I have a Fairchild also,all my neighbors ask when will they be ripe and I tell them 6 to 8 weeks they are still green need to wait for them to turn red...lol never lost a fruit yet...Great tree for the front yard and the fruit is pretty damn good also

For most tropicals specially in Florida, Nitrogen is the key. For those who have a small orchard the best way is to apply nitrogen in the form of urea 46-0-0 at $18-$20 for 50 lbs is a great price to Nitrogen ratio. Buy low biuret spray grade Urea. Mix with water and apply it in  drench or with the irrigation system. The same with potassium nitrate 10-0-46 spray grade can be mixed with water and applied to the ground. Minos can be applied foliar or in the mix.  Most in Florida don't need phosphorus, depending of your solid. Don't rule out these very economical ways of applying fertilizer

Carlos, Where do you pick that up at? would love the 10-0-46

Thanks some good info there

Just graft them onto any lychee tree you have if you can't find any seedling rootstock.

Grafting lychee is very difficult. Good luck.
I dont have any lychee trees, this was going to be my first go around! wondering if I should just get the scion wood and give it to someone who knows what they are doing with it! would hate to see it go to waste! So if any grafters who have rootstock want the scions please PM me I will have Dr. Zee send it to me at the end of June and meet up with the lucky person! but need to be local I'm in Coral Springs Fl.

That is awesome, wish I could make it up there for that!

Can someone post the email address to the HI. USDA station here? I would also love to request some air layers.

20 and 100

Rob, It's no use trying to explain yourself some people just like to argue for the sake of arguing. And when they see your getting a little under the collar they turn it up a bit more just to keep the argument going. You know your right Walter & Zill's knows your right and your never going to stop people from trying to rename trees, We are the only one with this "NEW" mango "Angie Blush" get it while it's hot...

ok acoff where in pompano are you I'm in coral springs I'll come grab a basket full taste test till I'm sure what it is! I'll even bring one to Harry if he would like!

They are green and pretty...lol

I am growing a j-31 now, have room for one more, Also was wondering if Soursop was worth growing never had the fruit, is it any good? it sure looks cool

I agree why stress the trees two or three times when you can just dig them up replant and water, a lot less stress on the tree and work on you! Good luck with the move!
