nematodes on guava
« on: December 21, 2017, 06:13:11 AM »
My Chonburi-white guava was not happy, it has many bubbles on the root.

So i killed him but i have many more guava tree's, will they also have nematode?

I put many shrimps and crabs in blender and will feed it to them. Is that enough?

What other fruit tree's can have nemotades?

Shrimp shells are good for growing pathogenic microbes, after they digest the shells then huge population turns on the chtin http://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0LEVu6kwjtaXT0A43YnnIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTByOHZyb21tBGNvbG8DYmYxBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzcg--/RV=2/RE=1513894693/RO=10/RU=http%3a%2f%2fipm.ucanr.edu%2fPMG%2fr280200111.html/RK=2/RS=Rmzx70Q7fmYn8Tj7sDAoXLaOpjI-

If you have a neem tree you can make teas and drench soil with it as a insect growth regulant.
Also if their are healthy wild guavas might make good rootstock

I just tilled in a yard of bulk "potting mix" from the landscape supply and a wheelbarrow full of crab shell into a raised bed I will be planting figs in. Hopefully that does the trick. Beneficial nematodes and certain fungi also feed on root knot nematodes.

What do i need from neemtree? I know one not far away. But is neemoil also good? Is easy to buy for me.

I did soildrench with woodvinegar some weeks ago, the worms came out...can that also kill nematodes? Now worms are back, many of them.

Crab and shrimp is easy for me, put all shells in blender with water and throw on soil.
But will that sure help? I want to put new tree in that soil, is very good soil, expensive.

Beneficial nematodes i don't know where to buy, is there online shop?

Are you in Thailand? You would have to find a close lab that breeds the beneficial nematodes if that even exists there. They often die in transport so the closer and fresher the better. The shells feed a chitin eating bacteria that either consume or repel nematodes. They are also good fertilizer. I normally add crab shell to all my potting mix and top dress the yard with it.

Yes Thailand, i put the shells on top of the soil, my tree's are in containers.

But i now know how they got in the container, i used natural soil from a special place...loam soil.

Now i have special soil from Germany in a bag, that will be sterili i think so i will use that and wash the container very good.

But i have many tree's in that natural soil, so i need to eat many shrimps and put that on top of soil, or do we need to mix it in the soil?

I also will grow french marigold around my tree's in ground, hope they go away but then they go to another fruittree.

Here is no lab, i have never heard of it. But i can use German soil with sand mixed, i think that's good but no cheap. Will do that for rare tree's, not for guava. I have more guava's, don't care much for chonburi white, is small fruit but taste good.

Any part of the tree chopped up as much possible. Then soak in 5 gallons warm water for few days, and water in the plant.Has to be repeated like once a month ,This is better for short term plants like vegetables,really
should find resistance guava for rootstock.

Okay thank you, i will try that.

I read that woodvinegar 1:10 mix with water also kills them, will do that for today.
