Nursery Plant Pots from Coconut Coir
Plants grow faster in pots made of coconut husk with coconut dust than in soil. For example,
nursery plants like:
1. Asparagus springerie – grown in coconut husk with equal amounts of dust and swine
marine had more cuttings than those planted in rice field with swine manure.
2. Anthurium – more flowers per plant.
3. Dracaena fragrans (leafy plant) – increased roots
4. Mussaendes – longer roots (with spagnum moss and coconut) during marcotting.
5. Amherstia nobilis – faster marcotting even without the use of growth hormones.

Lumber from Coconut Tree
Studies showed that wood from matured coconut trees when cut into 50 mm thick can be
used for housing and furniture materials.
To ensure that the wood does not get deformed, the lower part of the tree is cut and allowed
to dry in the air.
During summer, drying takes about 11-14 weeks and 16-17 weeks on rainy days.

MURANG PAGKUKUNAN NG SUKA
Nasubukan ng isang mananaliksik na estudyante ng Panabo Provincial High School na si Dean Cabote noon pang 1977, na ang tangkay ng dahon ng niyog ay maaari ding pagkunan ng suka. Ito’y dahil kung paanong ang nakatikom na bulaklak ng niyog ay nakukunan ng tuba dahil sa taglay niyang sustansya, gayon ding sustansya ang dumadaloy sa tangkay ng iisang puno. Ang mga ibang napagkukunan ng suka tulad ng mga prutas na matatamis ay mahal na di hamak, kung ihahambing dito.
