Sure wish you had some new videos

Fabulous. I am growing yuzu in containers in the UK.

Thank you so very much!....and a "Thank You" shout out to "The Gardening Dad (thegardeningdad) for posting this link in your wonderful article. If your looking for a PNW gardening coach he's your man!

love this clear explanation! my desert king was planted last fall and i did not head it back because i hadn't yet found this video-- would it be okay to do that this spring? or now before winter?

What variety of Lemons and Limes are these?

How about pomegranates, what is your advice about planting those outside on (central) Vancouver Island?

I live just south of you in Saanich. Do you do anything to prepare the plants for winter? I have a couple of plants and they seem to do ok up until about March. Then suddenly they will lose all or most of their leaves and spend the next 2 to 3 months recovering.

What month pruning ?

Air-layering is an easy and quick way to propagate citrus trees. It takes about 2-3 months to have a fully grown tree which will bear fruit the next year. I've just given a 1-metre lemon tree to a friend. Wish I had known that method years ago when I used to multiply citrus with 20-cm cuttings! If those trees are less hardy than the grafted ones they will, on the other hand, grow back true to their species if they're frozen to the ground.

This pruning method transformed my fig trees in the UK, east Anglia, to producing actual edible figs. The RHS guide has never been helpful for me.

I'm a bit south of you and I just realized I may have to both summer and winter prune to stop them from shooting up so vigorously.

Is that regular Mexican lime or key lime? Everyone says they can't handle any cold weather

Do I need to cut off immature main crop figs? I have Desert King in Seattle

Maestro !

I get - 10 max due to the fact I live in Vermont north with cold winters sometimes,what kinda lemon should I grow and bring it in door or plant it outside like you next to my garage,but i noticed you have a transparent roof , should i do the same??

Merci pour toutes les précisions et les astuces pour éviter le gel

Hi there from Alberta. I realize this video was made many years ago, but I am hoping you will still be able to see my comment. Where are you, and what month do they ripen? I really want to try one.

Great info!

This is a fantastic video. I've never seen it explained so clearly. Great work!

Best video ever on pruning for breba! How do I recognise which branches did fruit already besides using my memory?

Our Loquat here in New Westminster was severely damaged by this years harsh winter but after some hard pruning it is putting out new foliage, of course we will get no fruit this year. We do have 6 seeds from last year for anyone in the area who's interested.

❤

Whats the climate zone, winter minimum on average?

Thanks for sharing! We just got a couple olive trees and are interested in planting on the south side of our house to get the radiant heat; but how do we make sure that it doesn't damage our foundation? What did you do to plant right against the house like that?

I wonder if it would survive out on the Great Plains where the wind blows constantly?

woohoo! I've been trying for 6+ years but can't get citrus older than 2 winters- I will keep trying with these tips, thank you!

What growing zone are you that it survives winter in ground?

I have a friend with a beautiful 30 year old fig tree probably the same size showed on this video, my question is, can you cut a piece of the main base/branch (not a 2 year old pruning that you were showing, a piece of the main structure of the tree without the roots and make it grow Or can you make a root without a branch grow? and if the answer is yes how do you accomplish this?

Which varieties specifically do you recommend for the south coast area?

Begging for some advice if you have a moment. Feel like a woman screaming into the void! I have two varieties of younger trees in pots (maybe a couple years old?) and a meter reading is showing the soil isn’t acidic enough. I have googled to death and can’t figure out what I need to do, there’s so much information out there and I’ve confused myself! My goal is obviously to get them to product fruit. I’m so new to this but feijoas are fruit from my childhood that I dream about, so I am determined. I’m also unsure of when/what to feed them. Do you have any tips for any specific products and how to do it? 🙏🏽

I love tree pruning and question if the short stumps of branches should be cut back to the collar (not damaging the collar) so that the tree can heal over the cut, or perhaps on Fig trees you have to leave the stump? I've seen that the trunk will eventually be damaged without a clean cut so the collar can heal it. How to tell if any of the branches are watersprouts that should be cut off? Is there no need to undercut a branch first? The low hanging branches would make picking easier I'd think.

Great video and that is so cool. I wonder if we are able to grow oranges in Ontario?

After seeing your tree, I've got to be honest - I really like the way my trees growing now and even if it results in fewer figs I think I'm going to leave it alone, as everything spaced out pretty well as it is! Cheers

Great video. Thank you. My fig tree in my garden on Bowen Island is just getting over head height so it’s time for me to manage it as you suggest.

How late can i get a bare root fig from you is the question…..?

kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3TEdWOIidOHbbs It turns out you can wrap citrus fruits with a heating cable

Thank you! I learned a lot.

Почему нормальную теплицу не построил ?

Hi ... Thanks for posting useful material. What are your thoughts on removing the very end tip buds on the canes so as to force the plant to produce more canes?

How do you cover for winter that big tree?

Thank you sir

I live in North Western Turkey and it seems feijoas love subtropical climate of my region (hot and dry summers, mild and rainy winters with couple of snowy days). There are seven trees in my garden, they are prolific fruit bearers. Obviously there isn't any native pollinator bird here and I never hand pollinate but still they produce abundant amount of fruit. Much more than we and our neighbours can consume. Bees and insects are very busy around the trees when they are in bloom. They may be some local species which like feijoa flowers and they are doing pollination job well :)

The feijoas i've grown here on Quadta Island in an unheated greenhouse have grown and fruited beaitifully but i warn others that the fruits i harvested did not taste good at all. I may have done something wrong but Im going to let mine grow for another year or two. Ill try thinning the fruit, too.

This is very informative. One of the 'rules' of pruning generally is to never leave stubs! So fig trees are completely different- we want that stub growth. Good to know. Thank you.

When I was a boy I lived in Japan. My memories of this "little yellow fruit with 3 large seeds", near the play ground, have been stored so favorably in my mind that I recently researched and rediscovered them. The loquat :) Today, 34 years later, I received 2 sweet yellow plum starts which will be planted on the Toandos peninsula west of the hood canal in Washington state. Heres hoping they eventually feel happy enough to bless our family with some flowers and fruit ❤ Thanks for the upload and insight!

ingenious

Are you alive?

Thanks for the awesome video.

Thank you I've been looking into this for about a year or so. I live on Camano Island in Washington State USA. I was wondering are the tree's in pots outside or planted in the ground?? Thanks again God Bless.

Very informative Thank you 🙏🏽
