Empty Yard to Fruit Tree Paradise

Andy has been growing fruit trees in is backyard for 19 years. Check out the results.

No grass to cut. Privacy fence. Free fruits. Win win !!!

[@chaselex]

Would love to hear and explanation of how putting a nail through a papaya tree converts it to female. I just chop the top of the males and the tree branches out into 2-5 trees at the top

[@goodharvest7954]

NICE. I love it

Just one thing that bothered me, he said that loquat is in the citrus family but it is not it's more closely related to pears, apples or quince, they are all in the pomaceae family. On the contrary citruses are in the rutaceae family.

[@sazji]

Yeah, I think the -quat throws people off.

[@DankFroot]

20 years growing fruits sound divine! I've only been collecting fruit for the last few years (already over 200 species, pretty good for being in northern illinois I think, but not good enough. lol). I grew Cannabis and psilocybin mushrooms for about 20 and 15 years respectively before I started collecting fruit, and I wish I had gotten into rare fruit much earlier... I'd have never wasted my time on the intoxicating stuff. I'm so happy growing fruit now, it blows my mind! This guy's yard is amazing, and fills me with envy! One day I'll be able to put my trops/subtrops in the ground somewhere... one day...

[@GardenForaged]

What a great collection! I hope my yard is like that in 20 years 😁

[@nicholascarby1075]

Great video, good variety of different fruit trees in a not so big yard 🙌🏽🥑🫒🍌🍊🍒

[@calivette2020]

At 20:50 you he said he put a nail in the male papaya tree. Why is it a good idea to convert a male to female and where exactly did he put the nail in the tree? Very interesting collection.

[@FruitfulTrees]

it makes the tree thinking it is going to die so they produce offspring.

[@thegr8stm8]

Hi Paul… you forgot your Bluetooth mic again! Suggest you keep it in the car and keep it charged. It will greatly improve audio quality… otherwise good video. I multiple grafted trees…for variety…

[@MsFishingdog]

Enjoyed watching video. Thanks to both of you.

[@junewebb306]

Beautiful trees. So many trees together. I’m in Ohio. I am still going to grow me some trees. Probably in pots first.❤😅😊

[@theplanthealer]

Definitely you can grow akmost everything in pots.

[@WhiteTiger5151]

Hi Andy, I'm on a mission to find as many trees to grow that provide food, medicinals, and hardwoods. My ag enterprise, White Tiger Farms, will be growing in southern Oregon.

[@MelDormoy]

What does he feed coconut trees???? THAT would be so helpful to know.

[@LeChristEstRoi]

I don't know what he feeds his coconut trees, but what I know is that sea salt (1 to 2 kg/year per tree) stimulates coconut trees growth and nuts production, and makes them healthier and disease resistant. But you need to be careful when using salt in your yard! Most other plants don't tolerate salty soil! On my property I grow coconut tree on the bank of a seasonal creek, so any excess of salt will eventually return to the sea and won't accumulate in the soil and affect other plants!

[@theplanthealer]

There are many types of fertilizer, most are for tropical fruit trees. I also add salt about every 3 months. Any type even Epson salt.? Dm

[@LeChristEstRoi]

@@theplanthealer Epsom salt is magnesium (magnesium sulfate), and is a totally different compound than sea salt (sodium chloride) Epsom salt can be used on all fruit trees. Sea salt should be used only for coconut trees.

[@blizzunt420e]

I think it’s great what you’re doing and I hope whoever you pass your property on two or whoever buys it in the future will have the same care and respect for those beautiful trees that you have had

[@theplanthealer]

I love my trees and plants. Nature is the best therapy

[@theplanthealer]

Yes, thanks. Senior moment

[@marisaphoenix1893]

The loquat is NOT in the citrus family. It’s in the family related to stone fruit such as peaches and nectarines.

[@thehuntfortruth]

Having a hard time understanding what hes saying without a 🎤 mic on him. Yard looks cool though

[@edwinrodrigues9747]

Loquat is from the rose family. Same like apricots plums cherries peaches strawberry

Grows figs in the ground….must have amazing soil. I planted one in the ground. Basically stayed dormant for 2 years. Took it out of the ground and placed in pot with bagged soil. Immediately came to life.

Those small purple tomatoes are called black cherry I believe.. I grew a bunch this year, and they are so flavorful.

[@allgreenchannel2968]

Hello great video, i have a question he said the salvia tree was good for gum diesease, did i hear that right or was it a different name that i maybe heard wrong,could you clarify please.

[@theplanthealer]

Salvia (also known as wide leaf sage) can be used for the treatment of gum disease. I personally usrd it and got rid of my disease. I used one leaf daily fir about 2 months. It is also used to treat toooth infection and sore throat. ? Dm

[@jameswhite937]

Well done ! Interesting and enjoyable. Thank you. 😊

[@jnviljoen5679]

Enjoyed his yard. Thanks for the video. By the way, you don't 'convert' a male papaya into a female. The males bear fruit automatically. They do carry further away from the trunk like where the flowers form.

[@chaselex]

Males do not bear fruit. It would have to be a hermaphrodite with both female and male flowers on the same tree. Or just a female tree that gets cross pollinated. Correct me if I misunderstood your comment

[@rajbeekie7124]

These yards are great conversation pieces. However, these tees are planted way too close to each other. Many looked stressed out to me. To be productive, fruit plants need good soil, water, light and space. If not given enough space they will grow tall to compete for light. Many times papaya trees are bisexual. Sometimes, it is only female or male. Over time the bisexual may shift from male to female. Cutting off the top forces it to grow side shoots. The new shoots can change the expression to female. He will have to find a new home for the coconut trees. They need 15-20 feet minimum to do well. The branches will shade out trees below and they will not produce fruit.

[@theplanthealer]

Thanks for your comments.

[@PillarsAndStrategies]

Would love to know if we can interview the Florida man about his Sage (Wide Leaf) Plant or if you have any insight to how we can make sure we purchase the right plant for combatting gum disease.

[@theplanthealer]

Very happy to show you the plants. Please Dm. I am Andy

Nice Paul! Could ask a few more questions about care for each tree. Fertilizer/sun/water tips and things like that would be great 👍🏼

[@theplanthealer]

I use a fertilizer that is made especially for the Rare fruit Council

[@KhanhNguyen-hg4er]

Really like your video, thank you! I just bought a Persian Lime, Improved Mayer Lemon and Thornless Key Lime trees from Costco and all three trees are in ONE pot. Should I split them and plant into different pots or plant them into one bigger container. Your expertise is greatly appreciated, thank you. Ken

[@theplanthealer]

Hi am Andy, thank you for your comment. Unfiotunately, citrus are getting hard to grow. I suggest that you put them in 3 gallon pots. Fill it with sand it grows better. ? Dm

[@fruitvibes]

Lots of trees, but seems rather haphazard with lots of unproductive trees, trees that have outgrown buckets, etc. Yes, some unique stuff, but I don't see a lot of fruit unfortunately.

[@Walizen]

In due season..

[@folafola7996]
