I really like this new series ! In particular the fact that we see all the progress in a single video. It's far too frustrating to have to wait for updates, which sometimes never arrive... 😅

Hey,Nick I do the same with my haas avocado seeds and they are almost two feet now. I plant several in a big pot to achieve a bushier look since it grows only one stalk each. I doubt that it will grow fruits,but I just like the look of it. I also have a pineapple plant in a pot and now have a very cute pineapple fruit on top.Happy planting to all. From your subbie in Florida.

A year ago I started 40 jackfruit pits but only half germinated with paper towel method, 6 made if through last hot summer and only one survived the winter in the greenhouse in Western Washington but it's doing okay now. I also got a dozen 1-2 year old avocado trees. I wish I had the room to try other fruit trees.

Congratulations Nick for the success of the project!

I’m impressed!! I like that you put the progress in one video. The first growth from a seed are the leaves, not the roots, but clearly you are a talented gardener because you started them off upside down! 😄

My mom comes from the state in Mexico where a lot of guavas (white ones) are produced and originate from. The smell of guavas is everywhere. I absolutely love them and I want to give this a go. I didn't know you could just put them in a plastic bag to mimic a mini greenhouse! Thank you! I hope your guavas grow big and healthy :)

Hi Nick! This was really interesting seeing the progress from start to the little plants. I hope you'll keep us updated on how they do after you repot them, and I hope you do more of these. Thank you so much for sharing!

I’ve got a trio of avocado trees, a trio of grapefruit trees, and I just started a couple mango trees. I’d love to do passion fruit, but I see them so rarely in the store around here, I am going to have to wait for my opportunity.

I've done this many times with kitchen scraps,lol. My most recent ones are lemons and oranges. My exotic fruit experiment was with a dragon fruit. It's so cool to see the new plants take shape. I do want to try the guava .

Omg, I clicked on this video so fast. My dream is to have several fruit trees and I just started seeding some avocado pits to see if that works out. As a venezuelan I'm super on board with this type of content!!!

That’s so fabulous, your germination rate! Well done.

Currently doing this with pomegranate seeds

One guy I follow does toilet tissue instead of paper towels , he says the tissue is a lot softer and he doesn't have that much of an issue with the roots getting stuck. I honestly hadn't tried it since I germinate mine straight in soil.

Love guava. May give this a shot. Smarter thing to do with the transfer from paper towel to planter is to just grab a pair of scissors and cut the sprouts out with the paper towel. Then just place the strip of sprout/paper towel in the planter with a little soil on top. It makes things so much easier, and, as long as it's just paper based, the towel will break down.

I do the same with some bell pepper seeds. They produce some nice looking plants.

So excited for this video! Inspiring me to try to grow some fruit 🍉 And so annoyed with myself; I ordered cactus/succulent soil from repotme and completely forgot to use your code! Buuut I’ll be needed African violet soil.. so I’ll be using code Nick for that purchase 😁

Even the leaf are edible

I've don't a ton of these! Dragonfruit Mango Avocado Kiwi Prickly pear

Great video. If it’s grafted the fruit should taste the same. They graft the preferred fruit onto a strong root stock.

Fun to watch, Nick! How about doing avocado next?🙃

Time to separate the baby trees into individual pots!

Boiling a seed sounds like unaliving it 😬

💚💚

Can these be grown in the southwest of England?

Yum 🤤

Nice one, great to encourage people to grow food in any way! The idea that the fruit you grow won't be any good is actually not necessarily true. You can get better fruit, or worse, or much the same as the parent. Some fruits like nectarines and peaches grow very true to the parent. Others like apples are a lot more variable. The differences come from the fact that seeds are using sexual reproduction instead of vegetative - eg cuttings, which are clones of the mother plant. But then some plants are self fertile while others need cross pollination, some from completely different varieties, so that changes how much variation you'll get in the offspring. But the commonly repeated thing that you won't get decent fruit by growing the seeds you get in fruit you eat is definitely not universally true! I have seed grown peaches and nectarines, a lot, on my place, and all produce absolutely beautiful fruit, a lot of it actually much better, and on a much more fast growing and vigorous tree, than from grafted trees I've bought from nurseries :)

I love the smell of guavas & the taste of guava juice but the fruits are always rock hard & flavorless. I can only find them at a few Walmart (the big ones with the grocery sections) so I guess maybe that’s the problem.
