    6:13 aaayyyyy. I was a bit surprised seeing that tree since its a tropical plant. Its belimbing buluh a.k.a bamboo starfruit. The fruits are small but its very sour, like lemon.
    Oh nice. A jackfruit & ciku tree too. I kept hearing "logan" but actually, its "longan". No wonder i was a bit confused. Im not familiar with any of the mango variety names. Might probably be the same here but different name. The only one i know was namdotmai; its my favorite.
    You should plant mangosteen, durian, rambutan, sugarcane, guava, soursop & many else

    Attention new Gardner's in Arizona and California...you can use the rocks but please water your trees
    These people are in South Florida where they get a lot more rain than we do so he can get away with a lot less watering...🙂

    I think that is great that he is using electroculture! I have a bunch of small fruit trees on the big island and they were all just sitting there not growing very quick, fertilizer was not doing anything either, so I started wrapping copper wire on sticks and putting it next to them and 75% of them took right off!! It is definitely worth looking into,

    You’re doing back to Eden plus electric culture plus no dig. Chop and drop gardening by doing this you don’t have to use water. The Woodchips will grab the moisture out of the air and feed the trees. The rocks will give you minerals and the copper wrapped around the stick will give you energy, making it into fertilizer, making it into nitrogen, you just don’t know the names of what you’re doing. This is what kind of gardening you’re doing. Hope this helps. Keep up the good work. Have fun doing it. God bless you and your family.

    The nails thing WORKS… my uncle had an avocado 🥑 tree that NEVER fruited 25+ years and nothing. One year my mother in law was visiting and she told us to hammer some nails into the main trunk and WELL what do ya know. The next season fruits BOOMING avocados for days.

    I told Tommy (Sleepy lizard) that in Mozambique my neighbor had me put rocks on and in the ground around mango trees. When we dug a hole to plant trees, we put rocks inside the hole. Not only rocks for moisture, but it helped the roots hold the trees during the typhoon season. I think Tom thought that I was talking out of my back side, but there were mango trees that we could not water at all. Never water some mango trees. Never. Too bad I don’t know the name of the mango trees.

      People don't tend to know all the tiny details because they are all spread out so far across the internet it's hard. Tree roots grow secondary feeder roots off of them, they are the super thin hairy ones. The feeder roots actually are able to tap into rocks and slow feed off of the minerals and moisture. Most people wouldn't ever guess that unless learning it from studies so they are often asking "what mineral deficiency is this?" and the sad answer half the time is "you could have put a few rocks in the hole and solved that".

      sounds interesting! do they do well? do you have any photos? I am keeping mine in pots, and the fabric pots sound nice. What are the benefits of covering them with rocks?

    • @kai_790
      @kai_790 2 місяці тому

      @@splinadero so far they are doing great, you just have to make sure your soil drains well so the water doesn’t pool at the bottom of your pot. The gravel help control weeds and it also retains some water overnight or during rainy days which is released when the temperature goes back up. I mainly used the fabric pots because I was worried about ruining the rock wall my grandpa built and because Orlando gardener has reported that restricting the roots a little can help it produce fruit earlier
