I have rooted them in straight perlite that was getting misted multiple times daily. I also used rooting hormone on the cuttings themselves, and it took a really long time to take.  Don't remember on success rates, but they are a slow start for sure.

Tropical Vegetables and Other Edibles / Re: Garlic
« on: March 20, 2019, 08:50:29 PM »
I'm going on my second year of growing garlic. Everyone whose gotten some says its the best garlic they've had.  I buy my bulbs from Filaree garlic farm and usually get a variety pack.  Definitely worth growing every year as it seems to be about ready to harvest right when summer veggies are ready to be planted.

Had some pretty insano sweet basil flavored Casimiroa sp. from giant old trees outside of Atitlan Organics in Tzununa Guatemala. Lots of big old growth Casimiroa in Guatemala, definitely worth exploring and collecting scions from out there!

Temperate Fruit Buy, Sell, & Trade / Re: Does anybody know where I can buy Duchesnea indica x Rubus caesius Hybrid?
« on: February 27, 2019, 01:08:31 AM »
Does this even exist?

I don't think they are closely enough related to hybridize.

The seedlings i got from Hawaii are a couple months old. The plants from Forest Farm appear to maybe be 6 years old?

Haha nice! I'm from Redwood city. Can always trade scion wood depending on which one of us gets a female.  I also have a couple of seedlings from a supposedly bisexual M. rubra from hawaii. I found a white tag with an ODate at 4/16/2012, which makes me thinnk they may have been propagated in 2012?  Seems crazy, although they are a pretty decent size.

I snagged the last of what they had, sorry guys! I ordered 4 (plants not sexed) and noticed they disappeared from the website after ordering. 

Thanks for pointing it out shane.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: SF Bay Area Tropical Fruit Experiment

Hey guys. I am way overdue for an update video. If I could sum it up, the subtropicals have done ok but nowhere near their best. I don’t think it’s worth growing trees that putter along and struggle to produce any fruit. If I were going to stay in the Bay Area I would probably keep the cherimoyas and jaboticabas and replace the rest with figs, white sapote and other proven plants. Anyway, the conclusion of the “experiment” is that I’m moving to the Big Island of Hawaii so I can grow tropical fruit for real.

Oh daaang! Your making the move for real! Have an amazing time Joe!

Try looking into Korean Natural Farming and rebuilding populations of indigenous microorganisms.  All about creating healthy ecosystems above and below soil level.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: What type of pest control do you use?
« on: November 14, 2018, 03:22:44 PM »
I have planted a lot of native annual wildflowers that have ecological function the beneficial insects native to my area.  I don't spray anything and usually most issues resolve themselves given a little time.  I currently have whitefly and scale on a couple of things, particularly those in my greenhouse, and that's mainly done by mechanical control (squishing or spraying with high power water).

Just dug up my V. palandensis and potted it up. Hopefully it will survive the transplant! I also took a lot of cuttings and I am trying to root them, so hoping for the best. Pretty sure it's a female based on flower rack structure.

Oh, very cool. Report back on your findings on the low heat intensity fruits. I live in Santa Cruz now and I have lost a significant amount of heat from where I used to live, haha.

Dang it, so used to being on this side of the forum that I completely forgot. Sorry about that mods, could you potentially move this into temperate for me?
