00:03 Here in Fonto Table, we will get to know different edible plants.
00:08 We will also learn how to plant, care for and nurture our own Bakuran.
00:16 From the rooftop of San Diego Elementary School, Quezon City, let's go plant some Alugbate!
00:24 [Music]
00:31 This is how you nurture an Alugbate.
00:34 You need to water it every morning and afternoon.
00:39 You need to water it daily.
00:41 Look at the holes, remove them like this.
00:44 [Music]
00:50 There, there. If you have a new Alugbate that you have intercropped,
00:54 water it so that the growth is good.
00:59 If you notice that I didn't clear the soil because this seed came from the tree.
01:06 I don't buy it because the purpose of this is to dry the seed.
01:13 When the seed dries, it grows easily.
01:16 Eight days after, this is it.
01:19 This is the seed that we planted.
01:24 But aside from the seed, we can also plant stems.
01:29 Remove the leaves.
01:32 Now, you can plant it in your Bakuran, in a small pot or in a pot.
01:40 This is how you plant it.
01:43 The soil needs to be about 6 inches deep so that the roots can grow.
01:50 After that, water it.
01:53 This is the result after 7 days.
01:56 This is the stem that I planted.
02:00 [Music]
02:02 We can intercropping the Alugbate.
02:05 Two pieces, plant it here.
02:08 There, there.
02:12 Just like the Alugbate.
02:14 [Music]
02:20 Now, when harvesting, you can see that it needs to be harvested.
02:26 If you don't harvest it, it will also sprout here.
02:29 It will have no good roots.
02:32 It will shrink.
02:34 [Music]
02:37 The good thing about Alugbate is that you don't have to take good care of it.
02:40 Just water it.
02:42 Water it in the morning and afternoon.
02:45 If you have pets, like ducks, you need to keep them away from it because it eats it.
02:53 Now, you know how to plant Alugbate.
02:57 You can cook some recipes easily, like stir-fried mung bean, stir-fried Alugbate, and many more.
