Hey Paul, thanks for coming. After watching through this I would like to add three corrections to things I said, maybe you can pin this comment or something. 1. I make it sound like I do the farm totally myself, and watching I couldn’t help but feel arrogant and unappreciative. Two friends, JC and Mynor have been critical at helping get the farm going strong, including the nursery. Secondly, my wife is the second pillar of the business who did not get adequate credit. Sometimes it’s hard to get everything right on camera and I feel like a goof for this one. 2. This weekend I spoke with Julian Lara and he said Viejo Mamey holds fruit for 2 years like any old variety so my information on this cultivar may be way off base. More time will be the only way for me to personally report on this. 3. The common name of Ficus auriculata is quite well known, it is Roxburgh fig.
Josh, you stated that you did a trial of about 40 sweet potato varieties and planted the most productive. Which varieties worked best for you? Also, how do they compare taste wise to some lesser productive varieties?
No higher compliment than Josh giving you credit for helping research best mangos for his orchid. Your videos are an amazing chronicle of the Florida fruit scene. Thanks!
I have bought a bunch of stuff from Cody Cove Farm. I love how Josh is really putting in research on improving varieties of different crops. He is really trying to improve people’s lives. His prices are great as well! Hope he continues to find improved staple crops for homeowners to have!
Thank Paul For the video . Josh is amazing, I order some casaba and passion fruits seeds from him a few months ago and everything is growing up perfectly. Thank Josh from West Palm Beach.
Thanks to Josh’s dedication to experimenting with the best varieties I can’t wait for my yellow yuca to mature. His mission and work ethic are admirable. Looking forward to my garden maturing with his.

I have been SUPER IMPRESSED with Cody's products! I have his Cassava, Chiya, and a couple longbeans! Great stuff for Florida soil- I tossed a few sticks in the sand and some seeds in the same conditions and i think i have a 99-100% germination rate. Every Cassava stick threw up leafs within three days of being in the soil.
I don’t have a farm ; but one thing I did for my vegetables garden is wood ship, I am in Central Florida too. The only pitch tree I saw 👀 producing well was Florida Prince, don’t bother with Georgia Bell, or tropical fruits. Tropical Fruit is very prolific, but it’s very small, and a fly can swipe the whole entire crop. Green pigeon sells very well between Hispanic people, you are not far from Orlando, one thing from this grain is that has 11 gm of protein per cup. I have them in my garden. The good thing in your favor is you are young and healthy and have the love and desire of doing it. I grew up in a farm and I remember we had pigs, caw, chicken, vegetables and fruits!! That was a lot of work!
We are south of him, Lake Placid. Joined by our daughter and their family, I'd like to explore pooling our resources into one property. Just waiting for prices to come down...
hi do you have any idea how far down south from a lake (for a given lake width) the warm micro climate exist? does it have to be right on the water edge? or hundreds or thousand feet would be ok? Thanks for your time.
That does look like Israel. 🙂 I'm always interested to know about pest management, fertilizer use, and soil improvement strategies. I think it's important to know because I wonder if it's really worth it to try to force plants to grow if toxic chemicals must be used.
Yes, I think Paul should ask more questions about the specifics of people's growing practices instead of just trying to squeeze in as many species as possible in the videos.
@@jackson8085 He does ask these types of questions at times. . . I guess his style is "organic" which is more refreshing than having a checklist of questions. 😊 I also didn't feel like too many varieties were covered, but to each their own.
I’m surprised to see the sycamore fig and the ficus auriculata because both are supposed to require a wasp that doesn’t exist in the US. Without the action of the wasps the fruit never ripens and just falls off.

This place is amazing. I can’t wait to see it in a few more years. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! What a huge yellow passion fruit! I can't believe I missed ordering that! If only I'd seen this video first. Thanks for a great job, Paul.
Another awesome video thank you Paul and Cody
What an inspiration, beautiful place
Awesome thanks for sharing

Hi Carlos, next time I'm that way I'll do my best to come see you
I’m from Brooklyn too 😀 have been in Florida since 2015
Wonderful video. I couldn’t help wondering though, or I may have missed it, what was that yellow ball he tossed around in his hands the entire video?

Anyone know the fig rootstock he uses for nematodes?
What is the plant similar to spinach that needs to be boiled, that is known in Haiti?
I did not hear the name.
Haitian basket vine AKA fey lougawou
Where can I buy that passionfruit vine?
I got the ruby from Julian and it gets filled with worms. Maybe it's just that bad near me though
:( sorry to hear. Was really hopeful
Bag the fruit when it is young and you may not get fruit fly larvae
I know. The point with this variety was that you wouldn't need to
Awesome im about 25 min from there 😊

I'm sad for lack of space to plant additional mango varieties

tried to go to the website but Google says its potentially dangerous
