6. 4. You can demand for a good price in selling good quality plants. 1. You are assured that the plants will grow fast, strong, and healthy. 2. There is less mortality or death of plants because pests and diseases will be controlled. 3. More plants can be grown and harvested. 5. There is more profit gained for more harvest and your plants are of the best kind.

8. Definition of Terms EQUIPMENT supplies or tools needed for a purpose PROPAGATION act or action of propagating; to cause to continue or increase TOOLS it is a handheld device that aids in accomplishing a task.

9. The success of plant propagation does not only depend on the skills of the person doing it, nor the quality of the plant being planted but also with the materials or tools that you are using in the propagating process. Tools and equipment play a vital role in plant propagation using systematic process. The availability of the appropriate tools and equipment makes the work easier, faster and helps in the proper operation of the different procedures in plant propagation.

10. Tools and Equipment in Plant Propagation include the following:

11. include the following:

12. HOE a tool used in digging and loosening hard, dry soil. It has a thin blade across the end of a long handle.

13. RAKE a long-handled tool having a bar at one end with teeth in. It is used for smoothening the soil and gathering loose leaves, hay, or straw.

14. TROWEL a tool with a curved blade used for loosening the ground and taking up small plants.

15. AXE a tool with a flat, sharp blade fastened to a handle used for cutting trunk of trees and their branches.

16. CROWBAR a straight, heavy iron bar pointed at one end, about 4 feet in length, used for digging holes and for planting seeds.

17. BOLO a tool with a wooden or metal handle in which a long blade is attached. It is used for cutting tall grasses and branches of trees.

18. SHOVEL a broad scoop attached to a handle. It is used to dig, lift, and throw loose matter.

19. FORK a tool resembling a table fork but much bigger in size. It is used in digging and preparing the soil for the plants.

20. WATER SPRINKLER a can or plastic with a spout to sprinkle water on the plants. Plants should be watered everyday to make them grow healthier.

21. WHEELBARROW used to transfer soil plants and other materials from one place to another.

22. HOSE used for watering seedlings arranged in mass.

23. SPRAYER used for spraying chemicals to eliminate plant seeds.

24. WEIGHING SCALE for weighing plants, seeds, and fertilizers.

25. PIECES OF WOOD OR BAMBOO used as fences of seed boxes and plots to protect plants from being destroyed by animals.

26. PRUNING SHEARS used for cutting small branches including the unnecessary branches.

27. GARDEN GLOVES used while working in the garden, made of strong rubber to protect from thorns and withstand punctures

29. Sexual Propagation Propagation by seed or spores. The plants will become fertilized and produce the seed that will grow into a new plant with characteristics of both parent plants. Because of the traits given by the parent plants, sexual propagation offers these advantages: 1. the only method when creating new varieties or cultivars, 2. the easiest and cheapest way of growing plants: 3. a way of getting rid of diseases and 4. some plants are only able to be produced via seed Asexual Propagation Asexual Propagation is a process of regenerating a new plant by taking a part of another plant to develop. This results to have a new plant that in identical to its parent plant. 2 TYPES OF PROPAGATION

30. Different Types of Asexual Propagation Cutting A part of a single or mother plant is cut to be planted as cutting for purpose of multiply its variety. Example of fruit- bearing tree that can be planted by cutting in Siniguelas

31. method that involves inserting a scion into a stock so that they will form a union and grow together. Materials: Grafting knife Pruning Shears Grafting wax Stock Scion Different Types of Asexual Propagation Grafting

32. involves grafting seedlings, rooted cuttings or basal suckers on to established trees to repair physical or animal damage to the trunk. The grafted seedlings replace the root system lost due to the damage. Different Types of Asexual Propagation Inarching

33. process of transferring the lateral bud taken from the scion to the stock of the same family. Materials: Budding knife Grafting wax Buddy tape Different Types of Asexual Propagation Budding

34. a technique of plant propagation where the new plant remains at least partially attached to the mother plant while forming new roots and can occur naturally through modified stem structures Different Types of Asexual Propagation Layering

35. 6 types of Layering includes the following:

36. air Layering/marcotting Stimulates the stem or branch of a mother plant to develop roots while still connected to it Materials: Knife or cutter Plastic (transparent) Strau seil or coco husk

37. Simple Layering one of the easiest methods of propagating new plants. Unlike cuttings, which have to survive on their own, layered shoots are encouraged to form roots while still attached to the parent plant.

38. tip Layering the propagation of plants by bending a stem to the ground and covering the tip with soil so that roots and new shoots may develop.

39. serpentine Layering looping the stems of climbers in and out of the soil to encourage roots to form at several points along the same stem. The technique for each buried section is very similar to simple layering. Thin-stemmed climbers need not be wounded.

40. trench Layering the choice for those plants that have strong apical dominance and do not form many shoots after an initial cutback. A trench layer is initiated by placing new plants at an angle in the stool bed. Once new plants are established they are laid over and held in place with a wire or peg.

41. mound or stool Layering is accomplished by cutting back the stems of the plant to about 1 inch above the ground during its dormant season and completely covering the remaining shortened stems with soil.

42. 1 2 LESSON 4 HEALTHY AND SAFETY MEASURES IN PROPAGATING FRUIT-BEARING TREES 3 4

43. 1. Have the right tools for planting trees and fruits trees. 2. Use the right tool for the right purpose. This insures efficiency of work and safety for the user. 3. Read labels of pesticides and insecticides carefully before using. Follow instructions as indicated. 4. Wear the proper attire when planting. Loose, comfortable, and absorbent clothing gives freedom of movement and feeling of comfort and freshness. Wearing a hat protects you from the extreme heat of the sun. Wear mask when spraying insecticides. 5. Use organic fertilizer instead of those commercial ones. It is economical and safer to use. Commercial fertilizer when used in excess can poison the soil.

44. 6. Get rid of insects and pests that invade the tree or seedlings. Destroy them right away before they multiply and cause damage to the tree. Aphids, plant hoppers, leaf rollers, webworms, and ladybugs are some common insects that feed on plants. 7. One preventive measure to avoid tree infections caused by insects is to build a fire and allow smoke to penetrate the leaves of the tree. 8. Have a place for everything. Tools, equipment, pesticides, fertilizers, compost should be placed where they should be. They should also be kept away from the reach of children. 9. Before embarking on tree planting, read books and magazines, consult a plant expert. This will equip you with the needed information on how to deal with the different phases of gardening and tree planting.
