    Wow, I can't believe the amount of fruit you had on some of those trees! Slightly jealous that you are able to grow them outside. Great video once again Kalem :D

    When I planted lemon seeds and some orange seeds I put them in a flower pot where were other plants, since I'm absent minded and might forget to water the seeds. I waited about for a month but nothing came, so i got frustrated and started putting random citrus seeds into the pot. and in some time my pot got invaded with citrus plants ! all the seeds had 2-3 little plants coming out. now it's been almost 1,5 years since my lemon tree sprouted, the other lemon with it dried up and my other mandarin tree got eaten while summer by butterfly larvae. Also if i hadn't put it to greenhouse while summer the tree would me much taller, since it didn't get light between other bigger plants, after putting it to light it started to grow taller, you could see it growing new leaves everyday. now it is loving it's winter home on the sunny window and growing great.

    On the Lime tree you transplanted if you paint the trunk and branches with white latex paint cut with 50% water it will help cut down on the sun burn since it lost most it's leaves in the move. the same also works on avocado trees. just a little FYI.

    Those look awesome.I wish we could grow citrus here.I have a small lemon tree that I started from seed that's a couple of years old but it's still only houseplant sized and has never flowered or anything.

    Nicely loaded grapefruit, Kalem, impressive! Which variety of Blood Orange do you have planted in the sheep paddock? Meyer Lemon is a fantastic culinary choice - one of my favorites. That sweeter lemonade tree sounds very cool, too :-)

  • @mryvelazquez

    Regarding the kaffir lime; is the smell of the leaves identical to the smell of the fruit? Last time I smelled the fruit at the market and it was awful. If the leaves has a different and more appealing aroma, then perhaps I'd grow one.

    • @TheKiwiGrower
      @TheKiwiGrower  5 років тому

      I really like the smell of the leaves - like fresh citrus smell - great to cook with them :)

    All right, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back. GET MAD! I DON'T WANT YOUR DAMN LEMONS! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THESE?! DEMAND TO SEE LIFE'S MANAGER! Make life RUE the day it thought it could give CAVE JOHNSON LEMONS! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! I'M THE MAN WHO'S GONNA BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN! WITH THE LEMONS! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that's gonna BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN!
