Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Seeking info on M-4 mango
« on: May 29, 2017, 02:16:36 PM »What is the growth habit of m4?
As stated in this and other posts, it was just released less than 6 months ago and no grafted trees were in existence prior to observe.
I have read. Was wondering if the growth habit of m4 mother tree is similar to LZ?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Give up on/replace this unproductive Hasya sapodilla? Or stick it out?
« on: May 24, 2017, 02:00:46 PM »Could someone please comment on the size of the sapodilla varieties that have been mentioned on this Thread in comparison to the softball sized 'Hasya'?:
'Molix:' Fruits are similar to 'Morena,' and somewhat less productive than 'Morena,' (*)
'Morena:' 'Excellent Flavor and low stone cell count'; 'Excellent Large Size sapodilla' (but generally smaller than 'Hasya'?)...'much better than 'Hasya' in production;' Way more productive than 'Hasya,' (*),
'Alano,'
'Makok,' &
'Silas Woods:' Fruits are on the smaller side. (*)
[Other varieties that may be worthy of comparison to the 'Hasya' are:]
'Prolific,' &
'Excalibur.'

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Room for 1 more avocado tree
« on: May 19, 2017, 01:14:42 AM »Spaugh:
Yeah, I'm on the west side of Ramona. Close to Highland Valley Road. I'd love to visit your yard and have you visit mine. I've only been here for almost four years. Similar to you. So, my four-year-old avocados are Reed, Lamb, Hass, Fuerte, Sir-Prize. And then I have some younger ones that have yet to produce: Pinkerton, Holiday, Sharwil.
A lot of my other trees are young too, but I have in the ground: a handful of citrus, a couple apples, apricot, pluots, nectaplum, fig, pomegranate, macadamias, persimmon, mango.
It's not a special yard yet, but I'm working on it.
pics?

No need to apologize ,Simon.
I am actually enjoying this thread with ur knowledge.
As yes, microclimate is important to grow tropical fruit trees then drainage.
I enjoy watching jake & shamus as what they reach out to the gardening community ia truly informational.
Jake may be a business-minded person, & none of that matters as what he is sharing to the community is his personal experience growing tropical fruit bearing trees. (Who are we to tell him he promotes this & that?)
Some may hate or love the guy, but that doesnt affect his success growing them. Hahaha
