Great video! When is the tier 3 video coming?
Definitely thought the new growth on our longan was new growth that had shriveled and died... glad I saw this video!
Beautiful selection you have!!!!!!

Awesome 👏 keep up ⬆️ the great information ❤❤❤❤
Do you have a video on how you made your greenhouse - and particularly how you keep it cool?
For anyone in California or Arizona who is not in mountains, I would recommend pineapple (feijoa) and strawberry (cattelay) guavas. They are low maintenance, are hardy to below 20 F and produce edible fruit. The pineapple guava has attractive leaves and flowers and is widely planted as an ornamental by people unfamiliar with their edible fruit. Also the white sapote can be grown in most low elevation areas of CA and AZ without frost protection. None of the foregoing fruit trees will have the frost protection needs that mangos would have.

Is the UV too intense in higher elevations for the Guava? I'm in Southern New Mexico at 4k a wanted to grow guava

@@farmerjhemp I think you will do better with the two guava variants I described. They tolerate more frost and cooler summers than the tropical guava.

Grew it from seed. The first year it completely froze. Thought it was dead, cut it off at 3 feet. It regrew. After that initial winter shock, it doesnt freeze anymore
If you ever make a short video, I'm unsubscribing. Lol

Jay named Curry Leaf tree in this video: "What are the Top 10 Fruit Trees to grow during a food crisis? START HERE with Tier 1 fruit trees!" They are in the tier 1 group so they handle winter and summer here like champs and he states he uses them to protect more sensitive trees.

It was MISERABLE....I'm in Tucson. I lost my fig tree and just about lost my apricot but it did pull through. My mandarin dropped all it's fruit and I didn't get a one off of it. I'm just about done trying to grow fruit trees in this heat....
What part of Arizona? I am surprised that you can grow all of those.

Hi jay. I wad look at tour video and i think i saw a Spanish lime tree or gennip tree . Well if it is that tree is a male tree . Gennip trees do not need a male tree because male trees don't produce any flowers for cross pollination.
I was surprised to learn starfruit has a toxin that is bad for kidney patients who may have difficulty filtering the toxin. Also people with normal kidney function should not eat too many at one sitting.

I would hope no one is sitting down and eating 10 of any fruit at one time. Like a banana, or any other fruit, you would only typically eat 1 per day. Moderation.........too many Tylenol can damage you as well!

If a person is confused about growing and caring for any plant, perhaps they should find another hobby.
Leave it up to my luck for the one winter we get an point-for-point ideal plant killer cold snap was also the first winter (2022) I was trialing my more sensitive stuff outside. I live in the 7a tennessee/kentucky area which is a boundary for a lot of plants but last year we were graced with this little gem of a storm: -december 22, lowest amt of daylight -storm dropped minimal precipitation. No rain. Minimal snow over our town - thermometer bottomed at 2.8f. Temperatures not seen in a decade -sub-freezing and overcast for 48 hours. i had feijoas, chilean guava and brazilian araucarias as well as several asian persimmons that didn't stand a chance
