Mofanana ndi zipatso zambiri zam'madera otentha, nkhuku (zomera zomwe zimatipatsa chokoleti) ndizokwanira m'nyumba. Kudera lakwawo, cacao imakula mvula yambiri, koma osati yotentha kwambiri, mvula yozizira komanso yotentha. Amakula mumtengo wochepa (pafupifupi mamita 20-25) mtengo wokhala ndi makungwa a gnarled ndipo nthawi zina amathyola thunthu. Masamba ndi oblongera, otumbululuka, komanso osangalatsa kwambiri.
Chimene anthu ambiri amawakonda ndi mbewu zambewu, zomwe zimachitika mwachibadwa pamtengo pamene mitengo yaing'ono ili pafupi zaka zinayi. Mbeuyi imakhala yotsekedwa ndi kukula kwa dzanja lachikulire. Mukagawanila chipatso chowombera, mudzapeza mbeu zambiri za khola zomwe zimapezeka mkati mwa thupi loyera. Mbewu, ndithudi, zimakhala za ufa wa cacao, omwe ndi maziko a chokoleti ndi zinthu zambiri zokoma.
Mankhwala a cacao okhwima nthawi zambiri amawomba malalanje ndipo amatenga pafupifupi miyezi isanu kuti akhwime pamtengo. Kaya mumakhala ndi zowawa za mtundu wa koco kuchokera mumtundu wanu, zimadalira ngati muli ndi kafukufuku kapena ayi. Pali mitengo ya cacao yokhwimitsa, yomwe imapezeka m'madera ozungulira kumpoto kwa United States, koma kwa alimi ambiri akumidzi, iwo ndi abwino kwambiri.
Mavuto Okula
- Kuwala: Monga mtengo kapena understory chomera, iwo amachita bwino ndi dzuwa lopsa. Cacao sayenera kuwonekera poyera, masana dzuwa, chifukwa lidzatentha masamba.
- Madzi: Nthawi zonse madzi m'nyengo yokula komanso kutentha kwambiri (pafupifupi 70 peresenti). Kutentha kwakukulu ndizovuta kwambiri kukomana chifukwa cha zomera izi ndi chifukwa chake alimi ambiri akumidzi amakumana nawo.
- Feteleza: Dyetsani mlungu uliwonse ndi ofooka fetereza feteleza omwe akuphatikizapo micronutrients. Iwo ndi odyetsa olemera, makamaka pa nyengo yokula.
- Dothi: Nthaka yowala bwino, yomwe imatulutsa mwamphamvu imakhala yabwino. Madzi abwino ndi ofunikira kwambiri.
Kufalitsa
Kufalitsa kumachitika mwa mbewu. Chovuta kwa anthu ambiri, ndithudi, ndi kupeza mbewu zabwino za khola. Ndawawonapo iwo akugulitsa pa malo osungiramo zakudya ndikuwonetsa, koma amapezeka pa intaneti. Ngati n'kotheka, ndibwino kugula nyemba zatsopano ngati mbewu zowuma komanso zokolola zakale sizingatheke. Nthawi zina mumapezekanso mbande za kakao. Mbande ziyenera kuwonetseredwa ndi dzuwa lochepa kusiyana ndi chomera chokhwimitsa ndipo zingathe kuphuka mumthunzi kwa miyezi isanu ndi umodzi yoyambirira kufikira chaka. Akayamba kukula mofulumira, awatsogolere ku dzuwa.
Kubwereza
Bwerezani ngati n'kofunika, makamaka kumayambiriro kwa nyengo yokula. Mukamabwezeretsanso, samalani kuti musasokoneze mizu yosafunikira ndikupatsa chomera madzi ambiri ndi chinyezi.
Zosiyanasiyana
Nkhumba ya Theobroma ndi imodzi mwa zomera zofunika kwambiri kulima lero (makamaka ngati mukufuna chokoleti). Komabe pali zinazake zomwe nthawi zina zimagwiritsidwa ntchito. Theobroma grandiflorum amagwiritsidwa ntchito popanga chokoleti cha rainforest chotchedwa cupulate, ndipo malinga ndi Skyfield Tropical, ena opanga chokoleti amagwiritsa ntchito Theobroma bicolor mu kusakaniza kwawo.
Ngakhale kuti mtundu wa T. cacao ndiwo mtundu waukulu, alimi padziko lonse lapansi agwira ntchito kuti adziwe mitengo yawo mothandizidwa ndi tizilombo ting'onoting'ono ndi zozizira (osati mosiyana, kunena kuti, cabelet mphesa).
Malangizo a Wakukula
Cacao si chomera chosavuta makamaka. Ikhoza kulekerera nthawi yayitali ya kutentha pansi pa 60 F, koma siidzakula ndipo kukula sikudzatha. Kutentha kwa nthawi yaitali pansi pa 50 F kudzawonetsa kufa. Zimapindulitsa kwambiri mutakula mumtundu wake, ndipo ndi yopapatiza, gulu lopsa ndi dzuwa, kutentha kwambiri, chakudya chochuluka, madzi otentha komanso kutentha. Ngati mungathe kupereka izi, mbeu yanu iyenera kukhala yabwino.
Ngati mwayamba kupeza mbewu kuchokera ku chomera chanu, mwinamwake mudzafunikira zomera ziwiri. Maluwa a Cacao ali ndi ziwalo zazimuna ndi zazikazi, koma zomera za cacao sizingathe kudzamera, kotero chomera choyenera chiyenera kumera.
Anthu ambiri omwe amalima khola mumkati, sakhala akuyang'ana kupanga pod ndi kumalima chomera ngati chinthu chachilendo ndi zovuta. Cacao imakhala yotetezeka kwa mealybugs ndi nsabwe za m'masamba.
