Hi Mark, there are actually giant varieties of passion fruit here in Brazil. Search for BRS Sol Do Cerrado or BRS Gigante Amarelo. They even have F1 seeds. They sell at stores here and are quite big. They are the sour kind of passion fruit. Good for juices

[@keninglis7060]

White strawberries do exist, but they are actually pineberries. Same family and they need strawberries nearby to set fruit but they are a different thing. What you can get in different colors are the flowers on your strawberries. There are pink and red strawberry flowers in addition to the standard white ones.

[@80sforever3]

White alpine strawberry also exists, small but oh so sweet

[@Monkeyb00y]

And pineberries are tasty. I'd seen them at market, and marked up double regular strawberry price. Just once, and that's it. Perhaps I'll grow some next year.

The sugarcane/sorghum scam probably works out for the best in temperate climates. There will always be that one guy that tries to grow sugarcane here in britain (hi, that's me), but growing sorghum is so much easier in colder climates and still produces a fair amount of sugar as well as grain from one harvest.

[@LadyMoringaAndTheCallalooMan]

I’m growing sugarcane in London/ Kent just fine 🤷🏽‍♀️ it’s pushing out babies atm

[@WeirdHeather]

I think we can grow sugar beet here tho, so can still grow sugar that way

[@Handles_AreStupid]

@@WeirdHeather Yeah, you can still grow sugar beets, but they take more fertilizer and water than sorghum. My sorghum has not been deliberately watered once, not even after sowing, and it is REALLY taking off. It's called the "pancake plant" because you can make pancakes from the grain, and syrup from the sap.

[@Home-GrownHomestead]

Interesting. Here in the southern US sorghum is made into a syrup similar to molasses

[@nussbaumig]

[@papersongs3482]

I had ro watch the pumpkin move several times. Definitely creepy. Glad you noticed it.

[@thedoors1388]

If you want a large species of passionfruit, you need to add Passiflora quadrangularis (giant granadilla) or Passiflora maliformis (sweet calabash) to your collection. Neither of them taste like the various Passiflora edulis varieties you commonly see grown, but they are similar, as they are from the same genus. Edulis fruits will only get so big on their own without hybridization with one of their larger cousins. People should be a little wary of Facebook, Etsy, and eBay plant and seed sellers. Not all sellers on those sites are scammers (I have sold plants on eBay, for instance) but a not insubstantial percentage of sellers are. I recommend people patronize legitimate nurseries (of which there are many great ones out there) and/or sites such as Tropical Fruit Forum, which is run by fruit growers for other fruit growers.

[@loverlyme]

Thanks for the reference. I'll check out the Tropical Fruit Forum for recommendations.

[@chezmoi42]

Good advice, Mark! I'm reminded of the recent 'Seed Scams' video from Atomic Shrimp, where he talks about blue sunflowers, 'catflowers' and more, which he has grown so we don't have to. (He's also one of the most amusing online scambaiters I've seen.)

This is a great video. I also recommend one on the same topic by someone called Atomic Shrimp. He talks further about how to spot these scams, and the increasingly deceitful ways they're being marketed. If you're buying seeds online, be extra, extra careful. You might get sprouts, but it'll be way more expensive, and certainly not what you ordered

[@kerrydruce2212]

I feel like the biggest scam in overall gardening comes from hardware stores. I bought a kumquat tree from OBI (one of the biggest hobbymarkets/hardware stores in my country), the tree had fruits on it which i found very intriguing. The tree started drying up a week or two after buying it, and eventually died. The reason why it probably died was because they usually put a very unhealthy amount of fertilizer into the tree, which forces the tree to fruit early. This is why i now only buy fruit trees from certified gardening centres that actually know what they are doing. The trees that have an awful load of fertilizer in them are often destined to die shortly after. Huge money grab IMO.

[@Nihlink]

Id say almost all kumquat trees are full of fruit in the nursery. I actually can’t remember not seeing one full of fruit at any nursery

[@mugustabjeonklei2613]

Our trees keep dying within a month of buying them from hardware stores or grocery stores, too. I can only think of 3 trees that survived longer; those are years old now but 2 of them are in bad shape (probably because of bugs). 3 trees out of a dozen or more.

As a sugar cane farmer, we call "seed cane" the crop that you cut either with a harvester for billet planting or as whole sticks for stick planting. Both ways have the stick cut into "billets" or cuttings I guess you could call it. So that there are eyes for the cane to grow from 😊 keep up the good work Mark!

hey man, I love your videos! for the passion fruit to grow bigger, try hand pollinating and covering the plant with a plastic roof. Also... add in a high phosforus fertilizer and also each week give it plenty of Ca, B, Mg & Zinc. Im a comercial grower and the npk formula that works for me is 10-28-20. The giant passion fruit commercially is known as Maracuya Sol from Brazil. But if you do the fertilizing and hand pollination you should get a fuller fruit! Cuz if not, the bumble bee won't pollinate all of them and they won't fill up with pulp!
