Brian...good points to all. I've planted hundreds of seeds and only a few will germinate and none have gotten past the first two leaves. The only killing I've made at them is my ego. Not worth the frustration. The fruit is very very good, but I've had issues with latex in the fruit here. Others have trees that produce fruit without the extreme issues I've encountered. So there's hope. Yeah, I've been doing all sorts of shit trying to correct whatever imbalance is going on that is affecting the leaf color. I've sprayed micros. Experimented with different soil PH levels. Fertilizers. It's a hit and miss...mostly miss it seems. Some leaves are nice and deep green, while the majority are less so. I'm tired of pissing around with them. I just want all to start flowering and hopefully get at both a male and female in the bunch. Once identified, I will decide what to plant out. Hopefully some of the leaf issues will work itself out. They just are not attractive, well-shaped trees at this stage. At this point, I'm just happy to have any alive.
