  1. The items stated above should be taken at random
    as there is no measure for anything. One by one it should
    be placed in the pot in a warm place by a competent
    person.
  2. This kunapa is highly nourishing for the trees. This
    is as stated by the ancient sages and I (Surapala) repeat
    it here after verifying the same.
  3. For the growth of a young sapling a cold mixture
    prepared out of fish, flesh, and sesame should be given

  4. So long as the color of their foliage is not similar to
    that of the coral, newly planted trees should be protected
    from the sun.
  5. Newly planted trees in arid land should be watered
    every morning and evening for a period of fifteen days
    until the soil is fully soaked.

    only once in five days. In ordinary soil, watering should
    be done for ten days every morning and evening, the
    quantity of water being limited.
  7. Well-rooted plants should be watered every
    alternate day in winter, every evening in spring, and
    thrice a day in summer.
  8. In the rainy season and autumn or when the soil
    becomes dry, juice of medicinal plants mixed with urine,
    marrow, and milk should be given.
    113-114. The kunapa water, the excreta, and flesh are
    the ingredients to be mixed with water previously
    treated with fermenting seed for trees to produce
    flowers and fruits in abundance.
  9. A discerning person should weed out all the grass
    growing in the vicinity and should dig it out from near
    the roots of the trees with a spade.
  10. The trees give extreme satisfaction by their fruits
    and flowers when rendered free even from suspicion of
    impurity by subjecting them to the treatment of smoking
    by the mixture of white mustard seeds, flowers of the
    arjuna tree, and flesh of the hare added to a combination
    of antiseptic (vidanga) and turmeric powder.
  11. The trees yield rich reward in the form of flowers
    and fruits in a very short period when smoked with the
    mixture of plantain leaves, white mustard seeds, and a
    small, shining variety of fish.
  12. The trees bear abundant fruits and flowers quickly
    if watered with the mixture of marrow of stag and hog,
    honey, ghee, and tender leaves of nicula.
  13. Trees which are smoked heavily by a mixture of
    ghee, vidanga, milk-water, and honey become full of
    flowers and fruits in a short time.
    (A part of the verse is unintelligible.)
  14. All the creepers bear flowers and fruits in
    abundance when watered by a mixture of the marrow
    of python and dhammina snake.
  15. A creeper bears fruits and flowers when pierced
    with a sharp instrument (literally, with a sting of a
    scorpion), smoked with the fat of saphari (a tiny, shining
    fish), and sprinkled with the marrow of a hog and
    mouse.
  16. The grape creeper bends down with flowers and
    fruits if the roots are nourished with powdered excreta
    of cocks and sprinkled with water mixed with fish fat.
