So Reed don't need pollinator? Do I need to cover it in my zone 9B if I planted into the ground? Will Reed be a very huge tree? Thanks

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Is Sir Prize avocado a good pollinator for Haas Avocado?
« on: July 25, 2017, 08:17:57 PM »
Hello, any expert here can help me choose which B type avocado a good pollinator for my Haas avocado tree? Sir Prize or Fuerte Avocado?

1. How far do type A & type B need to be close?
2. What's the season for Sir Prize?

I read online that for type A & type B to pollinate, they need to bloom the same time, right?

Sorry for the newbie questions.. thanks!!

Tropical Fruit Discussion / HELP: Jujube tree problems
« on: July 25, 2017, 10:53:00 AM »
Hello, anyone here knows if Li Jujube really need Lang Jujube to produce lots of fruits? I have a big Lang tree and I don't really like this type and planned on replacing it with the Sugar Cane Jujube. I have 2 Li Jujube trees.

Also, this year my Jujube trees have very soft fruits on the trees. I mean the fruits still on the trees now and when I hold onto it, it's soft and not hard or like those crunchy type like how I had it last year. Last month I have tons of fruitlets on these trees, but somehow, it dropped a lot of fruits. I deep water it every 2-3 days, but last year it watered less. Wonder if I water too much? Thanks

Thanks for the explanation Rob. The pot I bought is very small, so I would like to buy a 25-gallon pot and make 4x4' trellis in the middle like some posters on this thread.. can you tip me on what to do to not kill my plant? Can I just cut the current pot I have and then just put the entire plant onto the new pot with more potting soil?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Cut Atemoya's flowers will help tree growth?
« on: July 13, 2017, 02:34:01 AM »
Today I cut down a bunch of my atemoya's flowers as I heard some people said it will help the tree's growth. Is it true? Or it won't matter? It's a 4 foot atemoya's tree with a 1" trunk, but it has over 18 pea size fruits, so I removed most of its flowers and just leave it with 6 fruits. Am I doing anything wrong? I'm just afraid my tree will die..

« on: July 05, 2017, 10:38:07 AM »
Yes!! I finally got hand pollination right. All my atemoya trees have small fruitlets now. Hopefully it will hold as I have no idea what variety of atemoya trees I have. On the other hand, none of my cherimoya trees have any fruit yet :(.

« on: June 24, 2017, 06:20:21 PM »
Samu, so when the female flowers turn male flowers, can I still collect the pollen from the flowers that I already hand pollinated?

So, even when the female flowers turn male flower after hand pollination, it's still can be successful?

Thanks
