years ago Ma went to the grocer, and requested papaya seeds from the produce manager. He gave her a free handful. She had at least 1 that germinated decent, and it ended up approx. 3 ft. tall. She had 1 fruit develop, and just before winter. In order for its own weight, not to cause 'drop off'. I took an old school 12" ruler, and black electrical tape, and secured it to da trunk ! Right on time in the spring, it began to change into a orange yellow color. It fully ripened. Very good flavor; no spray's no fertilizer. She used to germinate in her kitchen oven. The temp. was around 95°due to the pilot, when not using the oven . Small 'peat pots', and a 'green thumb'. The interests, and enthusiasm of the older ones is inspiring, motivating especially in things of "life". Likes plants, pets, etc. Thank you for the vids. Now, I'm not sayin your old or something like that.....

Rob Bob's Backyard Farm & Aquaponics so close to Lake Michigan, and humidity is plentiful. A number of years previous, the weather changed to a pattern with many warm/hot days; with 20° deg. drop at night. Not the best for tomato fruits, or squash. Yes this summer had much less of rain, but steadier day temps. Onions, potatoes, sweet corn - squash bugs problem. One time, local store carried cherry tomatoes from Haifa, Israel. From those seeds, we had vines going up the power line for our home. Very sweet cherry tom's, with tender skins. One problem here, are the thick skins on the hybrid tomatoes; whether already grown at market, or from seed. Over all the quality, and taste is very good. The industry boys, pick the fruits green, and gas them like bananas, hard green, and like potatoes. Good growing !

Thank you so much for all the education on the papaya tree. I think now I know how to help my Papaya tree thrive and survive most of the elements which are affecting it now. I was wondering what the black spots were , and now I know. I was also looking to see how you can help the tree grow healthy and sweet papayas. Is there any vitamin or special food that I can feed my tree that can help the fruit be sweeter? Thank you again. Happy Planting :)
@RobsAquaponics4 жыл бұрын
Hi Marlen. There's no particular element you could add that I can think of which would increase sweetness. I have found that the fruit developed after top dressing with compost tend to be sweeter.

Great video Rob! I bought a papaya from the local Walmart and I saved the seeds and I planted them and lo and behold they came up! I'll shoot you a picture later on, I have them in containers in pretty much sandy soil but with a lot of compost, I have been feeding them with Miracle Grow, and they seem to be doing good. Remember now I live in Northeast Florida and we get some mighty cold weather here, so I am going to build a greenhouse shortly and hopefully they will survive the winter which is coming Upon Us soon. I'm not sure what variety they are but they are the big long kind if that makes any sense. Anyway brother cool video thank you so much!

I have bought liquid potash from them before & think it was a bit cheaper. You can add wood ash as it's high in potassium. I prefer to add it to the compost heap though as I have seen folks over do it around plants & damage them. Google might give you a few ideas as well. 👍😁

These started to fruit within 12 months. It ended up dying from an unknown ailment late in 2019. She has been replaced by 3 offspring grown from seeds dropped by the flying foxes. Cheers.

Hello rob. I live in a rental property and have inherited a couple of nicely producing papayas. Can i spray the fungicides while it fruits as the lower leaves are yellowing a spotting as you showed and are dieing off

You should have no issues with the wettable sulphur Rich. Just make sure you wash the outside of the fruit before eating it. Hope you can get on top of it mate. Cheers.
