Macadamia trees are Australian Natives and have adapted to low phosphate , depleted soils. All Australian natives require low phosphate soils and fertilisers.

Such a resilient tree then 🌲

Go to 9:00 where the advice actually starts, which is actually to go low on Phosphorus, and later on give some liquid iron.

Thanks for the detailed info. Really did help alot. Keep them macadamia videos coming. Like weather tolerance

Thank you. I think you will notice better growth and development.

I am in San Diego and I am having a lot of nut drop. What does my tree need? More water more fertilizer??

Can these trees can grow in tropical mashland? I have some tropical mashland during munsoon season, rest of the time the land is dry. If anyone have the knowledge please share it with me!

Liked the video. Do the cutting need to be in a bag or in green house the entire 9 months would have liked to see the rooting on those air layers more in depth very good video

The cuttings need to be inside a plastic container or place a bag over the pot. Keep the humidity high. Use a rooting hormone also on the cuttings and the air layers. I will do an update in about two months on the air layers with more details and show the root system. Thanks for your comments and visiting my channel.

i love your videos. I have a small yard so I need to be careful of what I grow. I want to grow some kind of nut but do not know which. Any suggestions?

Depending on your location maybe try the Macadamia or possibly a pecan tree. Thanks for your nice comments.

Hey man cool video. What are the Thornier leaf kind of macadamia varieties called?

@Pepesplants

Four species exist and they easily hybridize so difficult to answer your question. The Arkin has almost no spikes-thorns. Macadamia integrifolia: Seedling leaves can be large and prickly, but mature leaves have smooth edges, generally with three leaves to each node, new flush is green, flowers are cream and the shells are smooth. The species Macadamia tetraphylla, has four spiny leaves to each node, new flush and flowers are pink and the shells are bumpy or dimpled. The other two species: The species Macadamia ternifolia has three leaves with spiny margins to each node, flowers and new flush are pink. The shells are small and smooth the nut is bitter tasting. Macadamia jansenii has three leaves with smooth margins to each node, flowers are cream and new flush is green or pink. The nuts are small bitter tasting and smooth. Hope that helps.

You mentioned about using the iron and zinc 4x per year. Could I apply it once a season or 4x between Spring an Summer. I live in central Texas. My mac is in a container and considered a seedling. Should I start fertilizing now or wait until it's larger?

If the leaves look healthy no need. When they get older and in the ground the soil pH can cause problems with nutrient uptake. Generally they need very little Phosphorus but in low pH soils they can actually become deficient in phosphorus.

Am in Uganda in east Africa. I have just grown my macadamia two weeks ago. At what time do I have to start adding fertilizer, or manure to my garden. Thank you

I inherited a macadamia nut tree when we bought a house in zone 10a fort myers fl. It produced a handful of. It’s but it has not been taken care of by previous owners and I would like to help it along to get back to health. It seems to be older as it is about 15 feet tall. I think it was starved for sun as it is very straight up and down without any canopy. Can it be hard pruned and come back. Thank you Melinda

@Pepesplants

Don't take off more than 30% of the canopy. Also, you need bees as pollinators so grow some bee friendly plants. Good luck.

My grandmother used to have her tree trimmed back yearly she said someone told her they needed it once I got her stop and only clean out the branches inside the canopy the tree has produced tons of huge nuts also I never clean up under the tree anymore like I used to they have shallow feeder roots like avocados leaving all the leaves dropped will eventually let bacteria and fungus grow so if you see white stuff in the leaf litter that’s good they form a symbolic relationship with the roots

What temperatures can this plant stand. In my area the temperature reaches about 44 degrees Celsius
