mixed lots of compost and organic fertilizer in with the soil before planting. They have been fed fish fertilizer in their water and also the past 2 months I have began foliar feeding with the fish and liquid kelp as well as small amount of monopotassium. One outta three trees did flower and set one fruit about 2 weeks back. this is our first time growing soursop and we ourselves  have been impressed with growth rate.
