Nice collection, Sergio. We had problems with squirrels eating all our fruit as well, we rescued a hunting dog from being euthanized and she has kept all the squirrels away, they don't even bother coming over anymore, so finally we will get to taste some mangos this year!

[@RepentanceGarden]

Thank you @dirtywhiteboy7922! I’m glad you were able to find & save your new family member & now get to also enjoy your mangos! I also found a great remedy to keep the squirrels away recently 💪

This guy has a serious collection, impressive.

Loved seeing Sergio’s place after all these years of seeing him in our fruit grower circle

[@RepentanceGarden]

Thank you bro, I really appreciate that!

[@normalisoverrated]

What a cool guy. He has really inspired me to get back into it. God Bless Everyone.

[@FruitfulTrees]

Yes very cool guy

[@RepentanceGarden]

Amen 🙏 God Bless You as well! Thank you for your kind words! I hope when you get back into it you easily find your joy that got you into it!

Wow so many new varieties of mangos coming out of his place in the future. Very nice 👍

Great video guys! Sergio your yard is amazing and love that you are developing new varieties of mango 🥭 to keep it interesting. I find it so funny that our tropical fruit tree community loves the challenge of growing something outside their grow zone. Keep us posted on those peach trees 🍑.

Thank You @jeremypinto3274 Will do 💪🇵🇷

I learn when I interview the people so it helps everyone :-)

I had 2 peach trees in Miami but they rotted on the bottom and dropped dead. These were the only trees to do that of about 500 citrus mango avocado and lychee trees. The peaches were the greatest on earth. I didn’t care that they collapsed because when we left the fruit on the tree to ripen just 1 second too long fruit flies punctured the fruit to deposit eggs. I didn’t spray because unlike other fruit they didn’t have skin. But again those low chill peaches were absolutely spectacular. May have been Florida or UF Sun and Florida or UF One. I’m not sure but maybe they were like 50 chill hour peaches.

[@RepentanceGarden]

Sorry to hear about your peach trees! I enjoyed watching your videos of your collection! 😁

We like to grow fruitful tress after retirement, which is safest and cheapest place to buy/ house and land in south Florida

[@gilbertomartinez6981]

what system do you use to label and remember all those trees. if i move i would hope new move in would consider taking some care of trees i put in because i at least labeled them

Why does he want to get rid of those protected palms when there is space everywhere?

[@RepentanceGarden]

If I could harvest the berries for medicine/supplement as they do for prostate cancer prevention it wouldn’t be such a problem but they’re taking up too much space where more varieties of mango can go. The leaves are also heavily serrated & take a long time to break down so maintenance is also painful

Sound is bad again! Paul… mics make a big difference

I'm using my mic for my newer videos no worries

[@BIGGGY305]

his OS looks like its starving for something

[@RepentanceGarden]

I’ve fertilized it like all the others but it’s the only one responding differently,which is why I suspect something in the soil

[@BIGGGY305]

@@RepentanceGarden I recall reading something about the soil acidity or lack thereof making it harder for the tree to absorb nitrogen.
