Favorable environment for tea: 

The growth of the wild tea trees like the environment. Warm, moist environment where tapamatra from 6 to 8 degree Celsius and 2000 millimeters of rainfall was more than the amount of water vapor and air humidity 70-90%, which is the ideal environment for the cultivation of the area. In the light day, and soil stability around 21 hour acidly (PH 4.5-5.8), sandy and loamy healthy must be satisfactory. Tea tree can not bear much product. Tea seed collected from gutibari under tree 20 cm from 20 cm  to the distance of the triangle will be traded. Nursery soil are being nematodaless  before planting seed or cutting  . You must provide seed-plot shadow. From 60 to 75 centimeters per  above the shadow of the bamboo lac-leaf. Nursery plant growth and mobility for chemical fertilizers (URIA, TSP  and MOP)1: 1:2  ratio can be applied. Cutting from 150 to 180 centimeters above narsari with bamboo shadow can be arranged. Narsari irrigation water should be adjusted.

Approved seed collection and clone:

Improve the quality and yield of seeds than normal for the Bangladesh Tea Research Institute (BTRI) invented by the four type  of baiclonal seed stock like: BT 1, BT 2, BT 3, and BT 4 are without being called seed stock tea industry. Increasing production and development, as well as tea BTRI type of seeds  clonal selection through the obstacles clonal has its own 17. BT 1, BT 2, BT 3, BT 5, BT 7, BT 9, BT11, BT 13  and  BT 14 clones regarded as the standard clone.
