Wow these guys are swelling up nicely. They got nice tits on them if you ask me! Sorry for the POlitical correctness crowd it is call nipples. The tree is flowering like crazy now thank to redneck fertilizer. I am tempted to try it as a green coconut but I will wait when it turn brown in five months to taste. I am going to used my fishfinder ball to see if the sonar penetrate the husk and tell me which nut will develop normally and which will be Macupuno early stage of its development so no guessing game!
My Pinoy Brother in law and his posse are encampments aready, had no Ideas it was that sacrilegious to Phillippino; their national fruit! Now I understand why tropicaliste was sticking to my ass so tight on this one. Cuban is crazy for their chirimoya (custard apple an soursop san fibre), Vietnamese the Chewy Sugar Apple , Fillipino their macupuno, Morrocan their mandirin, Hatian their beaucoup fibre Mango and etc.
Durianlover I am not going to explain the process other than we take the embryo out and put in a medium that has the enzyme for the embryo to start germinate and grow. You see the original OEM macupuno (nut genetic lack the ability to digest and use its embryonic nutritional to grow normally so its program to fill up the nut with ammino acids Body builder would love to eat. That is the simplest I Am going to get in this scope.
Choctaw is my Native tongue not tagalog. Perhaps that Pinoy Tropicaliste can enlightened us by translating the paper you spoke off Rytis so the Rest of us can get a better understanding of methodology and practice develop in the Phillipine over the last several decades. If Tropicaliste does this translation and sold out the only one good thing the Phillipine is only known for, I will be happy to share some plunder with this trader of nuts.
Now since I have the original True Macupuno Mutation tree which only produce 20/25 percent macupuno nuts and the rest normal sprouting; what I will do is rescue the first generation and put it out on the 2,500 acres in West Palm Beach to grow out. The center of the property ensure no other wind pollinated coconut can reach this cold strains and spiral white flies resistance and it is also Lethal yellows resistant why because the ten Panamanian tall planted in my yard by the Developers surcum to the disease which are carried by palm hopper living in your well manicured lawn you see prevalent in Florida were this OEM tree is kicking out fruit and right without any systematic used; au naturale. I have noticed that coconut tree mix cropping with grass increase spiral whiteflies exponentially by the functionality of mowing it into lovely golf courses if you dont treated with systemic. After these tissue culture trees bare grown out, we than rescued from the first generation and selective of trees that yield the greatest number of mutant nuts over regular normal nut. Of couse we will prime out the low bearing producing tree with the greatest nut yields so our friend Micah wont fall of his three foot step ladder and break his asses, I meant hips and sue me😅! 🌴🌴
Moreover the current drinking coconut grown with lots of undergrowth debris I have notice the tree doesnot have spiraling flies investation as another Honey Bear grown next to the HOA green belt claim. I had to hand kill the bastard, so I been secretly planning low bushes slowly squating on the HOA land to get rid of the current mowed lawns flanking my arod coconut.
So to sum it up Durianlover, each sucessful generation and algorithms will slowly mimic those stochastic walks done in the Phillipine; so yes we will eventually get an early bearing dwarfs coconut suitable for the American subtropic. I will make a killing selling Luxery Mansion with dwarf macupuno yielding hopefully 100% to retire Pinoy in the US. All ambition start with a dream and neglect of other reality but your own.
I dont pretend to to be the arbitator of all knowledge, I can only hope my randomly walk towards that goal will be achieve with the knowledge of other who has come before me. So any trade secrets would be of greater help so I can achieved it in my lifetime. Yes 14 years is ahell of a short time to develop this coconut , now the quick but trickiest part is to get the rescue to work so I have ask a new friend to assist my lack of skill in the matter.
Rumour is there are islands with self replicating macupuno off Thailand or Malaysia, I am a very good rescue certified diver, Perhaps Rytis you And I can frog in under the cover of darkness?🚤
