I live in West Paso Robles California. Zone 8b ? elevation 2000. When we moved here ten + years ago. Every nursery tells me you cannot grow bougainvillea, citrus or avocados in Paso Robles Ca. After I looking online on weather history of Paso Robles Ca. I disagree with the local nursery and big box store advice. I went ahead and planted citrus, bougainvillea & avocados after looking into the history of the weather in Paso Robles. I have all kinds of mature citrus, lime, key lime, bougainvillea & avocados trees plus many others sub tropical trees planted on my property and all of them survived and come back every year. Plus producing fruits. Last year I decided to grow Atemoya & Cherimoya with hand pollination. and I was successful growing them and producing fruits. Today I was at home depot in Atascadero Ca. and they have Strawberry Papaya/Solo Sunrise, Mexican and Brazil papaya. After reading the label it say Strawberry papaya could survive temperature down to 20 F the other two varieties only to 30 F. I decided to purchase 4 strawberry papaya trees to tried it out. Time will tell if it will survive the winter in Paso or not? Will document on papaya tree and will post video if trees survive the winter & fruits. I find most of time the person planting the trees have not done enough homework on the plants, weather and soil plus watering & fertilization. That is why the tree die.

@thenoobgardener I would try pruning away short, undesirable branches. You may want to tip about 1 inch from the long branches. Make sure your fertilizer is powerful enough for such a bulky plant. I would fertilize more often during fruiting season--about twice a month. Make sure your water is adequate too. Several years ago, I had an issue with lethargically growing plants. My friend, Vin, also grows DF. He told me that he sprinkles about a tablespoon of 10-10-10 around each flower pot every couple of weeks and gets abundant growth and flowers. I tried his method and got the same results.

I grow Nam Doc Mai but in a much different environment. Here is my suggestions. Even though you soil looks pretty good I would replace it with a 50/50 mix of Black Gold Organic potting soil and cinder. Mangoes need to drain well. You must line the hole with dolomite lime and sprinkle lime on the surface when you plant it. Try Neptune organic grow fertilizer. Once you see growth, feel free to use miracle grow around the drip line( the kind you mix with water) once in a while, but the Neptune is better, just expensive. For sure you need to kill the mole. Your soil needs to drain well, so keep it watered. If it's hot and dry, a light watering every other day may by in order until it is established. Good luck. I hate to see mangoes dying off. If can, buy a potted mango. Also, plant some seeds and the graft them after a year or two. I have no real experience with bare root stock, but if a tree was growing in a totally different environment it may not like being relocated, especially it it was removed from all of it's soil.

Hello! Thanks for the video. Do you happen to know the variety name in English for the Vietnamese sugar apples variety- mang cau dai- chewy and large not mushy?
I live in West Paso Robles California. Zone 8b ? elevation 2000. When we moved here ten + years ago. Every nursery tells me you cannot grow bougainvillea, citrus or avocados in Paso Robles Ca. After I looking online on weather history of Paso Robles Ca. I disagree with the local nursery and big box store advice. I went ahead and planted citrus, bougainvillea & avocados after looking into the history of the weather in Paso Robles. I have all kinds of mature citrus, lime, key lime, bougainvillea & avocados trees plus many others sub tropical trees planted on my property and all of them survived and come back every year. Plus producing fruits. Last year I decided to grow Atemoya & Cherimoya with hand pollination. and I was successful growing them and producing fruits. Today I was at home depot in Atascadero Ca. and they have Strawberry Papaya/Solo Sunrise, Mexican and Brazil papaya. After reading the label it say Strawberry papaya could survive temperature down to 20 F the other two varieties only to 30 F. I decided to purchase 4 strawberry papaya trees to tried it out. Time will tell if it will survive the winter in Paso or not? Will document on papaya tree and will post video if trees survive the winter & fruits. I find most of time the person planting the trees have not done enough homework on the plants, weather and soil plus watering & fertilization. That is why the tree die.
Nice, good luck with your trees.
Hi betty, I live in santa maria and I bought 2 strawberry papayas at lowes! We are zone 10 down here now!
I like your trellis set up. Bitter melon seeds are hard to sprout. I usually clip a tiny bit of the shell, careful not to damage the embryo, wrap it in wet paper towel placed in a zip lock. I then place it somewhere warm, usually on my kitchen counter. After a few days it sprouts.
I forget about that method. I just bought some new seeds. Got 5 in the ground, I’ll try the paper towel method with the rest.
Tomatoes 🍅 look great 👍🏽
Thanks. Should be or else, return n refund. 😅
What are your fertilization and pruning procedures? Adjusting these may increase your fruit production.
Fertilizes every 6 weeks n no prune yet this season. I was thinking of pruning them a bit to stimulate growth. I hardly got any new growth this season so far on my red flesh.
@thenoobgardener I would try pruning away short, undesirable branches. You may want to tip about 1 inch from the long branches. Make sure your fertilizer is powerful enough for such a bulky plant. I would fertilize more often during fruiting season--about twice a month. Make sure your water is adequate too. Several years ago, I had an issue with lethargically growing plants. My friend, Vin, also grows DF. He told me that he sprinkles about a tablespoon of 10-10-10 around each flower pot every couple of weeks and gets abundant growth and flowers. I tried his method and got the same results.
Nice, I will give that a try. Could be that I’m not feeding enough.
.
If that’s the only jujube tree you have and none of your nearby neighbors have any jujube trees, then it can’t be a Lang. Lang needs a pollinizer in order to set fruit.
I see, it's was the only one in my yard. Fruits are getting big already this year so I'll wait and see what they look like when ripened.
Is the soil you used from Home Depot full of wood chip and organic matter? Gary from Laguna hills nursery recommends not to mix your native soil with anything organic especially composted material, i.e. bagged potting soil. He recommends if you must, then you should mix sand with your native soil to improve drainage. Home Depot has this all purpose sand which is garden safe.
Yes, homedepot soil. I do have left over sands so I'll add it on my next Mango.
Nice content! you don’t wait for the cutting to callous over?
No need. Soil is pretty well drained. 5 years ago, I waited, but not anymore. 😅
Very nice trellis!
Thank you
I grow Nam Doc Mai but in a much different environment. Here is my suggestions. Even though you soil looks pretty good I would replace it with a 50/50 mix of Black Gold Organic potting soil and cinder. Mangoes need to drain well. You must line the hole with dolomite lime and sprinkle lime on the surface when you plant it. Try Neptune organic grow fertilizer. Once you see growth, feel free to use miracle grow around the drip line( the kind you mix with water) once in a while, but the Neptune is better, just expensive. For sure you need to kill the mole. Your soil needs to drain well, so keep it watered. If it's hot and dry, a light watering every other day may by in order until it is established. Good luck. I hate to see mangoes dying off. If can, buy a potted mango. Also, plant some seeds and the graft them after a year or two. I have no real experience with bare root stock, but if a tree was growing in a totally different environment it may not like being relocated, especially it it was removed from all of it's soil.
Wow, thanks for the detailed suggestions. I’ll give that a try next year on my next mango.
Thank you!
Hi, How long does your tree take to blood after you use that fertilizer? Thanks
It took about a month after the foliage spray and water increase for buds to come out.
Please talk about the papaya in the back ground, very short with a lot of fruits, thank you
The papaya videos are on my channel somewhere. 😅
Sir, can we polinate flowers that not open yet? not female form yet. Thx Sir.
No, I’ve tried before and it did not work.
Thx Sir
Yea g we in two totally different parts of Southern Cali 😅
Yea…..
Why my dragon flower have no pollen?
I’m not sure. First time hearing and have never seen a flower with no pollens. It could be a special variety and needs cross pollination.
The best video ❤
Thanks
I've read that Jackfruit can bear fruit in containers but have never actually seen one. I recently purchased a Cheena and plan to keep it in a pot. It is much smaller than your Golden Nugget and only has a single trunk with no side branches. It has not grown a single millimeter or any new leaves, but the original leaves are firm and green.
Nice, it's good to hear that it can fruit in a pot. Good luck to both of us.
I have 6 pots that look just like yours and only one fruit I live in Southern California it’s my first one 3rd year I move them in the garage to get them away from the cold in winter I hope the fruit takes its day 3 after pollination and I hope I get more thanks for the video
Good luck, Dragon Fruit needs a lot of sunlight to produce.
@@thenoobgardener what if the sun is too strong to whewr it starts melting the flesh and it rots down to the core what do I do then do you still think it needs a lot of sunlight then ??
@@23dannyt Then maybe a sun sail right over it to shade the mid day sun. I'm in Socal and mine are under the sun all day without shades. My red flesh does get sun burn here and there. I prune it when it happens if I want my canopy to look good or leave it, the inner core is still there so it's still alive. They grow quick so I wouldn't stress too much. Anyhow, dragon fruit needs lots of sunlight to bud and reproduce.
@@thenoobgardener dam I’m 4000 feet high so cal idk what I’m doing wrong Mann I give them all the nutrients I water them not to little not too much it’s such a head scratcher I don’t know how to get it to fruit for nothing year 3 I’ll post on my channel I have this obsession to bring this tropical fruit to the high desert but it’s been real trouble some always new grown but hard to get flowers if I get them they usually Abbort I had my first Vietnam white flower and it aborted idk why , like a week after pollination it was green and just lost its mojo I guess I have too many varieties in big pots too stop now but it’s just sad that it fell off today I really thought it was about to get a fruit this time it was looking promising and it aborted I try so so hard I guess I gotta try harder . It sucks seeing everyone pop Off with it and I have multiple plants that are 2-300 pound n 25 gallon pots with trellis I fertilize with bloom granulated and fertilizer, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong such a struggle in the high desert Victorville 😭I will do it successfully one day
It is probably a Kari variety if it is very sweet. The one I saw you try that you said was sour looked like it was green. I'm happy for you that your fruit is sweet.
It is. It needs to be super yellow to be ready. It got a little sweet toward the end of the season.
Can we prune like that in the middle of summer? TIA.
Not sure who the like came from, but is that a "yes" to my question?
@@cuongha2531 Yes, I responded yesterday by YT did not save my response. You can prune it anytime really. If you're doing it in the middle of Summer, maybe prune 1/3 of what you would do in the Spring max. Also note that new fruits set won't be ready until April/May the following year.
@@thenoobgardener Ok, thanks! I live in Texas and we've been getting 1-2 day freezes here late winter so I guess the fruits won't survive through that anyway.
@@cuongha2531 I’d still try. Won’t hurt. 😅
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences. I will try this on one of my atemoya.
Kari variety is supposed to be the sweetest variety. Wait until they get ripe/yellow color and see if they get sweet or sweeter. Supposedly Asian people like the sour starfruit. If you have never grafted anything before try practice grafting something you can get free or cheap. Thanks man. I have some starfruit trees that I grew from seed and I plan on buying some kari variety scions/budwood and grafting them onto what I have.
The time lapse to show it's not just theory is great!
That's a gorgeous tree! My sugar apple had some die back on a main branch as well and the new growth just looks so young. It's producing minimal buds on the other main branch, like one at a time and not overlapping, tried to cross-pollinate, but it's not setting. Will keep trying. Thanks for sharing!
Good luck with your tree. Sometimes at the beginning of the season, it’s harder for the buds to set.
Beautiful trees! Of your atemoyas, which would you say is your favorite, best tasting? I recently picked up my first atemoya, African Pride (the nursery did not have any more AP2). It came with many buds, but i don't get a chance to pollinate them until the evening time. Hoping some will set 🙏Thank you for sharing.
AP is a solid tree and is properly my fav ATM. Good luck with your tree!
Can you use polen from 1 tree to other trees? Ibeg you pardon,my english is bad. Thx Sir.❤
Yes, cherimoya, atemoya, sugar apple. You can cross pollinate them all.
What I am having fruiting right now is sugar apple and I start having interest in cherimoya and atemoya couple months ago I have a question for you. If I use the pollen of cherimoya , pollinating to sugar apple tree, and the fruit set, I will call this fruit A, if I use the seed of fruit A to germinate new tree, and it has fruit, I will call this fruit B. Will fruit B have the flavor and texture as fruit A? Hope you will understand my question
@@dylanlandis493 I have not tried it so I don’t know the answer to your question. We do know that sugar apple is true to seed, meaning fruits from a germinated seed will taste like the mother plant. However, cherimoya is not, so I’m not sure with this combination. What I do know is, if you use atemoya or cherimoya pollens to pollinate a sugar apple, the fruit will look like a sugar apple. So, in that essence, fruit B may taste exactly like fruit A.
@@thenoobgardener thank you
Note to self: DO NOT HARD PRUNE MY LONGAN AFTER HARVEST. 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for that tip! Actually, I’m only on my first season with a year old grafted Kohala, and I just posted a video to ask what mine was doing. Apparently it’s flowering. 😂 I gotta do research on this tree, lol. Have a blessed day! ❤
@@SoxInTheGarden good luck with your tree!
So, did the sticks survive?
No, unfortunately, the tree was already dead so the branch was not alive when I tried to root it.
@@thenoobgardener too bad. I recently put several sticks in pots, so I’m waiting to see if any of them take root. It’s only a week and a half, so it’s early still.
Good luck! I’ll try again next year. My new tree is still too small.
Wow it takes a sleep of faith to prune this aggressively... I did a heavy prune on my lemon tree and it hasn't let out fruit in two years! Kind of scared to prune this much.. Is this also done to keep the tree a manageable size? Thanks
Yes to keep it at manageable size. It did great last season after the prune. Check out my latest video on it. This season I did not prune as much bc parts of the tree died over the winter.
Thanks for the additional information on how to pollinate. I just did some flowers yesterday. I have one plant I picked up at a box store on clearance a couple years ago that was without an information tag. No one knew the type it was. I only ever heard of yellow or purple colored ones. Last week mine made an orange color one that kinda resembled a big long apricot. Come to find out I have a granadilla. Never heard of it but it was very sweet and had no sourness to it at all.
NICE! I would love to try different varieties but I just don't have space for them all, nor spend the money to get one :)
Where do you live?
@@EffectivePickyEatersSolutions ? I’m in Huntington Beach, CA.

How could guava die on you? They grow easily from seeds and I weed them out because they get to be too many
Good question. I’m as dumbfounded as you are. Could be a bad airlayerd branch, who knows. Regardless, my new guava is looking good with lots of new growth.😅
Nice video. Is it good to water it daily after it fruits?
I water my tree once a week. As long as the soil is moist and no standing water, it shouldn’t matter how often you water it.
Thank you for a very clear video with helpful information
