How To Grow Pear Trees From Seed, Day 82

Time for an update on my Pear trees from seeds series... it's been 48 days since the last video and they are now at 82 days old!
Looks like the 1st sprouts in old soil are struggling compared to the 2nd three sprouts in newer soil... lesson learned: always put young sprouts in new, high quality potting mix... duh!
Here's the link to the first video:

My daughter, Miss21, has discovered that pomegranate trees are easy to grow from seed. We live in a part of Australia which has a similar climate to Texas.

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Lee Golder I've been wanting to test pomegranates out too. Good luck to you and your daughter. What fun!

[@TimCluyts]

It's funny watching this now and seeing how much you've changed the way you create your videos since then.

[@Yolanda05]

Tbh I had some seeds like this with my avocado and they seem to respond better when I plant them during a full moon call me crazy but it does help a lot with my germination rate .

🥰🥰💕💕💃💃

[@elhombre8034]

Bigger pots, bigger roots, bigger plants

[@AlFurqaan2024]

Thanks for inspiring...now im start my own pear plant

[@VaughnMalecki]

New subscriber. I've been checking out some of your videos and I love it. God bless you.

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Vaughn Malecki thank you Vaughn! I appreciate you watching them and liking them. I'm still learning as I go!

thanks for the video looks good

[@nkel6111]

[@wawewawe1316]

What's your general climate and what are your seasons like where you are? I've grown some BB from seed. They're a couple of years old now. It's the end of our Autumn now and they're looking no bigger than yours in this video

[@shajahanebrahim2604]

What is the fertile to grow. In which season it will grow. In summer or winter can you reply plz

[@ka.erptvofficial590]

I'm so glad to have a pear seedlings here in the Philippines

[@jrbruce9425]

I planted tangerine 3 months ago and only got the first leaves idk whats wrong

[@DarylSkinner]

Can you grow them in the uk 🇬🇧

[@tylerlook1752]

So the soil makes the difference?..

[@pianooriginal7913]

Hello, i started my pear seeds with roots indoors about 2 weeks ago in egg cartons. They all took off nicely and grow bigger and bigger day by day. How long should I wait before I transplant seedlings into a bigger pot or a plastic cup like in your video?

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Piano Original great job on the pear seeds! As soon as they get their 2nd set of leaves (or first true leaves) then I’d transplant them.

[@martha7731]

What’s the difference in the soil? Can I start seeds in a big pot so that I don’t have to keep transferring them into larger pots?

[@pizzaparker2568]

Is it possible to get a pear tree if I plant the seed in soil? A plumule came out which looks white but not sure if it's a pear plant

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Yes. If it is a pear seed from a pear tree you should get a pear tree - it may be a different variety than what you pulled it from, but it should be a pear variety. Thanks.

[@gennmartin3034]

For people planting pears , you will need at least 2 varieties of pears to get any fruits and you will not get the same type of pear as what you get the seed from.

[@michaelt8009]

What type of good quality potting soil did you use?

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

M T I used store bought soil mixed with some of my homemade compost to start these.

[@joem2745]

I have a pear grown from seed that was stunted and looked like it was about to die. I set the container next to an azalea by chance and came back a few days later. The pear tree completely came to life and took off. I planted it next to the azalea and it branched out and thickened up like crazy. I started the seed in December of 2020 and now it's over four foot tall with about an inch trunk. Could there be something to the azalea being close to the pear?

[@user-es9pt3bs3e]

💕💕👍👍

[@danugarbarino2291]

do you ever have to change the soil periodically?

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Only when I transplant it into a bigger pot, or if I suspect some kind of pest infections/fungal infection.

[@AusJackal]

question is.. do trees grown from seed produce fruit? Don't most fruit trees require cross pollination and therefore people usually use grafted stock?

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Jackal's Outdoor Channel Pear trees grown from seed can produce edible fruit. While the variety may be different from the parent tree, it is possible. Having other pear tree varieties for cross pollination is suggested so that you get a quality harvest, and since I have Orient and Bartlett pear trees in my yard to go with theses d'anjou ones, I shouldn't have to worry too much about that. Keep in mind that it takes roughly 5-8 years to produce fruit, but some can produce in as little as 3 years. At the end of the day, I'm mostly growing these for fun but would love to discover a new variety!

[@AusJackal]

thank you..

[@Richb711]

Do you recommend just using soil from your garden or buying quality soil

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

For indoors, I recommend purchasing a quality potting mix. If you have homemade compost, then you could buy cheap potting mix and amend it with some compost. Thanks for tuning in!

[@kriz2885]

hey! i bought the soil from home depot All natural potting mix for pear 🍐 do i really to mix with anything else! i’m totally new to grow plants n vegetables 🌶 plz guide 😌

[@henrystyle4879]

Whats the best soil to use?

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

I use 50%potting mix and 50% compost from my yard.

[@nobodyimportant4183]

How are the bunnies???

[@RobBackyardGardenerr]

Phil Love they grew up and moved out! Thanks for asking!

[@nobodyimportant4183]

Oh, okay, thanks!
