After a coconut is successfully planted, it takes some weeks before it can start to germinate again. The best coconut planting method is by nurturing it using a sack or planting the coconut seed nearby the house and when it germinate with leaves, it can then be transplanted to another farmland location where the coconut will stay and grow to reach harvesting stage. When a coconut is planted in another direction for continuous growth, it usually spend time before the coconut which was removed from the former planted environment could gain new roots into the soil thereby continuous growth.
During the stage where a coconut was transplanted to another farm location, for the weeks the coconut will spend inside the soil before it'll start back to gain new roots for continuous growth, the farmer must not cover the whole transplanted coconut stems and leaves for easy growth. If by mistake a transplanted coconut stems or leaves is covered with soil, the water that the farmer will be pouring to help for fast germination will not allow the coconut to germinate by making the leaf to turn yellow.
I usually pour goat dump to the surface soil of the transplanted coconut. This usually help to make the soil fertile for the coconut. When I pour water to the transplanted coconut the water will first reach the goat dump before entering the soil with manure.
They're so many ways we can actually protect and make our coconut to germinate. Many farmers forget that it's not only planting a coconut in fertilized environment that matters but protecting it from the germination stage matters a lot.
Goat are usually very friendly to newly transplanted coconut because the stems or leaves are usually very soft for goat chewing. So if a newly transplanted coconut is not protected goat will eat it thereby making the coconut not to germinate and even die. The best I do is to find some materials to cover the newly transplanted coconut so that goat will not have the feed after it. It's usually very important that even when trying to protect a newly transplanted coconut from goat, there should be a provision to enable the plant to be receiving sunlight.
A cut I pieces a bag to protect a newly transplanted coconut. Using a bag usually helps sunlight to even enter the coconut through the bag because it has openings only for sunlight but not for flys or anything big. I usually place wood to four places covering the newly transplanted coconut before I will use a rope on it to hold the bag. I also used a stone to support the bag so that goat will not pull the bags off from the woods.
