Tin fruit is a fruit that comes from Arab countries, then this fruit spread to many European countries, Asia and Australia. The tin tree (Ficus carica), figs or figs is a tree that is famous as the sacred fruit of the paradise garden. This nickname is obtained by the fruit because it is mentioned in the al-quran. Even so the price of tin is also relatively cheap.

Tin fruit also has many benefits and nutrients when consumed. Because of that many people are using fruits to become drugs.

In Indonesia, the tin is pretty hard to find. But many people are looking for it. So the fruit in Indonesia can be used as land income or you can use it yourself.

There are several ways to cultivate these fruits, one of which is by grafting the tin tree. there are several steps that must be done for the cultivation of fruits by grafting. Here are the steps you should take to transplant the tin tree:

1. First, choose a tin tree that stems young and green, because the young and green will grow faster and will produce more fruit.

2. Prepare transparent plastic and also pure cocopeat.

3. Then swat is the tin tree you want to transplant with a cocopeat that has been wrapped with transparent plastic.

4. The length of the graft is 10 to 15 cm only, try not more.

5. Tie the graft media at the base and the end using a raffia rope.

6. Flush the graft medium every day, watering is done through the cracks that have been prepared before.

7. When it's 30 to 45 days the graft will start to have many peranakans, that means the graft is ready to cut and transferred to the normal medium.

How to Cultivate Tin Fruit by How to Cut the Stem

Another way to cultivate the fruit is by way of stem cuttings. This method is not much different from the way grafting. his way as follows:

1. Cut the stems or branches of older trees. Characteristics are trees that already have brown or purple skin with a stem size of 10 to 15 cm.

2. The stems in the cuttings are cut inclined.

3. After the cuttings are ready, Then seedlings the seedlings in the nursery that you have given sand or pure cocopeat in it.

4. Former cuts on the top of the tin tree used as cuttings must be covered with wax. The purpose of coating the wax on the screws of a tin tree is to prevent decay from occurring.

5. Flush the cutted tin tree every day to keep the soil moist.

6. After 45 days, tin tree cuttings already have many stems. This means that the tin tree is ready to be moved to a new land or pot.


The seeds of tin plants, whether cuttings or cuttings are better planted in pots. To plant a tin tree in pots you need a mixture of soil, cocopeat, goat waste and raw husk with a ratio of 1: 1. 8. This tin tree also has a special care, because this plant comes from a country with hot weather.

How To Take Care Of The Tin Tree

Tin fruit has the same characteristics as the fruits that grow in Arab countries, such as olives and dates (selling dates). These plants are the kind of plants that require more sunlight. Therefore, the tin fruit is more difficult to bear fruit in a country that has a tropical climate like Indonesia. Therefore the tin tree must also have the same care with the country of origin. Treatment for the tin tree is as follows.

  • Sprinkling

Tin trees usually live in hot areas, so do not need to water them every day. Watering is done regularly, like 4 days. And during the rainy season the tree does not need to be flushed at all. The good, the tin is planted in summer so it is easier to bear fruit.

  • Sunlight

Because in the Arab country is very hot, so tin trees need a lot of sunlight. Therefore, do not let something block out the sunlight to illuminate this tree. If sunlight is not given as needed, the tree will be more difficult to grow and bear fruit.

  • Fertilization

Fertilization of the tin trees at the beginning of the planting requires only leaf manure with sufficient dose. After the age of 2 years, then tin trees are given manure. The goal is that the leaves of the tin tree is not easy to fall out and to accelerate fertilization.

  • Pests and Diseases

Cut out the leaves that have dried and yellowed. This is usually due to viruses in the leaves, so to prevent contagious to other leaves, the leaves that have yellowing should be cut. If not cut it is possible all the leaves will come yellowing and the tree can not do metamoforsis.

Also be aware of the existence of stem borer pests. This pest can make the tree trunks become porous and easily broken. Prevention for these pests is by injecting plant medicine on the stem. Well, add auxiliary nutrients in the form of root and stem incentive.
