Wow a Lucangosteen Anonymous Support Group, can I joint?😄
Here is 2014 seedling class a year ago!
They were grown in partial sun in the juvenile stage where I find there growth more robust. As you can see seedling grown on pure recycle mulch on worm cast, seaweed & age urine diet in a large diameter outperform those grown in a smaller pot with Miracle Grow Moist retention peat moss mix. As you can see there are great genetic variations even in one class from 2014.
both yearling 2014'was in a normal 3 gallon pot & a three gallon aeropot with peat moss soil mix & osmocote!
2011 seedling in Ground, it appears this is a natural dwarf.
worm caste
It appears the larger the diameter in its nursery pot and fed with organic substrate & organic fertilizer, it outperform the chemical & custom peat moss soiless mix. Grown in our sandy soil, seeds were attack by grubs and seedling growth were slow or not as robust as in pot culture during their first three years juvenile phase.
Third year they should be plant out at this state they will explode in full Sun. Luc point out they love Moisture and I notice fastest growth during cooler weather as compare of summer heat here in Boca Raton, Florida! I should think these guys should be more happier in the Central Florida than here in South Florida base upon my limited experience so far with Lucangosteen! I recall hearing a guy in Texas had his flowering fifth year; wondering did fruit set?😃
