Tree saplings for shade

Since summer is very harsh wanted to bring more shade for coconut trees and mango trees. For this identified few local trees, seeds of this are collected and planning to make seedlings of these. Bought 150 plastic cups from Thrissur, each one costed 8 rupees. Put first dried leaves and then soil, and then seeds were put, watering it in the morning and evening.

Currently two types of trees, one is locally called, Manja konna, this is ever green and provides good shade. Collected seeds from farm and one side is slightly cut using nail cutter so that water can enter it soak it and germinate fast.

Second one is a type of Mandaram, this is collected on the way to farm.
