The garden look very untidy n need pruning all the plants.
@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley Год назад
Looks is not a top priority of mine. Some people put too much emphasis on outer appearance. Specific to cherimoya and other tropical fruit trees, there is a strategy to pruning them. The trees do definitely appreciate their trunk being shaded by the “untidied” foliage in 115° sun.

Great Video! Everything is looking so awesome. 🤩 I've had amazing luck growing cherimoya from seed or young seedlings and they take the cold and the heat just fine and grow like weeds but for whatever reason my first cherimoya plant that was actually a grafted variety(Knight variety) gave up this winter it started defoliating as the weather got colder and never bounced back so eventually I was just watering a dead stick for a while i pruned the dead wood off to the pain trunk which still had some green but it never grew back and eventually it was completely dead and rotted out to the point I just pull the whole thing out of the soil with no struggle quite safe but I did think it got root rot since I planted it from a 5 gallon container into a 24 gallon all at once so to much wet soil all the time combined with a cold winter might've don e it. I've never tried Durian but it looks so delicious I can't wait to try some in the near future. Where did you purchase the Durian? 😅

Great video - happy father's day to you! I watched a video elsewhere on youtube that claimed if you grow cherimoya densely, with minimal pruning around the interior and flowers, they will actually self pollinate pretty well! That may explain your front yard fruit set. Couple questions: 1) Is there a foolproof way of telling if you successfully hand pollinated the flower? I have been hand-pollinating for the past month and while I thought I was properly pollinating, I don't think I've actually gotten any fruits that are going to stay on. This is a first-year transplant that has fruited at the nursery. I noticed the leaves are also very slow to grow this year. 2) How often do you advise watering them here in California 9B during flowering/fruiting season? Especially as our temperatures start to hit the high 90s/100s every day.
@melbournesubtropicfruits9474
@melbournesubtropicfruits9474 2 года назад
Running a misting spray inside top of tree ive heard can raise humidity - i get some fruit set in rainy conditions too
@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley 2 года назад
Thank you. Once hand pollinated, you’ll have to wait a few days to see if the flower continues to stay or if it shrivels and drops off. That’s really the best method. Specific to your tree, once transplanted, this process sets the tree back as it tries to acclimate to its new soil and environment. For this reason, even relatively matured trees will skip a year or two if set in a new environment. I would continue to water it enough to ensure the top soil is moist to the touch.
@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley 2 года назад
This is true. I used this method on my lychee trees.

@TropicalCentralValley

Summer sun is mostly a nonissue, however, if not properly hydrated during the 110°F to 115°F days, the new foliage may burn. As for the rain, I’m not clear on the concerns.

@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley 2 года назад
Thank you. Your yard too looks awesome. Here’s a breakdown of my yearly water usage along with the costs (in CCF - One Hundred Cubic Feet. 1 CCF is equal to 748 gallons of water): 6/2021 21 CCF $46.91 7/2021 23 CCF $34.74 8/2021 33 CCF $74.15 9/2021 24 CCF $50.21 10/2021 29 CCF $63.84 11/2021 17 CCF $36.51 12/2021 8 CCF $21.60 1/2022 8 CCF $21.60 2/2022 8 CCF $21.60 3/022 8 CCF $21.60 4/2022 13 CCF $30.03 5/2022 22 CCF $47.20 6/2022 19 CCF $41.68 About 6 months ago, I did install an automatic bubbler irrigation system. This should help to cut back on my water schedule due to the small amount of water used, but more frequently. I currently have it programmed to water every other hour for 3 minutes per session. I may increase this once the weather gets warmer. My water usage also includes general household use. I can confidently say I’m using way less water now with trees than when I had lawn.
@EnlightenmentGarden
@EnlightenmentGarden 2 года назад
@@TropicalCentralValley Thanks for sharing the details. Impressive efficiency on usage and cost! I used 4 times that amount in the last month irrigating plants and my bill was $350!. My yard is bigger but I'm doing more of the deep water approach 1-2 times a week because I always heard that was best to establish deep roots versus surface roots. Now I'm skeptical because you are able to support huge trees on more shallow frequent watering. Is the 3 min watering every other hour something new now that you have established trees or have you always practiced the short frequent irrigation style in summer? For tropicals it makes sense because in their native climate they are used to frequent showers versus no water for days and then flooding. I'd sure like to cut down use if I can.
@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley 2 года назад
In the beginning, I too practiced deep watering of my trees, however, since I found Gary Matsuoka’s RU-vid channel, he has taught me quite a bit about the growing requirements of fruit trees, particularly surrounding soil. He makes many great points, many of which are based on science. The light bulb moment for me was the fact that 95% of a tree’s root system are near the first 2 feet of soil. Specific to my situation, my city water is relatively free of “containments” so my watering method works for me. I know your area may have higher level of salt which deep watering may help to rinse out.
@EnlightenmentGarden
@EnlightenmentGarden 2 года назад
@@TropicalCentralValley Thanks for sharing your knowledge and the other channel! I'm going to try it out for my tropical area because it does make sense after digging out 6+ year old trees recently. I saw the roots that matter are mostly in the first 1' despite all of the water. I have a feeling I'm wasting water by flooding and it may even be unhealthy for the trees. We do get some rain events in summer that do a better job flushing out salts than city water.

Should I choose grafted or seedling? Is grafted more dwarf and early to start fruiting?
@TropicalCentralValley
@TropicalCentralValley 2 года назад
Grafted trees will shave several years off and allow the tree to fruit much quicker as the scion is matured wood. Grafted trees can be of dwarf varieties, and in fact, this is one of the primary benefits of having a grafted tree.

My cherimoya tree is not producing flowers this year. In previous years, July and August were when I would hand pollinate the flowers to get fruit in November. This 25-year-old tree has been doing well and appears healthy with beautiful leaves. But this summer, as of July 25th, I have not seen any flowers on the tree to pollinate.What could have happened to cause it not to flower this year?
