setting up bamboo poles, with longer poles for the main structure and shorter poles for cross-support.
• 😀 After 20-30 days, the plants will begin to climb and bloom, signaling the start of fruiting.
• 😀 Harvest the larger, mature beans while leaving the smaller ones for future harvests, continuing this process every 5 days.
• 😀 Ensure continuous growth by regularly fertilizing, watering, and managing pests for optimal bean production.

Q & A

What is the first step in planting long beans in pots?

The first step is to soak the long bean seeds in a jar with damp tissue paper to encourage germination.

What is the purpose of using a jar with tissue paper for seed germination?

The jar with damp tissue paper helps to identify which seeds will germinate and which will not, by allowing them to sprout before planting them in the soil.

What soil mixture is recommended for planting long beans?

The recommended soil mixture consists of 2 parts soil, 1 part compost, 1 part raw rice husk, and 1 part charcoal husk.

Can regular plastic pots be used for planting long beans?

Yes, plastic pots can be used, but it's important that they are at least 40 cm in diameter to provide enough space for the plant's roots.

How do you plant the sprouted long bean seeds into the soil?

After the seeds sprout, you create small holes in the soil and carefully place the sprouted seeds into the holes, then cover them lightly with soil.

How much water should be given to the plants after planting the seeds?

After planting, water the seeds lightly to ensure the soil is moist but not too wet.

When should NPK fertilizer be applied to the long beans?

NPK fertilizer should be applied 8 days after planting to help boost the growth of the plants.

What should be done if the plants face pest problems like leaf curling or caterpillars?

If pests like leaf curl or caterpillars are observed, a pesticide like Pastak should be used, diluted at a ratio of 1 ml per 1 liter of water, and applied to the plants.

When should the plants be provided with a trellis for climbing?

A trellis should be installed 10 days after planting when the plants begin to grow and need support for climbing.

How do you harvest the long beans?

Long beans should be harvested when they are large and mature, leaving smaller ones to grow for the next harvest.
