hole and line the bottom with manure or compost. Planting at 8 x 8 or 7x7 or 6x6 meters .
Date palms do not like excessively wet or damp areas.
Care and Maintenance – Date palms should
be watered approximately every 5-7 days, or according to the dampness of soil. Quality date palms should be given sufficient
water at a consistent rate.
Fertilizer – The use of manure will result in 1-2 kilograms of produce,
twice a year, per tree; together with proper maintenance of soil and eradication of weeds surrounding each plant.
Trimming
– Aged leaves of date palms tend to get dry and it is recommended that they are cut off to aid in the maintenance of
plants, keeping it clean and reducing any possible problems that may arise from pests and insects, although date palms generally
have very few problems with pests.

Pollination
In
collecting male pollen, male plants flower before female plants and can be noticed when the blossom or spedix begins to protrude.
When the blossom breaks open, within will be the flower with jagged petals. Cover the flower with a plastic bag and shake,
the pollen will disperse inside the bag. Remove excess air within the bag, close and seal the bag and refrigerate.
With
the female pollen, the female plants flower much like the male plant except that the flower of the female plant will contain
a cluster of round seeds. When the blossom breaks, take the refrigerated male pollen to combine together. In pollination,
put approximately 1/3 teaspoons of male pollen in a plastic bag; shake the bag so that the pollen is adrift within the bag.
Cover the flower containing the female pollen with the bag and shake again so that the male and female pollens combine together.
The process should be repeated the following 2 days, using less pollen for the 2nd and 3rd day.
The best time for pollinating is around 10.00 am when the air is neither too humid nor too hot.
