Hey! Any tips for growing these beautiful little fruit? My friend is going to give me a young sapling and I would love to give it the best life that I can.
I am growing three of them from seeds I bought from Austin Barnhill. I bought them after watching the video Jared (Weird Explorer) did trying the fingersop fruits you sent him. I think you are mistaken in calling them slow growing. What you should say is that they are extremely slow growing. Mine are over a year old now and none of them are six inches tall. They look happy, with a nice leaf color, but they send out new growth at a snail's pace. Other than not drowning them and keeping them protected from cold, do you have any growing tips about fertilizer, pH, etc.? There is almost no growing information out there about them. Germination is also very erratic. Two of them germinated last summer; the third seed germinated last month, about fourteen months after I planted the seed.
@@Tyschlorp Mine are starting to grow a little faster than they did in the past. I am not sure why, probably because they are older and more established. I am still not talking a fast growth rate by any means. I can't give you any special growing tips since I have not figured out the key to steady growth. All I can say is water them when they need water and give them some fertilizer every so often; standard plant advice. If I had more advice to give specifically about Fingersops, I would give it to you. Good luck with your rare fruit growing.
@@thedoors1388 1 year later and I see what you mean with the Fingersop growing faster as they get more established. I had two plants, but one died :( The one that has survived though has grown a significant amount since I've gotten it and I am quite proud of it! How are yours doing?
@@Tyschlorp I didn't up-pot them last spring/summer, so their growth has slowed once again since they're rootbound (or close to it). I hope they will start growing at a more vigorous pace after I up-pot them in the next month or so. Unfortunately, I think they're still several years away from fruiting, unless they really have a substantial growth spurt in the next year.
I will consider this vid part of the how i learned.. series. Keep it up adam👊👊

So does it be good taste?

Growing information is VERY hard to fi d on this plant. Do you have any tips for someone just getting one?
How are your fingersops doing?
