Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: All my cherimoya seedlings are dying, what can I do to save them?
« on: October 22, 2019, 10:01:10 PM »
I'm more worried about cold up here, especially at night. For seedlings how much cold can they tolerate?

They were having issues before I added any fertilizer, they were in normal cactus/citrus mix (second photo was taken before adding any fertilizer)

I've tried fertilizing and spraying with copper antifungal with no luck. Very sad about this, is there anything else that I should be trying? They are currently indoors by a window so it shouldn't be due to cold or wind. Some examples of what the leaves look like:

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Best/most interesting avocados for top working in SoCal
« on: September 30, 2019, 01:49:47 PM »
Have a large Haas tree but wanted to try topworking part of it - what are the best cultivars I could use for this? Bonus points if it is very different from Haas (in a good way).

Just food for thought:  ask on the Hawaii tropical fruit growers Maui chapter fb page for tips.

I didn’t think there was much on Maui then all of a sudden my friend is posting up pics of keledang seeds he got from fruit from a guy on Maui.   So u gotta do some research!

Thanks, I will monitor that. Unfortunately I'd need to pay for a membership to ask questions about what I should be looking for, but hopefully people post some cool stuff

Tropical Fruit Discussion / How long does it take Monstera Deliciosa to ripen after being picked?
« on: September 09, 2019, 08:10:21 PM »
I have had them in plastic bags for a week and the scales haven't started falling off yet. Not sure if I picked them underripe, or if I need to wait longer.

Temperate Fruit Discussion / Topworking apricot tree, looking for suggested cultivars to graft (SoCal)
« on: September 04, 2019, 09:29:41 PM »
What varieties do people recommend? This is in Santa Barbara region. Rootstock is old apricot that doesn't produce anymore. I'm new to grafting so less finicky varieties are a plus. I enjoy pluots and nectarines the most but I am not sure what is compatible with apricot.

« on: July 09, 2019, 08:27:20 PM »
Plant is in partial shade, just put it in sun for the picture. Soil is kept moist. This is in Santa Barbara region which has been a bit cold and foggy recently. What could be causing this? What should I do to remedy?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Cherimoya Flower Aroma vs. Fruit Flavor
« on: June 17, 2019, 11:24:02 PM »
I feel like an issue with that is if the tree is old enough to have flowers, fruit is only a year or so off at most (maybe you don't let it set fruit the first time it flowers) and then you can just try the fruit. If all you need is a leaf smell, the iteration time is a lot faster - don't need to wait for flowers.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Minimum cherimoya size before planting in the ground?
« on: May 31, 2019, 02:48:02 PM »
I have a Honeyhart in a five gallon pot, I am wondering if it is ok to plant it in the ground yet or whether I should keep it in a pot longer. Which will lead to a more successful, healthy plant?

If so, which one should I get? Looking for something self fertile / lower maintenance / easy to care for.
