So cool to learn about micro-grafting. I don’t have any yet but have been learning on the varieties. I think I’ve narrowed it down to 5, lol. I have a small space and would like to try grafting a few varieties onto a sabra. I’m in west FL, hope everyone’s trees are doing ok in the tropical storm.
Any idea how much longer it would take a micro graft (on a seedling) to fruit than a more mature grafted Jaboticaba? Like say the width of a toothpick vs the width of a chopstick?
Hey Pete, love your channel and your vids. I would really like to see a video about a german food forest, because i havent seen any examples of germany based food forest systems on youtube. Would love to see that coming on to your channel, or if you already have a video about this, a link to it. Keep it up!
I’m 58 trying to build a wide variety of rare species. I started to view your videos and learned of this plant. I would love to acquire some stock. This plant fascinated me to no end. Am willing to learn. What is the best way to communicate with you. My wife is Into plants as well as mushrooms. Thank you for any help. I’m a novice grafter also. Thanks. Marty
how cold hardy are jabo's? I live in the PNW, so grow tent during the winter is a must, but I would love to get a compact one to start my journey, the scarlett would be great, besides its my daughters name too. another on point vid, thanks for YOUR time
Hey Matt! Jabo’s can handle roughly 26 degrees. They love containers and can handle being grown in one long term. Imagine a Jobo Christmas tree with fruit 😬 🎄
Hey man been following your work for about a year now or more dk, but I have been to a workshop today with a nurserist ( don't know it that's correct) and he told us that the method that is used on this video doesn't work for all the tree's is that correct, is it a misunderstanding or lack of knowledge of him , does the reliance of the method differs from place to place? Just to get the theme right. Keep the good work, love your videos.
Aloha Pete! I have a very important question for you. I'm a permaculture landscaper from Hawaii. We are fighting a cursed fire ant species called Wasmannia auropunctata (Little Fire Ant/LFA/Electric Ant) there are no organic baits available to use around edible plants and in the food forests. This grieves me so much to see what's happening to our paradise 😢 my garden is not safe for kids and animals. Since Florida has fire ants too, my question is: [Do you recommend any products to eradicate these creatures?!] Any advice you and your crew can offer is GREATLY appreciated! Mahalo nui 💚
May I ask why there's so much interest in jaboticabas from collectors? I have tried the jaboticaba fruit once and I was not impressed by its flavour. It wasn't as tasty as a grape, the skin was harder than a grape and more acid. It's not even in my top 15 fruits. Sure the trees are beautiful and unusual looking with fruit growing on the trunk. Is this why such trees so sought after or did I not taste a proper jaboticaba yet to be able to appreciate it?
I think you had a bad experience. The sabara variety can have tough skin but the flavor is on point. It’s definitely better than any grape I’ve ever had. I’d suggest giving them another chance.
Thanks again for coming out Pete!
john Morton hope you make more videos on your nursery man.
Cool stuff you have going.
It’s always great seeing you bro!
John’s been on fire this year with his nursery! I have so many amazing Plinias thanks to him
Thanks Joe! Your support means the a lot!
Seriously kicking ass! 👊

Awesome job Pete!! So much rareness!! I am trying to expand my own collection!

every thought about using sandpaper to take down the sides on such delicate pieces? maybe a nail file of some sort would work too.
I can’t wait to graft some Jabos
Great Video, have just done some micrografting with this as a guide!
Do any other plants work as a rootstock for jaboticaba?

Hey! Good luck with that cocktail tree. We had a few trees down and a big mess. It could have been a lot worse.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL oh no 🙈- so sorry to hear. That is true, overall lucky yet it was impactful and slow to pass
I like cleft grafts, but what do you think about approach grafting for Jaboticaba?
Any idea how much longer it would take a micro graft (on a seedling) to fruit than a more mature grafted Jaboticaba? Like say the width of a toothpick vs the width of a chopstick?
Hey John! Whats the name of the dwarf jaboticaba again?
WOW, but what is it about this plant that sucks us in, I have three now and can't wait for some fruit...fun when the kids get involved...!

Germany is on my list of countries to visit... one day!

Pete Kanaris GreenDreamsFL sounds like I need some seeds or a small jabo brother. Thank you for a quick reply.
Sweet! This video needs more likes! :D
Thanks! 🙏

sorry i missed the jabo that fruits in 3 yrs....?
what works in so cal....?
Scarlet
Is it easy to root cuttings?
Not at all
Didnt’ catch the name of the variety at the start of the video (the one fruiting earlier and 6x a year)
Why not air layer instead ? Wouldn't that fruit sooner?
Have you ever done a Jaboticaba fruit cocktail tree?
I haven’t personally but John has a few and I know a few other people that specialize in them.
Anyone know some good varieties for pots in colder climates?
One that fruits fast. I’d start with a red or escalarte.
Is there a reason he keeps his plants in pots?
What type of soil do these trees prefer? Someone told me that they hate acidic soil.
Anyone know a good pot size for jaboticaba
Need help with my jaboticaba

Aloha! Yes, email me I’ll content with the ant master. Prepare to have your mind blown. Admin@greendreamsfl.com

Thanks Pete, for the quick reply! I sent you an email just now.
I really need to learn grafting. I'm just scared I'll mess up and waste a good tree.
You can do it!
What’s he using for rootstock for his grafts
Just the regular Sabara or maybe a red.
Do you have Greek ancestry?
