Have you thought about spraying your plants with hot chili pepper water to discourage the dog from digging them out?
no I didn't i might try that next weekend. Do you have like, a recipe for it i don't want to overdose because of the dog.

Looks good, seem to be giving them everything they need. I did notice a little yellowing of the veins on the Jackfruit. Maybe needs a little mirco nutrients (iron, etc.), I would not go over board, just a little chelated iron and epsom salt (1 teaspoon each) mixed into a gal of water should be enough once every 3 months.
thank you for the advice i wasn't able to post an image of the jackfruit more closely because of the size of the file, i posted some more photos from the other fruits that i have around.

Hello my name is Joćo Sousa I'm 17 years old and I live on Madeira island, Funchal and I have been interested in rare and exotic fruits since my 15, I hope to learn more about more this kind of plants in the future. I live in an flat on the top floor where most plants can get sun but most plants that i own are on my mothers boyfriend roof, unfortunately i don't have any kind of terrain to plant more plants but i hope to get one in the future, for now I'm going to put them in a VERY large pots.
The plants that I have now are: passiflora edulis (both the yellow and purple variety), physalis, longan, grumixama, feijoa, jackfruit, black suriman cherry and dragon fruit (selenicereus megalanthus, the yellow one).
And the fruit plants that i hope to adquire in the future are berries with uncommon colors, miracle berry, rambutan both the red and yellow variety, durian, dragon fruit(selenicereus megalanthus hybrid) orange skinned with red pulp, jabuticabas, mangosteens, pommelo, normal and strawberry guavas and black and white sapotes or how i like to call them "pudding sapotes" because of what i heard they taste like pudding.
Well, that's i have to say, I hope to learn more from all of you. Good evening and thank you for your time.
