The Tropical Fruit Forum

Thank you for the replies.
I am being lazy and was hoping someone would tell me to leave them.
It was a pain getting them up.

Getting bigger but no fruit yet, hopefully next year

Greenpasteur has some really nice trees. Top notch. I was lucky enough to get a few. Wayyy nicer than anything compared to the nurseries.  He really knows his stuff too.

I am trying it right now in a variety of plants (w/ control groups), 2 weeks in - nothing noticeable.

I am in So Cal and winding clockwise. Am I doing it wrong?

I had a seedless guava tree with round, thick leaves. Good looking tree, large beautiful buds/flowers. Every single one dropped. Never gave me any fruit either. Had it for 3 years.

The plants made it. It took a week to ship and about a week to arrive from Indonesia. I'll report on what the fruit is like in a couple of years... haha.

I have a local vendor that sells pearl and diamond guavas. Diamond and crystal - pretty much the same. I grow both. To me, crystal/diamond guavas are sweeter with hardly any seeds.

Copy, thanks for the replies. I will scale back on the high tech stuff. I even bought an electrical conductivity meter… heh

Reason I asked is because my guavas aren’t growing like they used to. First year = grew like champs, 2nd and 3rd yrs = dead or stunted. I figured I was overdoing it.

My atemoya tree on the other hand grew like a monster on this regimen. From twig to 100 flowers in one year!
