I was having terrible problems with my fruit seed starting. They'd die fast one way or another. I saw a video on programming seeds. It was about starting the seeds with the worst soil on your property. So far so good. It apparently gives the seed low expectations and kicks it into a sort of overdrive. So far so good. But I will use your method at planting time for sure!
I like to extend my air conditioning drip line out to service a tree or two when I can. Just letting it sit on that toot zone gives it a consistent drip of moisture in the hot summer months. Works very well
I started my greenhouse last fall. Alot of chop n drop, compost tea, chicken poop and forest covering. Planted some stuff and when it got cold I got a drip hose. Ran the drip overnight below 40°. Even the avocado tree loved it. Went down to 24°, still have the avocado, longevity spinach, shiso, turtle vine, wandering jew, parsley, moringa and even an orchid hanging up is setting a bloom. I'm so flabbergasted.
So THATS why my lemon tree is producing so profusely this year! I’ve been loving it a little too much and giving it lots of water. Lol then I gave it some shake and feed in February. I didn’t think I was going to get anything from my tiny citrus but they’re all going off!
Great example with your tree vs your neighbors. Dripping water on it slowly every other day and use Manuer. I just started my 1st white mulberry tree cutting from a friend yesterday with chicken Manuer and water. I’m currently manually watering it and I can tell after hearing your video I didn’t do enough. Thank you!

I can relate to this bit of advise as I planted coconut at the same time as my neighbor but mine are all loaded. I watered them all through the dry season I got fruit I 1.5 years instead of 3
You know so much and are really helpful to us all. I watered my plum after watching this. I like it when you sing in your gardening videos. It’s happy making!!
Try education. I NEVER yell at a tree. I explain to them that trees are used to produce fruit, firewood and/or shade. I ask them which they want to be. Most decide not to be firewood.
You can easily tell when a fur tree finally finds it's own water - you'll see 6 to 10 inches or more new growth at the tips, and they will shoot up vertically. It's a glorious sight!
absolutely TRUE! tree well, fill 3x water, feed, every 3 days. everything that was ded that was brought home, I brought back to life and thrived. 100 plants, bushes and trees. 99 survived, 9500 elevation, ski country.
Hey survival Gardner here's a tip: find a metal rod about a 1/4" or 3/8" thick and 3' long. on one end make a dull point, on the other end fashion a "T" handle. use this device to poke deep holes around your trees so that the water can more easily get down into the roots!
There is a reason we turned the front lawn into a food forest and not the back..... it means its in sight and in mind all the time. Although I got lucky with the soil, not much organics atm (it was a lawn for nearly 50 years lol) but it is a loam soil tending towards a little more clay. Even during our hot Aussie summer, I only need to deep water maybe every 2-3 weeks, as long as I keep the sugar cane mulch up. I can dig the soil and its damp to a foot and a half (that's where I stopped digging). Trees seem to love it, especially my Magnus Summer apple. It went from maybe 40cm high to well over 2m at this point. It exploded. I will cut it, sorry prune it in half come winter in a few months. So nature has taken care of the water problem, I just need to keep feeding the soil.
This is great info and a good reminder. I have some avocado, cashew, jackfruit and cinnamon trees on nursery and a couple dozen other fruit and nut trees as well as coffee and cacao planned for my food forest. I’m still building my house and waiting for my well to be drilled before I can plant the first trees. Here in Liberia, we’re in the middle of our six month dry season and our last rain was 7 weeks ago. So building on a hilltop without running water, it’s a terrible time to plant anything. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some trees in the ground next month. I’ll definitely be following your advice! Thanks, brother!
I'm using fertilizer spikes to apply the feed below the grassroots ('cause I don't want to grow grass) and giving about 3-5 gallons of water per day during the growing season for my nut trees. This will be year three for my pecan trees, and they look like they will be producing at least 20lbs of nuts per tree. The hazelnuts that I planted THIS year are growing like weeds (7-10 gallons), and will likely produce nuts next year. Water, water, and water Is absolutely the trick, especially when your tree is trying to fill out it's fruit.
Very, very good advice. I just wish that we had that problem. We have the opposite. Way too much rain. We have to put our new ones in raised beds this spring.
Thank you. Too much water is a big problem. They should still benefit from regular feeding, though, especially with how nutrients are probably washing right through.
Thanks, Mr Good. This lifehack video is 12,000 years overdue. Imagine what our ancestors could have done with this knowledge. This constant irrigation and fertilizing business is revolutionary stuff indeed.
Nice one! I'm in the Permaculture camp and there's a paradigm of "letting the plant find its way" but I often find myself suggesting out loud to the screen, "give it some food and water" when the presenter is saying, "It's just not doing very well here".
Trick I learned from an old timer: use a 5 gallon bucket with a small hole in it to provide a slow drip of water. Especially to trees that are tough to get to with a hose and also have to check on them less ofted.
The Baby nurturing parallel is so true. I turned out ok I guess, but all my siblings were between 10-15 years old before learning to walk. Now it all makes sense why.......
This is good info. I rarely water my trees, but we have been getting quite a bit of rain the last couple of years. But yeah, I think I will try using compost more and watering more often this year especially since I water everything with rainwater so it doesn't cost me anything but time.
Great info. My local home store stopped carrying the manure based fertilizer I was using on my citrus. So I switched to what they said was the product I needed...and all my fruit stopped. Now I know why. Thumbs up to anyone quoting Scripture.
Same works for nut trees to. Helps to maintain adequate moisture also. Keep the mulch/fertilizer away from the trunk of the tree, fungus etc (diaper rash?).
Aside from hammering, you can burn leaves near the tree to smoke it. It is used to stress the tree to think it is in danger so it will produce flowers. The smoking method is used here in South East Asia

I have 2 spruce trees in pots that I've been keeping alive. Bare rootstock. They're sitting against the front porch so that I don't forget them, even in winter here in SW North Dakota I go out on really nice days and water them.

" *He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.* *Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?* *And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:* *And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down."

Love the video Brother very well putt together I know for a Fact you’re On point 💯💯💯every time I plant a Tree I water it put dead animals an fish in the Ground just past the drip line an then some organic stuff around the drip line around the tree on top of the soil….. wen I plant something I give it love 365 they Blow 🆙 Man 😉💯💯💯🙏🌎❤️💪👊
I’m setting up a 3 acre food harvest. I set up 300 sprinklers on a push button system. My fruit trees look super healthy and growing well. Most have grown feet not inches in 5 months. I thought it was pretty obvious to water every few days in our hot climate. I Fertilise with mainly grass clippings and occasionally cow or chicken manure tea.
David, Have watched your, site sorry to say only occasionally, that is over I'm glad to subscribe today just because of that t-shirt!!! Going to check out the store....
Thank you! I just ordered your new Florida survival gardening book and two of your previous books. I also ordered the English version of the JADAM organic gardening book. I live in Citra, FL, and was going broke buying topsoil and composted cow manure for my sandpit yard! I am going to add a food forest and new garden areas once I have killer trees professionally taken down and the branches and tops chipped. The topsoil and compost proved I can grow stuff on Citra Beach, but I need to do things differently to scale up. Thank you! P.S. Your wife is a great teacher, too!
Ps maybe that's why my 20' avacado tree never has produced one avacado! Although it did survive hurricane irma and is coming back to life three yrs later. AND i just learned a couple of days ago that the leaves are edible with vit b6 etc!!!💜🙏
I guess it depends on the species. Many fruit trees wait for droughts to signal when it’s time to flower, most famously Durians. If they are continuously watered year round they’ll never make fruit.

Funny I was told not to feed a fruit tree but to let it stretch it’s roots out and get used to it’s native soil.
❤❤❤ Super thank you for helping life
Ps maybe that's why my 20' avacado tree never has produced one avacado! Although it did survive hurricane irma and is coming back to life three yrs later. AND i just learned a couple of days ago that the leaves are edible with vit b6 etc!!!💜🙏
Good video. Thanks.
Really great stuff...back to basics. Cheers, brother! Chris.
Thank you, Chris.
I guess it depends on the species. Many fruit trees wait for droughts to signal when it’s time to flower, most famously Durians. If they are continuously watered year round they’ll never make fruit.
In that case, grow them big, then let them fend for themselves.
Nice video, very informative, Thanks for sharing bro👍
