Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / WTB: Coffea arabica
« on: January 20, 2021, 10:36:36 PM »
Howdy everyone,

I'd like to purchase around 2-300 C. arabica seeds for planting.  I am particularly interested in seeds from plants that are at higher elevations or in particularly colder climates/areas. 

Thank you!

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Preferred irrigation in Orchard
« on: July 02, 2020, 10:55:54 AM »
How's it going everyone?

I am designing out an irrigation system to be implemented into my orchard.

Currently I have a lot of mature but struggling avocado trees that I intend to interplant with a lot of other subtropicals with varying water requirements.  I am currently thinking that using Net-a-fim irrigation and spiraling around the root zones/drip lines will give me the best control on the amount of water going onto individual plants.  I am also considering doing some supplemental overhead irrigation to get water on leaves, as well as to just soak areas that would otherwise not be covered.

Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? Would definitely be curious to hear what other people are doing.

Thanks

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Reviving an old Avocado Orchard
« on: June 07, 2020, 01:23:54 PM »
Howdy everyone,

I am going to be taking on the revival of about 30-40 Avocados that were planted in about 1978, but haven't been watered for 20 years until about 2 years ago.  Most of the trees are displaying some pretty gnarly trunk damage w/ bark peeling off and dead wood being apparent almost to the ground in most cases.  The current care taker has started irrigation 2 years ago but that is about all that's been done.

The trees are sprouting from cuts about 5 or 6 feet off the ground, and in some cases just coming up from the roots while a dead trunk stands above them. 

Does anyone have any suggestions on the best course of action?

I am considering stump cutting some immediately but wonder if I should wait until next spring when conditions are a little less extreme, (not very extreme, but 80* days and bright direct sun). After stump cutting I'll be grafting a bunch of new varieties on.  Currently they are all Bacon.  I'll be mulching heavily with wood chips, horse manure, and compost when they come into my posession.

Hey everyone,

Got a whole grip of Asimina triloba seeds that are from a mix of fruits that are cultivated varieties and seedlings of cultivated varieties.  All the varieties are from the KSU breeding program, Susquehana, Sunflower, etc..

Fruit was grown in Santa Clara Valley, California and I can confirm it was all delicious fruit.  Grew out seeds from last year and had fantastic germination.

10$ for 20 seeds minimum, shipping not included.
Open to negotiation on larger quantities and very open to trades.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Headed to Brazil, where do I go?
« on: June 07, 2017, 10:53:53 PM »
Hey everyone,
Headed to Brazil at the end of July for a couple of weeks and I am very interested in bringing seeds back with me. Anyone know of some nurseries, cool locations, botanists, fruit vendors or what will be fruiting around that time? I have no major plan yet so I am definitely mobile.
Thanks!
I'm definitely going to be in the Minas Gerais area for a bit, but would really love to get my hands on some cerrado species.
Mainly interested in Plinia, Myciara, Psidium, and anything else interesting.
