Hey Nick Kasko I'm deeply appreciative of your video. You mentioned the berries are sour. How Do you ever snack on the berries in spite of this or are they not fit for eating by the handful by any palate?
@@Dontpaymenomine between Titan, Garden’s gift, and Botanica, the taste seems indistinguishable to me. It’s hard to tell because the berries are so sour. The only difference is size. Botanica is by far the largest berry
I found that sea berry can be used for a hedge, however it requires full direct sun. As a hedge the inner and lower branches that are shaded die. Pruning the bushes in a pyramidal form helped some. Pruning and harvesting fruit was like trying to give most cats a bath. The sharp multi-thorned thorns cut, scratch, and impale all but the most heavily protected skin.
Hi there, thank you for your video. We bought two females and a male from One Green World in Portland, OR. Planted last spring. How soon will females produce berries?
Grateful Loaf, how much space do you have. I just ordered four female and one male but I have a backyard. Wondering if they would be too much to handle.
I grew seaberry very well in Colorado but since moving to Kentucky have found they do not like growing here. Are there any varieties that would grow in a warm, humid summer climate?
I bought 2 females and a male and the male is growing well, but the two females haven’t put on much size in a year and a half in the ground. Do you water yours much?
I don’t need to water much because I am very close to the water table. If your soil is dry, you will need to water. They do drink quite a bit of water.

THANKS FOR THE INFO MANY BLESSINGS ❤❤❤❤
It would seem like the thorny variety would be good for those wanting to dissuade birds and other critters from stealing the harvest.
@@fightingquads9198 nobody steals the harvest, the berries are very sour, even for birds

@@seeblu the same way some can snack on lemons without making a face and some can’t 😂
They are easy to propagate as well since they send out runners
What is the purpose of covering the soil? To prevent water evapuration and use less water?
@@Ananimous7777 weed control mostly
How would you describe the differences in taste between your varieties and maybe any others you might have tried? Thanks

By any chance are any of your improved cultivars more heavily thorned?
I'd love a productive thorny seaberry for hedges

@@Grateful_loaf I believe my females began producing third year after planting
Do you think it is possible to graft a male branch on a female plant so I could just have one shrub?
Yes just like persimmons, you can graft male onto female
Exactly what I was just thinking... id guess you could, if you wanted to...
Does nt it have thorns? Any varieties that DONT... ie these...?
Chapter markers for the varieties would be great.

I don’t know I would try Titan, that one seems to be a vigorous grower
Thank you Nick.
Location and/or growing zone?
Nice looking trees
ZONE 8 NW WA
Where do you acquire these cultivars? I'm very interested in this plant
Is the benefit of no weeds and no grass cutting worth the cost of installing black tarp between the seabuckthorn plants?
Totally worth it but I would only use it to kill the grass. Then go back to just keeping the area well mulched
What variety is the largest and darkest in orange color

@@nickkasko2097 Ok, thanks for the info. I might need to up the water on the females.
