Eggfruit is not a popular tropical food crop, but it is one that should be on your radar.
Eggfruit is delicious when used properly. It's great on salads, in bread, and can be really delicious in pies.
And guess what? The seeds sell really well...if you're into making money..
So why not learn how to grow this amazing fruit! I'll show you how to grow this tree from seed, share how long it takes to see germination and more. Watch the video now.
And if you need any supplies featured in this video, like pots or labels, I added a link below to some of my favorite (hint...these are the best prices I've found on the internet for those of us in Hawaii, and I shopped around)

The eggfruit seeds i purchased from you are doing great! They grew with no problem. They are tiny trees now. I have them in the ground zone 9a

That’s awesome! I hope they fruit for you!
I came to learn about propagating egg fruit, after reading the comments I’m off to research IMO’s❣️

IMO's are pretty cool, I should start making some videos on them
Hi. Thank you for sharing. Do you graft the tree? how long it takes to fruit? grafted or nor grafted,

You don't have to graft eggfruit, they come out pretty true to seed, I had one fruit at a friends place after 5-6 years after planting from seed but production was much better @ 7-10 years
Informative, how much do you sale the seeds for?

Here's the link to my shop, but eggfruit is not in season yet, soon though www.etsy.com/shop/HomesteadinHawaii
What was the soil mix that you made?

I like using 50/50 promix to black cinder
Surprised you need to buy soil when you have been growing for so long, you don't have deep soil across your land to pull from, you don't incorporate any native soil into your mix? Have you considered propagating IMOs? Lots of Natural Farmers in the islands, curious what your thoughts are on the Natural Farming process

Where I live, every bit of soil built up is precious. I live in the wet tropics, where leaching soils is characteristic. You have to constantly add organic matter just to keep up. I would like to get into IMO's, maybe that will be something I do this year. It could make for a better potting soil.

@@HomesteadinHawaii yea man totally, we live in the humid tropics in Panama and the IMO has made a difference for sure.
Yellow sapote?
