CALAMONDIN ORANGE Care - Ep. 331

[@valerieclark5695]

My parents had one of these back in the seventies. It grew quite well for five or ten years when left outside in the bright summer sun and taken inside in the winter. We had a very very sunny window. My parents were good enough gardeners but not perfect. This was in Minnesota, much farther North than upstate New York, so don't worry about that aspect. Thank you for helping me revisit my childhood. I haven't seen one of these in years. Calamondin was one of my favorite words as a child.

Calamansi! 😃 It grows like a weed in the Philippines. It fruits non-stop year round with the right treatment. You can get 2kg of fruit for 1$ It makes a really nice juice like lemonade but with calamansi and is even better with honey ❤ They are used when green. It is a common juice drink but also used in seasonings with soy sauce on meats and feeesh. Growing lemons here in the ground is hard cuz they don't seem to like the wetness. But they grow well in pots 😀

My Yaya had a huge one here in Texas, but it died during winter freeze Uri 😢

Hi, so do you think it's best to pick an extra dry place to plant it if considering putting it in the ground?

Beautiful Calamansi! I am growing one here in Germany, loves the summers outside in the garden and of course I have it inside in my conservatory in the winters! Such a cool plant and great for all kinds of cooking dishes! Thanks for sharing!

Hallo I’m a Filipino living in Germany. I just bought my Calamondin today and worrying how to keep them on winter.. any Tipp? Danke im Voraus

[@nellyshiks166]

I bought one this year and it is growing it’s second fruit already. They have so many health benefits

We had a huge one of these in south Florida so sour but smelled great definitely decorative and you can eat them I guess if you like to shock your tastebuds. i prefer sour oranges for cooking as far as kumquats yes please especially for cheesecake. another fruiting subtropic/tropical is Loquat or Japanese plum tree looks great in a planter and require some pruning I just love the foliage.

Vou pedir meu neto para interpretar! Eu plantei tangerina no copinho descartável, nasceu! Vou colocar em um vaso grande quando ficar maior. 😂 Espero colher tangerina, pois nós colhemos o que plantamos! ❤❤❤

[@riawhetstone3725]

What luck! I damn near killed mine when I forgot to water it before vacation 😅 but it came back from a stump 🥳 Definitely a favorite in Filipino cuisine!

Calamansi!!! Philippines best citrus especially for sauces, pies and cooking!

[@jakeryker546]

Pie?! What pie? 🫨

[@raselbx]

Oh yeah…you were definitely into school using words such as “vector for other plants.”😂 I’m digging the vocab usage. Btw, you’re getting ‘cooked’ up there; shoulders are mad-red!

[@EddyFeyen]

Great found you as i live in zone 6b and have the same problems. I will sub as well.

[@seanmorgan2678]

You can eat calamondin skin it's slightly sweet. I also wait until they are fully golden and slightly soft. Roll them in your hand to release the oils in the rind and enjoy.

[@vnxettitw4879]

I tried to eat the skin bc I have many other sweet kumquats but the calamansi skin was bitter to my taste. The juice is a very good.

Commercial potted citrus trees prone to have chlorosis (usually they are grown in bark or peat based mix). Any iron fertilizer will help to mitigate this problem.

Sushi game-changer: Wasabi + Soy Sauce + Calamondin Soju game-changer: Soju + Pineapple Juice + Calamondin

[@justins5195]

Does anybody know if you can put the calamondin indoors near a sunlit window and a heater radiator during the winter?

[@pauljarvis7386]

After my flowers fade the remaining fruit bud also drops off...any tips on what I'm doing wrong?

[@brandonheyward8635]

Why would anyone care about an orange tree, i let mine fall to the groud every year

[@slicktmi]

I'll go pick them from your yard 😂
