- IT'S A FRESH START AT MY CALAMANSI FARM IN AGUSAN DEL SUR.
With a new crew working, I am starting to overcome some of the challenges of farming in the Philippines.
We are replacing the seedlings that died - and seeing results from proper care of the others!

Back to back vlogs KD AND KULAS, wish you all the best with your kalamansi ventures 👏👏👏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
One thing with farming, I learned when we had our farm, They have to buy into it. Almost if not a partnership, and if the farm is successful? Then they will be employed and make a leaving. I admire your dedication though. Power on.
This time Kumander, pag hands-on through frequent visits or naay sinaligan nga masaligan gayud. Mo lambo na kay maayo ang yuta, location, naay water source.
Anselm you have such an honest, caring, generous, and inclusive nature. You genuinely recognise the contributions of your team. You deserve every success and rewards. Wishing you all the best with this endeavour. 🙏
Mulch the surrounding ground of the Calamansi tree until they are big enough. Use rice hull with saw dust, it not only prevents weeds from creeping to the plant, it also traps moisture. It's very cheap, you can buy it in any nearby rice mill. Use cow dung to fertilize your plants. Invest in proper irrigation as well. Good luck Commader, i hope you find people who have the "malasakit" to care for your farm.
He'd need a massive amount.
not good for agusan weather..
Chicken manure and water also after plants
@@ziggarilloEither that or he has to select a few people that he really trusts. It's in bad taste for me to say this as a Filipino but one can never be too sure especially as a white expat homesteading
@@rowellbanay3350 Sino sabi? di mo ba alam na malalawak ang kalamansian sa agusan lalo na sa agusan del sur...
Kumander, sana nakahanap ka ng #MATATAPAT at masipag trabahador.
Sa mga Pilipino, wag nyo tignan ang mga foreigner ibang tao. Ang importante may puso at willing tulungan ating bansa at kapwa Pilipino. Yon na yun.
Sana nga makahanap siya ng matapat. Mukhang namatay ang ilang kalamansi dahil mukhan hindi na diligan. Sa tingin ko lang.
"The dream is back." Beautiful words, Kumander. Glad to see you finding happiness with these new beginnings. Congrats on finding the crew you deserve.
My friend was smiling when you said "I don't want to damay this" instinctively instead of i"nvolved" or "include"or "affect" or anything similar. You've definitely been staying in the Philippines more than a week.
I can see and hear the confidence you have with the new crew. They sound more knowledgeable. I pray it all works out great for you
Glad to see you're bouncing back on a more POSITIVE footing, Anselm. Good job! 👍🏻 ... A few ideas from the Comments = 1) FENCE: someone suggested putting up a fence to keep away goats etc. What do u think? ... 2) TARP or Mulch: this was suggested around each sampling -- to curtail the growth of weeds. Thoughts? ... 3) Security CAMERAS = when/if budget allows, is this a viable option? It should also give you a peace of mind. ...
Thought I'd highlight these out to you, for easy reference. ... Take care, Anselm. Enjoy your Cateel visit!!
Hello KD, I hope this time it will be a success . You have trusted worker now but still different when you are hands on . That’s a huge property maybe you should consider planting mangosteen and durian . You need to have a water well calamansi needs a lot of water. Good luck let’s pray for your success !
It's great that you had it back to back again. Just be careful with whom you trust espcially strangers. Whish you more success of you new endeavor.
Commander I like watching and hearing about the progress of your calamansi farm. I hope your workers stay loyal to you and help your farm grow. They all look to have a good attitude. Keep the videos coming. they are very entertaining.
Hello Anselm, I'm glad that you found a new crew, hope that they stay loyal and hard-working too.
Kinahanglan gyod nimo nga naay bantay na masaligan og but an. Grabe ang kawat ana nga mga plants. Experience wise. Just need a frequent visits. God bless.
This time hoping for your Success kumander Daot🙏🙏
KD make sure you maintain the space around the calamansi- no weeds growing around it, cultivate once in a while using shovel to air out roots, so they grow faster and healthier. I noticed your property has different elevations; do you have an area in your property where there is a water source like creek, canal, stream or brook? That would be great! In case of dry, at least you have a place to get water to water your calamansi. You can even plant some fruit trees from seeds like mango, avocado, guayabano, etc., or some of your favorite vegetables like sweet potatoes as ground cover, corn, tomatoes, cooking banana, etc. just a small part just for your consumption. We had banana in our farm and underneath those bananas wild mushrooms grow. Maybe your wife can help you and check your farm from time to time if you are out of town...just a thoughts.🤔👍
Yes there's a spring at the bottom! A great water source. That's what I realised now also that they need to be weeded and the soil loosened so they can breathe!
Your vlog is very inspiring. We are also doing a rehab of an old calamansi farm. Our seedlings were planted right before the peak of el nino, so a few were affected.
You are right, the grass, when not tended will impact the growth of the seedlings. It's also one the activities require the most effort aside from watering the calamansi plants (our plants are also in sloping area like yours).
Lesson learned Calamansi they're going to do better this time like the workers they're happy.
Good luck, KD, on your new endeavor! May God protect your farm and make it flourish!
awesome perseverance Kumander, on a good path!
Well done Anselm, onwards and upwards you've got this bloke 👍
Wishing you all the best, KD! 🥰 I’m so glad that you found good workers and that you got the happy feeling back again. Praying for your success. 🙏
KD trials in life just come and go, extend more patience buddy. Practice positive farming, more blessings are coming bai.
Yes its good you have good workers there now and your alot happier now we can see that the crop looks healthy to good you got reliable people
Thank you Kumander for creating a job for those people. God bless you more and more blessing to come for you and your family.
Way to go Kumander! Very happy for you! I believe in you!
Kung magkaroon kasi ng workers dapat lagi ka Naka supervise dyaan ar hijdi mo dapat iaasa sa kanila etc. at dapat team work ang owner at employee mo at hands ka din .
Thanks for being so pure and sincere Kumader... hopefully this lovely group of people will be your real people and hopefully part of your family soon... good luack sa calamnsi.. its the best! amping1
So glad you have that positive feeling back about your calamansi farm! Life is like driving . You don't do either by spending more time looking back in the rear view mirror than out the windshield (windscreen for you British). That's why the windshield is so big, and the rear view mirror is so small. May this business fuel your joy. Happy days ahead! Power on!🤙💪
@@cooljj9 Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. Life's already hard enough without adding more negative to it. Aloha at Mabuhay!🤙
I noticed that too between KD and Kulas! Before I read people's comments (out of curiosity), I usually scrolled it down first to see if you posted something... and lo and behold you always there. Thanks for supporting KD and Kulas.😃👍
@@normaacey3513 What a nice thing for you to say. Obviously, you're always supporting them, too, so thank you for that as well. It's so easy to do when they're such likable people and fun to watch. Don't you agree?🤙
Nice work and blessed your kalamansi farm, keep up the good work KD 💯💪💖 and keep safe and good health 💯💪💖💯 GOD BLESS PO SA INYONG LAHAT 💓🙏🍒💖💯💪
Keep it up KD, learn from your mistakes, experience is the best teacher.
These new seedlings look much better than the ones before
Hello Kumander D.! It's Jovita Gibson here. We just got back from our awesome holiday from the Philippines! We went on our Coron Islands hopping tours. It's raw, not crowded & touristy like Boracay. Love the sandbars!
Anyway, I am so inspired watching your vlog regarding your new calamansi farm. You are really
an inspiration to us your subscribers. Whatever happened in the past with your fish farming business, at least you did not give up.
I just want to share this beautiful inspirational quote with you & your subscribers alike " Before The Reward, There Must Be Labor. You Plant Before You Harvest. You Sow In Tears, Before You Reap Joy"
By:Ralph Ramsom
Thanks, Kumander D., please continue to inspire us with your videos. Watching from, Nanaimo, B.C., Canada
Hey Jovita! Glad you had a great trip! I still haven't been to Coron! Sounds like I need to go there!
Really appreciate your support always. Stay safe there in Canada! 🙂
Quick tip. Harvest your calamansi on an OFF season to maximize profit. 👍 . Good luck sir.
I’m so proud of you KD keep it up 😂
Remembered calling it lemonsito as a child growing up there. My mother used to make chiffon pie, meringue pie, and marmalade. My father swore it tasted better than using lemons or key lime. I loved it best raw with fish sauce, soy sauce. Hoping for an abundant harvest in the future.😀
You can use washed cement bags to stop the grass growing around. They are free on jobs sites you can add them to the plants slowly, it will also help with water retention. Rice hull is also free and a good mulch after you take the grass out. Good luck on your venture, calamansi is very fragile young but gets stronger as they grow 😀
an exciting time for you! looks good
Good luck on your farming your plants. Farming is a learning process but you'll get the hang of it. You have some very nice people helping and that's a blessing. Happy Farming!!
Fantastic!!
Praying for your success Kumander. Abante!
Hard work brings big benefits. Soon, you will see the growth and fruitfulness of your labor.
Good luck on your calamansi farm!
Godbless on your new start comander..
Sana all!!
i hope the new workers are honest to you im hoping for a fruitful calamansi in the future
God bless your plans and plants Kumander!

i am always rooting for your success
Wishing you all the best with your kalamansi farm. More blessings!
Wow love to see your calamansi farm. A good source of vitamin c and many other uses. Always watching from Cebu City, Philippines
Another thing I learnt years ago is, there is a lateral root that should be planted north to south.
REALLY happy to hear your uplifted spirits, Anselm!!! If anyone in the world deserves it, it's YOU! But....save some money for our EURO 2024 pool!!!😁
Praying your calamansi project will be a success! God bless u and ur family Kumander!
Try 1/4 Tbsp of puridan and 3 tbsp of basal at the hole before planting Calamansi seedlings to attain 100% survivability. Wag ma Daot sa pagtanim kumander hehehe
NATURE IS EVERYTHING
Good morning kumander daot nice sharing
God bless Daot🙏I wish you all the best on your Calamansi farm,praying for you....
I will also (add you to my prayers). Also, I’ve now watched a few more of your videos & realize you have been farming/had various agribusiness experiences in the Philippines already. Didn’t mean to treat you like a newbie or patronize in any way. May the Lord prosper the work of your hands🌳🌳🌳
Good luck kumander u deserve all the success! Ur such a nice person n I wanna see u succeed when harvest time comes🙏👍😊
Life is good in the Philippines! Enjoy the ride
Thank you Kumander for sharing another awesome video
power on, kumander daot!
Good job sir!
Wishing you all the best sir KD sa imong mga venture dri sa Pinas.
Good job!
Here in canlaon Negrosoriental you're welcome here. Small farm... ali na kumander soroy diri...😊
KD< just a suggestion, you have to be hands on in your plantation if you really want to succeed, make a study with the Burea of Plant Industry even to help you, that way , you loss a little!
You have a great team there. Your team should have excavate 1meter down with a diameter of 1meter on top. Pulverize the soil and place it back in the hole, before planting your nice calamansi. . .
I managed a large printing operation in Manila for many years and the best advise I can give you is to show up every day and walk around the entire property every day. I know you still don’t think that level of attention is necessary to manage things but it is to be a leader. Three months ago you thought you could do otherwise and how did that work out?
Ideally yes... The problem is that I would be unable to fulfil my other commitments if I was always at the farm. Given that they won't fruit to commercial levels for a couple more years, I would also struggle to have any income. So I have to compromise. As long as I am there often, even if it is not every day, it is the best I can do. And it is better than one visit in 3 months, which was a mistake on my part!
reminds me of the kalamansi that i planted in my backyard several years ago. It has not bear fruit until today 😄😄😄
Awesome 😎
Good luck and God bless
Nice kumander
keep it up, KD! basig pde muextra dha sa imong farm tig timpla ug kape hehehe cheers!
We have a 5 acre calamansi farm, but it was a failure. Money lost. We have the same type of soil actually and our area is elevated as well. That's also the problem we've faced before. No proper care for the calamansi tree, grass growing around, etc. Lessons are learned the hardway. Like people, these plants needs tender love and care. Our area is still vacant as we think of its best use. In the meantime, study study study, so that next time it will be a success
wow very beautiful content friend
Amigo just buy a Citrus fertlizer plus put worm compose for sure it will grow wildly.
Komander visita sa department of agriculture and ask some advise for your plantation they can help you the technics
Good job sir
water is the most important thing you need right now and it has to be hands on. Good Luck. Just hope you take my advise. Water water water. For your calamansi, it needs tender loving care for you to succeed.
ingat lagi kumander Daot ♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗
ANG GANDA DYAN KUMANDER
I am a wormer and looking at all the green there I would be in heaven there as I am planning a few trips to see where I a at home
@kumanderDaot, that's why i was also hesitant during your first planting why you opted for marcotted cuttings. seedlings are far better. marcotted ones also die early
You were such a fuken Amazing great human being anselm! Salute mate! regards from Darwin, australia.
Hey Kumander Daot, I've been planning to plant calamansi as well in our idle land. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Perhaps someday we'll get together to talk and get precious advice from you. :)
I love calamansi and your vlog is really interesting and so happy you choose calamansi to be planted. I wanna buy hahahha
Larota ang sagbot apil ang gamot para wala nay mo compete sa nutrients (pull the whole weed out including the roots :) ).
wow your busienss is nice my friend just continue so for foreigner outthere you have idea what busines you can start in the philippines were happy the goodvibes
Don't think too much of the bad experience you had with your workers in the pond and the farm, karma will take care of it. Just remember the lessons learned and soldier on.
❤❤❤
Kumander ❤🇵🇭
