Luisport: I like any seed you have to much of. anyway I be glad to send you cuttings.

Afriadoni: I think the green is called "drip of honey", its my favourite and in dry climate it gets really sweet. I can pick from different trees, they give fruit little different.

I think many indonesia species will be hard. Do you have cashew maybe? or dragon fruit?

I have cashew , big bush tree , seeds or cuttings ? I have Dragon Fruit , Annona , Jack Fruit , Mangosteen , many species of Sygizium .. Many kind of Psidium .. Katuk , herb ,

I think cashew is most interesting, maybe seeds will be enough?? And I would love dragon fruits. I have some annona and jack fruit but if you want you can send med anything

The sygizium species seems interesting but I Know to little now, can you advise me?

and the psidium also sound nice but I dont know what im locking for, Its everything or nothing in my brain

And about the fig cuttings,,, should I not wait until colder times? Or i guess in indonesia that does not matter
Here normally they do it in the winter.... How many should i send? I will cut them 20 cm and not to thick ones.

And you wanted something more?

I could also ask at my nursery if they have some cutting for me and you?

can be arrange, common black and green portugeese ones.

I can send you carob, and yellow minigueava, and pepinocuttings.

I think you are right about me, I like to give. To me giving and recieving thoose aaah and ooohs is more pleasure then eating them myself. The dream would be to create a supergarden where you only have to cut the trees from time to time, no brambles

And then when Im about to taste my last complicated fruit, a seed get stuck in my throat and I die from that. 

But also because i like to be a pionjer and eat healthier

They look very nice. But its little hard to se how big they really are.

I also have banana and hoped that some would start to fruit, cause they are getting big. but nothing yet and im little sad

Some tips?

yes, me too! and carrie!

What kind of mangos can you find in spain?

Haha, I had that song in my head just some day ago, "I cant live, if living is without you" but I didnt expect to hear it with pan flutes

That looks like a nice tank though. Thank you everyone for your input.

How far from the battery/panels can I have the pump, tank?

Hi.

I want to buy a water pump. Everything is now on self pressure. I would like to pump it like 50 meter up from the river to my house. There I have one tank but Im afraid I must built one closer to the "station". And to have battery, pump and all that in the same please, right?

Do you know anything about theese pumps, to me its a jungle and I get little stressed and make stupid chooses.

Hope somebody can give me advice or input.

Also how to build a tank. Is it possible to do with clay?
I made one with concrete and bricks but its leaking a little.

Hallo, I had some cashews that died last year and I didnt really knew why. I suspected brutal transplanting so this time I was more carefull. I notice it was sprouting and planted it in a pot and it came beautiful at first. Then suddenly it looked sad and after 2-3 days it was dead. More or less the same way the others did. So,, I need help because Im waiting for more seeds tpo come and I dont want to spoil them.

Could it be to much sun? I put I behind a bigger tree so the seedling had strong sun but only half a day
Could it be to much water? I maybe have a tendensy to water stuff to much 
Could it be some drought problem?
Could it still be a transplating problem? this time I will put them in pot directly to ovoid brutal handling.

I water it just as I water other seedlings and the ones that comes up normally grow on nice.

Tell me all about taking care of small cashew babies 

My wife is extending our house like that. She makes a hole in the ground and pour water in it. Then she tramps the claysoil togehter with straw and maybe some sand. Then when its mixed properly she takes small pieces and put them on the wall like a brick. Everyday you can make 20 cm before it has to dry. There is other ways if somebody want to built it faster. Like making bricks first and dry them in the sun or to make a form and pour the mix inside.

Its a lot of work but if everything is allready there to built then why not. I tell you that it holds really really good but you know that allready from the digging right 

AHHHH , this mango is the kind God is growing in heaven. Oki, havent tasted all this nice strains you talk about here but this honey mango is really really good. Do you know if the seeds are polyembryotic?
