The process over a year(12 months) can be divided into three phase:

Resting phase(summer) : young Teak stops growing. In this phase because of the dry season, water deficiency made physiological action abnormal and matures (Dormancy phase.)

Active-growing phase.(Rainy) : Teak are growing fast because of a most suitable climate and soil moisture content. The increments in DBH. and volume, are 80% of total increment in the year.(start from early to late rainy season)
Slow-growing phase(winter) : Growth of Teak becomes slower until they enter in to dormant phase with falling leaves because of decreasing rainfall and temperature.
Teak grew fast during the first 5 years with the mean annual increments of 0.5-2.5 cm./DBH. and 0.5-2.3 m. in height respectively.
Teak is a highly positive tree species which needs adequate sunlight during every stage of its growth, or a light demanding tree species.
Teak is a tropical deciduous forest tree species. The species is a number of the family Verbena.
Growth of Teak is more vigorous in deep, well drained alluvium soil found a long the banks of rivers and also the foot of ridges.

TEAK PLANTATION

ECOLOGICAL REQUIREMENTS OF TEAK.
Teak can grow on a variety of soil. It develops best on well drained, deep and fertile soils, especially on volcanic substrate or on alluvial soils of various origins. The optimum soil pH is between 6.5 -7.5 The calcium magnesium and phosphorus content in the soil is another important factor and its deficiency results in stunted growth optimum rainfall for teak range between 1,250 and 3750 mm. the species requires a dry season of at least 4 months with less than 60 mm. precipitation(Kaosa-ard,1981)

The maximum and minimum temperatures are 43 degree and 13 degree respectively. Teak grows well in deep, well-drained alluvial soils, hard lateric and clayey soils are unsuitable.

Plantation sites should be select at lower altitudes,(<500 m.) on well drained soil and in areas with low incidence of strong wind.(typhoons). Slope is not exceeding 30 degree. Poor drained water logging and saline soil are unsuitable.

Remark :

Above an altitude of 700 m. teak may surfers from frost and wind damage, which retards growth significantly. Soils suitable for growing teak should be at least 60 cm. thick, loose and fertile, with surface stratum of more than 10 cm., a humus content of 20 percent. Land with sticky sub soil and pH of below 5.0 and slope are more than 30 degree should be a voided.

Soil dept >1.5 m./well drained soil.

A humus contents >5%

Slope 5-20 degree(good slope and valleys)

Mean temp. 19.4 degree.

Plant indicators bamboo mixed forests.

PLANTATION LAYOUT.
Plantation
Nature and ecological balance.
Block and road design and drainage system.
1 block = 32 ha.

Road width = 10 m. and do not longer than 400 m.

Fire break = 10 m.

THE SPACING.
The following planting design options are recommended for establishment a teak plantation.

Spacing 2×4 m. = 1,250 teak/ha.
Easiest and cheapest planting design to establish.
Suitable where mounting and drainage lines is to be taken.
Thinning must taken into account the spacing between final crop-trees. The final selection of vigorous, healthy trees with relatively even spacing.
Good weed control is essential to promote early growth and successful establishment.

THE FROM PRUNING.(2-3 YEARS)
De- budding and pruning of side branches is necessary in young plantations to improve the value of the basal timber.
A strong and straight leader(axis) needs to be selected and the others sprouts trimmed.
Sometimes planted stumps produce multiple shoots of which only the most vigorous one is kept.
Remark : equipment and tools for pruning.

Epicormic knife removal of stem epicormic branch with knife or by hand.

Pruning shear.

THE FERTILIZING. (1-3 YEARS.)
Do not fertilize newly-planted trees too soon. The application must be very light and broadcast evenly, but not against the stems of the trees. Apply to moist soil 1-2 month post-planting. Weeds are controlled prior to fertilizing.

As soon as the trees are established and start growing, fertilizer must be applied regular to the quantities given as below.

During 1ST
– Fist weeding(100 cm.) after planting 30 days. Application NPK 10 gm./tree(1 table spoonful) distance 20 cm. from Teak stem(3 points). Put in to soil deep 5-10 cm.(when soil has moisture content only) after rainy day.

– Second weeding (100 cm.) after planting 60 days-90 days, application NPK 30 gm/tree(2 table spoonful) distance 30-40 cm. from Teak stem(3 points). Put in to soil deep 5-10 cm.(when soil has moisture content only) after rainy day.

During 2nd year, NPK 50 gm/tree in 2 times, (when soil has moisture content only.) after weeding and soil working. Mulching and soil working are combined during the last weeding.
During 3rd year, NPK 100 gm/tree in 2 times(after rainy day) after weeding and soil working. Mulching and soil working are combined during the last weeding.
Remark : This is only a guideline. Correct fertilization can be only be applied according to the soil analysis for young trees and leaf analysis for matured trees.
