sternus1 says... yeah the mother tree is dropping all of its leaves right now, but this one has new shoots (which are admittedly drooping right now, I should probably cut them off...think I will). Sure is tough...I cannot believe anything could survive in that soil, it looks as though it isn't far off becoming solid brick | About the Author sternus1 Australia 9th December 2013 12:43pm #UserID: 8314 Posts: 1318 View All sternus1's Edible Fruit Trees |

sternus1 says... omfg Did you notice if they were grafted at or where they seedlings? Haven't forgotten about that fig, either. Waiting for further root development, as I've come to realize that without this the risk of shock death ( when removed from greenhouse)decreases considerably the bigger the rootball is. I've lost a few developing cuttings by having been deceived by the amount of foliage being put out by them, I've figured out that this doesn't count for much in the end. Some pics of where the one I've promised to you is at incoming later this afternoon, will be heading to the property today. s s | About the Author sternus1 Australia 15th January 2014 1:27pm #UserID: 8314 Posts: 1318 View All sternus1's Edible Fruit Trees |

sternus1 says... Carambola are a must have fruit in my opinion. Pretty much the only downside is that they can be a breeding ground for fruit fly due to uncollected fruit owing to sheer abundance, but if you have the wherewithal to prune off unwanted fruit this isn't a problem. Giant Siam is probably the best cv. | About the Author sternus1 Australia 22nd January 2015 8:56pm #UserID: 8314 Posts: 1318 View All sternus1's Edible Fruit Trees |

Yoda on DMT says... Biggest I've seen wouldn't have been far off being as big as a 2l milk bottle. Fruit was wonky from either an excess of fertilizer or Some TE. Will have to move mine I think, it's not doing well. I don't know why this is, but whenever I use cypress pine mulch for fruit trees they grow much, much more slowly. Doesn't seem to happen with the crappy forest mulch. Someone should look into this. | About the Author Yoda on DMT Trafalmadore 4th April 2015 9:16am #UserID: 11548 Posts: 78 View All Yoda on DMT's Edible Fruit Trees |
