Effective Durian Thinning Techniques in the Summer Season with BACONCO

Discover the best practices for promoting durian shoot growth during the dry season using BACONCO's specialized products – supporting healthy root development, boosting shoot growth, and protecting plants from extreme heat.

Why Is Proper Shoot Management Crucial for Durian in the Dry Season?

Extended dry seasons can severely affect crop performance, especially for durian – a high-value fruit tree that is highly sensitive to environmental changes. In key growing regions such as the Central Highlands, Central Vietnam, and the Mekong Delta, farmers often struggle with weak roots, delayed sprouting, yellowing leaves, and low fruit set rates.

That’s why applying the right shoot growth technique during the dry season is essential to help durian trees overcome drought stress and build a strong foundation for the upcoming harvest. BACONCO's comprehensive product line provides a complete solution to support root recovery, accelerate shoot development, and promote healthy foliage.

Solid Foundation: Stimulate Root Growth and Retain Moisture

Durian roots are the core of water and nutrient absorption. During dry spells, soil can become compacted, lose moisture, and lack beneficial microbes, leading to root damage and overall plant stress.

BACONCO’s Solutions:

• Use ANIMA or ORGANICONCO Organic Fertilizers:
  Improves soil texture, increases pH levels, enhances moisture retention, and adds long-lasting organic matter.
• Combine with COBIO ROOT Microbial Solution:
  Delivers beneficial microbes, stimulates new root growth, enhances soil structure, and boosts plant immunity.

After 7–10 days of application, you’ll begin to see clear root recovery — laying a strong foundation for healthy shoot development in the next growth phase.

Boost Shoot Growth: Spray SUPERTAN XANH Foliar Fertilizer

Once the root system is revitalized, new shoots will start to emerge. However, if nutrition is insufficient or weather conditions are harsh, shoots may appear weak, uneven, and vulnerable to pests, affecting overall productivity.

BACONCO’s Solutions:

• Apply SUPERTAN XANH – a chlorine-free foliar fertilizer:
  • Stimulates even shoot growth across the plant
  • Enhances leaf thickness, greenness, and glossiness
  • Improves photosynthesis and light absorption under harsh sunlight
  • Strengthens plant resistance and reduces pest attacks on tender shoots

Healthy and uniform shoots help ensure a productive flowering and fruiting cycle while also reducing care and maintenance efforts.

Nourish Shoots and Provide Complete Nutrition

While triggering shoot growth is essential, sustaining strong shoots and promoting wide, durable canopy development is the key to boosting durian fruit yield and quality. Without proper nutrition during this stage, shoots may die back, and leaves may remain small and fragile, negatively impacting flower formation.

BACONCO’s Solutions:

• Use BASEOS NPK 20-10-10+6S+0.045B (Stork Brand):
  • Provides balanced macronutrients: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium
  • Contains Sulfur (S) and Boron (B) for stronger shoots and fuller canopies
  • Supports flower bud differentiation for future harvests
  • Includes soil-improving microbes for long-term nutrient stability and disease prevention

When durian trees receive complete nourishment, the canopy develops evenly, boosting photosynthesis, reducing pest infestations, and helping trees remain vigorous throughout the dry season.
