Thanks for watching. What area do you live in?

@@edibletropicaltrees oh hey. . SouthWest US. . . California. . 9b /10a grow zone I believe 💯🌿

Thanks for the. It tasted so good!

Thanks for watching. This is the first main crop Fig. This tree was only a cutting 18 months ago.

@@edibletropicaltrees thanks for your response. I have rooted two cuttings of Nixon Peace this year and hoping to put one in the ground next year. It is such a fast and vigorous grower.

Yes it is a fast grower. Other Fig trees that grow fast are: Peter's Honey, Panache Tiger, and Yellow Long Neck.

Thanks for watching. I'm in zone 9b, so it doesn't get too cold for them in my area. Moringa trees don't like cold weather. They are such fast growing trees, growing in containers doesn't work very well. Cutting them back and putting the cage around them, like you did, is the best way to try and get them through the winter in colder areas, because they don't like colder weather.

I put cuttings in 16 oz clear cups so I can see when they get roots. Then I put another cup over the top of the cutting to help with moisture. Black Madeira are slower growing, so may take a little longer to root.

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching and giving your location.

Thanks for watching. They had some Durian fruit at the Asian Market also, but it was in the freezer, so the seeds wouldn't have been viable. Sometimes they have fresh Durian, so next time they have fresh Durian I will get some and do a video.

@@edibletropicaltrees I agree with you , the durian fruit is usually preserved in the freezer . If you see the fresh one next time try it , a lot people don’t like the way it smells but I really eating it! It’s pricey than the jackfruit !

They're not the easiest plant to graft. Somehow a fungus usually attacks both the scion & grafting union. The seeds are super easy to germinate sometimes they're already germinating in the fruit. I'm wondering if you sanitize the grafting tools as well as probably treating both the rootstock & scion with some kinda anti fungal treatment would minimize or eliminate fungus infestation?

Thanks for watching and commenting.

You can use cactus potting soil from the store, but I'm actually using 30% Peat Moss, 30% mulch, 20% Sand, and 20% Perlite.

Thanks for watching and sharing your location.

Thanks for watching. I've tried to grow a few trees inside, but I think the AC dries the air out too much. I built a humidity greenhouse in my garage the I get the trees started in. Then I gradually acclimated them to the outside, before planting them in the ground.

Thanks for watching. When my Desert Gold Peach tree was younger the peaches were smaller. So yes as it gets older the peaches will get larger. It usually has lots of peaches, so I remove about one third of them and that helps the remaining ones be larger also.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. I try to give information that will help people grow better healthier tree, that has helped my trees grow better.

@edibletropicaltrees Also if you could, add in how you acidify the soil, and do you have to do it often? I love mangoes 🥭, have grown some from seed, but they croaked. I'd like to get one or two going again!

I check the pH of the soil at least once a month, to make sure it is in the correct range. To lower pH I add sulfur. There are different kinds of sulfur. Native sulfur only breaks down when temperatures are above 80°F. So in the winter I use ammonium sulphate, because it will break down at lower temperatures. Also sometimes I will put cup of vinegar in a gallon of water and pour it around the perimeter of the trees. I keep the pH of the soil on the East side of the house between 6.0 & 7.0

@@edibletropicaltrees thank you!

Fignomenal Fig trees are suppose to be dwarf trees that don't get bigger than 3 feet tall, so you should be able to leave it in a 5 to 10 gallon container. I have several varieties of fig trees in containers. In containers you need to add fertilizer once every month or two, because the fertilizer washes out when you water them. I try to put the containers where they get morning sun and afternoon shade.

Thanks for watching. Are you sure it's fertilizer burn? The water pH in my area is 7.5 and avocado trees want a pH of 6.0 to 7.0, so they can absorb nutrients unless the pH is in that area. I add sulfur to keep the pH under 7.0

You might try using a fertilizer higher in Phosphorus and Potassium. These minerals help promote flower and fruit set. Also how many hours of sunlight does it get? They usually require 5 to 6 hours of sunlight to set fruit.

​It gets sun from noon onwards. Seems to be enough to produce plenty of flowers. As far as the soil, it's covered in mulch with a very active population of critters breaking it down into black gold. So it doesn't seem to me like it would be lacking any nutrients. I hear they're not supposed to be fussy. I'm hoping one of these days it will surprise me 🙂

Thanks for watching. I've never had a seed from one type of fruit grow a different type of fruit. Seedlings are not true to seed. If the fruit isn't good, you might try grafting a known good variety of fruit to your tree.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching and for your comments.

Thanks for watching. Good luck on growing your seeds. It's fun watching them grow.

Thanks. I really like the fruit so definitely want to add to my collection. Thanks for the video.

The roots have a main tap root. I've grown them 3 feet from my house with no problems. I've been growing them for over 15 years.

@@edibletropicaltreesDid not know that! Thank you!

Thanks for watching. It is a little like an artichoke.

Thanks for watching. This is the first time I've tried it.

@@edibletropicaltrees you’re welcome !

Yes to get them to produce berries, you do need both male and female trees, but you can get pretty much the same spice from just the leaves. Also the leaves make a very good tea.

I'm a 4th generation native to Arizona and my great grandfather and the Apache Indians built most of the canals here in my area so they would have water for their plants. We still use those same canals today for water. 💦

Why not??????

@@geriannroth449 Why not what?

@edibletropicaltrees I was referring to your defying the Norm, to just make tings happen

@geriannroth449 OK, thanks.

Thanks for watching. Have fun growing pineapples.

Thank you very much, for the Father's Day wish.

@edibletropicaltrees you're most welcome!

In a gallon of water, put one aspirin and two tablespoons of Vitamin B1. This helps improve roots growth for seeds and cuttings. Aspirin has the same chemical as willow bark, which is a good rooting hormone. There are several things that can be used for rooting hormones, like Aloe Vera, honey, banana, onion, etc.

@edibletropicaltrees ok thanks for the confirmation. But do you use baby aspirin?

@@geriannroth449 No, just cheap aspirin I get at Walmart.

Thanks for watching and sharing.

Yeah, I understand Fignomenal Fig trees are suppose to be dwarf trees and stay small. The nursery I bought it from is usually pretty reliable, but I'm not sure if this is really a Fignomenal tree or not?

Thanks for watching. No I haven't tried Mabolo. I'll have to try and get a Mabolo tree someday. I've heard it's a banana flavored apple. Have you tried it?

I use it for all the trees I'm growing from seeds.

Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching.

I feel or the different varieties I've tried, this one is the best.

Thanks for watching. There are several varieties of Kumquat, this one is Kishu

@@edibletropicaltrees no information on such variety, I google it

Thanks for watching. I ordered it online about a year ago. I've heard there a place in Tempe, Arizona that has several varieties, but haven't been able to find out where that is yet.

@@edibletropicaltrees Ordered it from Etsy? I saw a seller there, but not sure if reputable... Appreciate if you can share. Thanks.

They are cold tolerant to the mid 20's °F and need morning sun and afternoon shade.

@@edibletropicaltrees 👍🏼🙏🏼

Thanks for watching. I love the taste of this fruit and I'm grafting it to all my citrus trees.

Mel is normal for an Abiu seed to produce 3 shoots?

I have 26 varieties of Figs trees which have fruit May thru November. Citrus starts ripening December thru March. Five varieties of bananas that ripen on their own time line, any time of the year. Loquats ripen February to March. Apricot that ripen in June. Six varieties of Nectarines that ripen May thru September. So there are different fruit ripening pretty much every month of the year, but it takes years for these different trees to mature to the stage where these trees give you a full production.

@@edibletropicaltrees Looks like figs and nectarines are key for the hottest months. Good info 👍 South Phoenix.
