enjoyed the videos.

Thanks guys. It's been almost a decade working at it. Only just starting to get the literal fruits of my labor.
I may start posting mango comparison videos.

Thanks for taking the time to make the videos and share your experiences.  I’m amazed at the growth rate of your trees and the diversity you have growing.  Interesting that some of the permaculture practices didn’t work for you, I have had a similar experience and now have most interplantings that die back in the summer and fill the spaces with potted plants that benefit from the shade.  Awesome abundance you have!

Thanks Janet,
I think the main problem is trying to mix ultra high density with typical permaculture practices.
I'm thinking it has to do with the rate the nutrients are depleted from the soil with all the fruit production.
I compost but don't have septic so it's not really a closed-loop system.

The main problem i found for me (15miles from the beach) is a lack of airflow.
I have a lot more disease issues this year, but i did get decent crop this year when most people got a poor one. Win some lose some

I'm in the think of mango season right now, I was hoping to do some tasting videos but I'm not really sure if it's worth it.
Maybe a live stream would be better with some Q&A would be better?

If I'm not mistaken, you commented a few times about not knowing how long you'd be in this house.  Are you planning on buying a house with a bigger lot?  Would you like to be farther east with better air circulation?

[skhan]

Not further east. Likely not to far away. Planning on getting a slightly bigger lot but will have less tree.
Going to do a 15ft spacing for the mangos

And a lot of top-working (multi-grafted trees), right?

Bro, you’ve got a killer yard…great diversity of plantings and premium varieties. Thanks for sharing.

[skhan]

Thanks for all the support guys. When some of the rarer fruit start ripening I'll post some videos on the subject.
