Moringa For Love has planted over 30,000 moringa trees in the past 9 years. In the coming days, we'll update this page to include how-to instructions to help your successfully grow your moringa trees!
It takes about a week for Moringa seeds to start sprouting. Once they have sprouted, plant the germinated seeds in a four-inch mud pot with green sprouts up the soil level. Moringa seedlings require some shades; do not place them in direct sunlights all day long. Click here to see some pictures of moringa seedlings.
Time to move to a bigger pot? Transplant by removing the bottom of the small pot then inserting the entire pot into a larger pot. Avoid damaging any roots during this process. We usually place it in a 5-gallon pot. Click here to see a picture of one moringa plant and here for several moringa plants.
- Leaves may turn yellow after transplant if the roots were cut or “in shock.” Click here for a photo sample.
- Leaves may turn yellow at the lower branches if you over-water.
- Add support if your moringa seedlings are tall enough. Click here for a photo sample.
- Got white spots on your moringa leaves? Ouch! Spider mites love moringa leaves. Fix it by mixing one-part vinegar and 4-part water (1:4 ratio). Spray the mixture both on top and at the bottom of your moringa leaves to bring your plant back to health. Click here for a sample video.
- Remove a few top branches to support sideway growth if your moringa seedlings are growing taller but not fuller.
Moringa For Love is working with Father John Kyebasuuta of St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church on building a Moringa Educational Farm in Monterey Park, California. The project covers Moringa seed germination, seedling growing, intensive cultivation, sapling transplantation, leaf powder production, and oil pressing. Father John is originality from Uganda, the pearl of Africa. He will bring all the knowledge he learned about Moringa to Uganda next year. Our goal is to use Moringa to reduce malnutrition, deforestation, and poverty in Africa.
在過去的9年中，辣木愛心基金會一共種植了30,000多棵辣木樹。在此與您分享如何成功地種植辣木樹的方法！
辣木種子開始發芽大約需要一周的時間。種子發芽後，將其移到一個四英寸的花盆中，舖上沙質土壤，讓綠色的小芽露出土外。辣木幼苗需要一些遮蔭；不要放在整天都是陽光直射的地方。點擊這裡查看辣木幼苗的圖片。準備換大盆子的時候，先剪去小盆的底部，然後將整個盆子放入大盆中完成移植。需要注意的是，在此過程中盡量避免傷及根部。我們通常建議使用5加侖的盆子即可。點擊此處查看辣木植物的圖片。
如果根部受到損傷，那麼葉片在移植後可能會變黃。點擊此處查看照片。
當澆水過多時，下端樹枝的葉子可能會變黃。
如果辣木苗的枝幹長得細又長的時候，請加木條支撐。點擊此處查看照片樣本。
發現辣木葉子上有白點嗎？那是一種叫蜘蛛蟎的害蟲。只要混合一份醋和四份水（1：4的比例）在辣木葉的上下部噴灑混合物，就可使植物恢復健康。點擊此處觀看範例視頻。
當辣木幼苗只長高但不飽滿，可去除一些頂部枝條以助其側向生長。
