Tropical Fruit Discussion / Is there a Mechanical / Industrial engineer in this group?

This is not a truly fruit related topic, but in a round about way it is for taking care of them. Hope this is an appropriate post for here!

I have a concept and could use help from someone experienced in designing the necessary specifications and make the design a reality. The project is to retrofit a truck bed with a pneumatic conveyor, and make applying compost/mulch a little less cumbersome. Here is an illustration of the concept -




I appreciate any pointers on designing a centrifugal blower based pneumatic material handling rig that can help move compost/mulch to the trees using a hose. Happy to share some of my research and/or conceptualized components I have in mind to build such a unit. Thanks for your time and directions. Cheers.

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Wanted: Grafted or Air layered Guava Trees
« on: February 02, 2020, 11:02:08 AM »
I planted guava trees from LaVerne / Durling nursery few years ago, and majority of the trees succumbed to gophers. Yikes!. Any case this was before I was introduced to the world of guavas and the better tasting ones written about in these threads. I am looking to replant guavas this year, and would like to purchase grafted/airlayered trees of good tasting varieties. Desired fruit characteristics - soft seeds, good flavor, crunchy fruits, fragrant fruits with flavor.

I paid $15 for seedlings and $21 for grafted guava trees. Ideally would like to stay within this price range. Based on availability and pricing I am interested in purchasing 10-30 trees in a variety. Local / SoCal pickup preferred. If the fruits are in season, and available for tasting/purchase it will be a marvelous bonus.

If you are able to help, please let me know more about the guava and cost quantity details. Thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Priya
