Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Re: Fruit Lover's Nursery Seed and Scions
« on: September 30, 2013, 09:19:06 AM »Hello Oscar,
What is you favorite fruit from Pouteria ?
Pouteria is a large genus with lots of species. I've only had a very few, but of the ones i've had i'd say my favorite is moist type of lucuma. I also like the Ross sapote and the Phillipine pointed canistel.
Is there any chance to get moist Lucuma seeds from you ?

I highly recommend Sunan, he is a very good seller.
Any other Artocarpus you have ?, and as Mike said, It will be better to add a picture.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Let's Talk (edible) Artocarpus
« on: September 26, 2013, 12:31:43 PM »Just wanted to add a note about A. odoratissimus: I've lost several of my seedlings now (hopefully not all). At first I thought it was just a fluke but after it happened to several I did a root check. Root color: Brown. Aka, possible root rot. Since most of my seedlings are treated in the same manner and are fine (including jackfruit), I can only conclude that A. odoratissimus looks to be more sensitive to root rot than most .
Just wanted to pass that on.
Add 1/2 inch of sand over the potting soil. The sand should work as a natural water dripper and a moisture preserver. Your seedling will never get flooded again (Don't forget to water from the top only).
You may also soak your seeds in metalaxyl + copper oxychloride mixture before planting.

Nice to meet you Luis. It is wonderful to speak with a nice person like you. I hope you succeed and enjoy some of the delicious tropical fruits that you have.
BTW, why don't you try to grow Kwai Muk ?. I think it should grow fine in your area.

Artocarpus hypargyraeus (kwai muk)
Kwai muk bears abundant, plum-sized fruits that have a sweet, citrusy taste. Reportedly cold hardy to around 26F.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Theobroma cacao ssp. cacao (aka, Criollo variety)
« on: September 12, 2013, 10:37:02 AM »No, I missed that thread - thanks!Definitely let us know how it compares to Forastero.
And thanks for the link, EvilFruit! Looks like I've got a new seed order to make, haha
I bought eugenia uniflora , eugenia brasiliensis and Diospyros digyna seeds from them. The germination rate was nearly 100% for e.uniflora and e.brasiliensis but Diospyros digyna was a total failure (0%
). Maybe it was my mistake by over watering... I really don't know.Anyway, I think it is better to buy the whole pod instead of seeds .The seedpod should help to protect the seeds from fungus (correct me if I'm wrong).
