jakfruit etiquette says... I potted all mine up in citrus pot mix, pH about 6 to 6.5, (there was lime in the mix, to get that pH). They seemed to do fine. Not sure if you researched their distrubution in the wild you may find they prefer certain soil types, forest types, this might provide clues. I'm in Vic and they dont seem particularly sensitive. | About the Author jakfruit etiquette vic 15th January 2015 9:27am #UserID: 5133 Posts: 915 View All jakfruit etiquette's Edible Fruit Trees |

salsify says... Thanks jackfruit etiquette. It's growing fine - but it's slowly gone quite pale over the 6 months (approx.) that it's been in the ground...and this is not a problem I usually have around here... Only the kwai muk has been as 'touchy' - and some iron chelates seems to have fixed that... I should get off my butt and check the pH of it's surrounding soil tho - just to make sure... ;-) I am concerned it might have been the sheep manure I used when planting it (not much - but it was soggy stuff from the abbatoirs - so not great) This is the plant - which is in a shady spot - protected from wind and our harsh WA summer sun - by overhead canopy - like in a forest..? Facing west... Our winters are quite damp and cold - regularly reach 1-5 oC and some of my subtropicals get the winter yellows here - with the cold soil... They have all perked up now - and I'd like to see this one go a deeper green before winter too - I don't want to lose it if I can help it..
