Things to Do to Grow Callaloo Successfully

[@tucathehuskyboxermix3397]

This man pulling the callaloo out of the ground and holding it has been the most exciting thing I've seen on gardening KZbin. That plant is HUGE!

[@tomaitoe]

I just bought some of these seeds. I cannot wait to grow them!

[@nicholynbrice4056]

I got my callaloo seeds from your garden and did everything you suggested and they were beautiful and the leaves were huge. When I noticed bugs trying to attack my plant I used the diatomaceous earth and it worked well.i enjoy all your videos/ tutorials. I like peeking into your garden because it's amazing. Thank you for your tutorial today.

I am living in Jamaica and I learnt a lot about growing callaloo bless you

[@rosewhite9468]

Very informative tutorial. Thank you cause we needed to grow our own food these days and avoid process food. Food is medicine.

[@beast-plantsfulgham3896]

Thanks for this. I'll be growing callaloo now for when my Jamaican friends visit. We loved visiting your country in our youth. We did medical missionary trips. We stayed with Jamaican families while there a couple of the years. We have helped a few of your friends migrate to the US. These are some of the best folks on the planet. Literally everyone one of them has returned home to Amity/Savanah la mar area and improved conditions in their country. Amazing people and I'm definitely growing callaloo in my greenhouse for when they visit. Thanks again for the info from Texas

I am very interested in planting callaloo but can you use the callaloo with all the holes in the leaves? How do you prevent that.

I spent a month in jamaica and ate so much callaloo. It's an amazing crop, delicious nutritious and abundant

[@brendaramsey4523]

Good day. I planted my callaloo by plant 🌱 the hard part. Of it and it grows and I always get lots of callaloo for me and my family. I always leave one so it can seeds. Thank you 🙏🏾 for showing me a better way. Thank 👍🏿🌱Stay blessed

[@annmarienewell1532]

We in Jamaica don't root it up we cut it each time it springs up so the calalloo tree last us for a good time and when it start to seed that when it get tuff we may leave that one for seeding to replant .so one tree may last for 3 months

[@humbleservantshomestead7974]

We dont root them up either. This one is growing in our walkway which is why it was pulled up as a demonstration to show the root structure. We sell callaloo by the bundle as well as chopped and washed by the pound so we do a good job maintaining our plants through out the season. We have several videos showing how we do both. We've grown callaloo for over 12 years this way.

[@merlebigini217]

I am amazed at the name you call this! In the islands we make a dish called callaloo but it is made primarily from Dasheen leaves or spinach leaves. We eat the leaves and also the root which is like a type of yam

This is the spinach leaves but his are so wide. I’m going to follow his instructions to see if my trees can grow this big

[@gennisparry4352]

If I come to your country, I’ll certainly go pick them clean them up and cook them. Jamaicans call that plant Callao. The dasheen leaves I don’t know about it, but I’m ask mom because she’s old and knows a lot stuff.

Hi, great information. Thank you. Question, how do you deal with the bugs that eat the leaves?

[@blackbway]

Callaloo has got to be the most easiest, most forgiving leafy green vegetable plant for beginner gardeners. I'm almost certain that you will not fail trying to grow this plant.

[@MistressOP]

are you in the japenese beetle zone? You know if you put out traps you can feed the beetle to chickens. Cuts back on a lot of the leaf damage. over time it sinks the population. And you can actually freeze the beetles into blocks to feed it back to chickens/ducks throughout the year.

[@humbleservantshomestead7974]

The beetles or other insects eating on the leaves does not affect the seeds at all. If you look closely there are holes in the leaves of these plants as we left them to grow as is for seed saving. Yes please save seeds to plant next year.
