Correctly planting Coffee Tree Coffee Tree growth process Map

One of the characteristics of a coffee tree is that its fruit can bear fruit several times a year, and another is that flowers and fruits coexist at different stages of ripening. If the fruit is too ripe, the beans in it will rot. If the beans are not ripe, the beans will not ripen by themselves. So bean pickers often go through the same tree several times to look for ripe fruit, but they only get two pounds of coffee beans back and forth several times, usually the average yield of a tree is 2 pounds a year.

Coffee farmers who produce low-grade coffee beans like to use labor-saving methods to harvest beans, but in this way, the quality is not pure, reducing the taste of coffee and lowering the grade of coffee. The way to pick coffee beans in some parts of Africa is to shake the coffee tree, shake the fruit to the ground, and pick it up from the ground before the fruit rotts. Low-grade coffee is produced in most parts of Brazil, where coffee is picked by picking all the leaves, flowers, ripe and green fruit from the branches at once, and it takes two years for the damaged coffee trees to recover.

The coffee tree has delicate white flowers that smell like oranges and jasmine. Sometimes it is just a tree blooming alone, like a young bride, sometimes the whole coffee garden is in full bloom, it looks like a sea of white flowers, beautiful and intoxicating. But the florescence is fleeting. Within two or three days, the petals dispersed with the wind, leaving only the remaining fragrance spinning in the air.

Before long, small fruits appear in piles, first green, then yellow, then red or crimson, and can be picked almost black. In Jamaica, bats are the first to know whether the fruit is ripe or not. by sucking coffee pulp at night, they are telling people that the fruit is ripe and ready to be picked. The oval fruit gathers tightly around the branches, with slender, smooth dark green toothed leaves on both sides of the branches. The leaves on the sunny side are harder, the back is softer, the edges are fan-shaped, and the branches are opposite from the trunk.

Coffee trees are usually bred in nurseries, grow into seedlings, and then moved to coffee plantations a year later, in full compliance with the original Arab method of planting and cultivating coffee trees. In the first four or five years of its growth, the coffee tree will continue to take root downward, develop its trunk upward, and develop into an umbrella shape so that it can bear rich fruit in the future.
