Dear Friends,
Could you advice, if it is required to add salt ( common salt) to
coconut trees annually. I see people do it and have been advised to do
so . Since we grow things organically, won't the salt kill the soil
microbes?
If it is acceptable and required, what is the quantity and frequency
of adding salt.

Thank you
Warm regards
Delson Roche.

I think using sea solids is better than salt.

Sea solids without salt has all the minerals required withaout the negative effects of salt.

Is interesting your idea.

If you analise this sea solid you will now how plant nutrient you ofert to your coconut.

We have a lot of manuals about coconut nutrition to diferent climatic conditions and others, you must need now your conditions, your soil and all possibilities of fertlizers in your region.

I studie coconut nutrition in Rio de Janeiro - Brasil, here we have diferent kinds of soils, oxisoil to neosoil.

If you need you can contact me

Kind regards

In situations far from the coast coconut can be deficient in chlorine. This was shown in places in the Philippines. Adding salt (NaCl) might be doing good by supplying chlorine. Salitre is the same as (English) salt peter – NaNO3 – sodium nitrate. It would not help with chlorine deficiency but the nitrogen could be good for the palms.
