Do you water it? Did you add rich soil or any mulch when you planted it? They need a lot of love in the beginning. Give it lots of care (water and good nutrients/organic matter).
So I think I missed the info promised in the title of the video. I can't get my minute and a half back and still don't know how to grow miracle fruit. Absolutely lame video......
This is a video from our "How To Grow" Series, which helps INTRODUCE these plants to the world! I hope you enjoyed the video or learned something in that minute and a half. If not, that's ok too and you can go somewhere else! Oh yeah, Miracle Fruit likes acidic soil and part shade, if you needed that information to plant one. It' a very easy one to grow if you are still interested. All the best!!😀
You simply pull out (or cut) pieces from the plant and pop it in pot with soil or in the ground in the area you want to spread. You want to make sure the root "nodes " are underneath the soil.
@@urbanabundancefl thank you so much! This is similar to frog fruit which is native to the west and the southeastern United States. Seems like they both have similar propagation methods.
Hey my friend, this video is a part of our "How To Grow" series for all our crops. The goal is to get information out about the plant, growing techniques, ways to process these plants, and its benefits for ourselves and our gardens. I hope you areas excited about this plant as I am!! Here's tips on How To Grow : Cut 1 foot long branches of the plant (thicker the better) and stick it in the ground or a pot of soil! It's literally that easy 😀
Picked up a Canistel v. "Trompo" this past week, should be going in the ground this week. I'm looking forward to the fruit a few years from now. I'm going to attempt to keep mine under 15' long term through pruning. Nice find, hopefully the owners didn't mind!
Love the video! Thanks for showing us how and for providing us with where it came from and these awesome gardeners who have inspired you and their books!
I’d love a bunch of video tutorials on getting started and harvesting this kind of stuff... especially in FL it’s hard to know what will survive the heat, how much to water, how much sun things need, etc... I’ve been struggling with some plants just getting absolutely toasted where I am... great videos, can’t wait to see more!
Thank you for motivating people to grow food. We must take control of our life and not depend on anyone. Grow eat love. Eat to live. Throw away all those boxed stuff. Love. Peace
Nice work, for those who are wanting to plant please show us more of the planting, how deep, etc, and some shots of the finished bed would be fantastic thank you.
Hmmm I have eaten PART of this fruit raw many times ... the important thing to know is WHEN to eat it. If you eat too premature, it is toxic indeed. Please everyone do your research and know what you are doing before you consume anything . Eating 101 😎
Do you have a bisbul fruit there in florida ????????? This fruit smell when its ripe is so amazing but only in close range only and when its ripe the skin color turn to red like strawberry
I lived in S Fl for 50 yrs and grew all of those. I love Okinawa in stir fries but the best by itself cooked with garlic and olive oil is Longevity. I now live in the Jax area and longevity grows like a weed. Of course we haven't had frost in three yrs.
I love this man! He is a realist and a true gentleman. Find a way to meet Jack, he is an absolutely amazing farmer and he will change your views on appreciation of life!!!!
You can get cardboard at Publix. Talk to a manager at one of the stores and ask when they get their paper goods or cereal shipment. Those are the larger boxes.
