next season I'm going to try surround (kaolin clay) if I can find it locally and possibly maybe pyretherin mixed with it in the tank. since its originally made from a plant and not carcinogenic to humans. I hate to use anything but will have to keep the 🐈 away from my stone fruit trees as its very toxic to them. the plum curculio really is a usless insect 🤬

@@hamhamhamham5304 legally I am not sure what the town code is on branches hanging over public property in this case the sidewalk. If the branch with fruit was crossing a private property line into my yard for example I think legally I could cut it including the fruit. Although in either scenario I don't think the owner would be happy but it wouldn't be necessary because I've got my own pomegranate trees holding fruit in my backyard :)

​@@raregrowsNJhow often you watering tree ?

​@@yorikvatral929it's not my tree, but my own personal trees in my backyard I rarely water unless we are in a drought

nice catch, there was definitely a peach tree right next to the pom

Do it, my Afganski grows well and fruits in 7a, you should have no problem with a "Russian" type in south Jersey!

@@raregrowsNJ Your have a video of yours?

@@BlackThumbGardens yes check my main

@@brianbaumann1337 all of mine are against a wall or structure, while this one is close to a house it's still quite exposed to the elements, really cool to see. perhaps a pomegranate hedge would work in zone 7

@@paulroy9148 awesome, poms are in my top 5 favorite fruit, whereabouts was it grown?

Someday mine will be that big.

Do you have an indoor setup? Grow lights? Checkout one of my "indoor" videos you can see that I have the cherimoya inside an indoor grow tent for the winter. They also do well as a houseplant by a sunny window, just watch the watering as evaporation indoors is very slow and can lead to root rot

@@raregrowsNJ let me take a look at the videos. I dont have an indoor set up yet.

@@Talal1320 are you grafting a potted tree or an outdoor cold hardy one? Aside from different techniques tbud, cleft, bark, etc are you using parafilm and rubber bands for extra pressure when securing the graft? Make sure to lineup the cambium very well. If you are grafting now in direct sunlight you should cover the grafts with foil for a few weeks to keep the sun from cooking them

"Fruit Mentor" on KZfaq has some excellent citrus grafting videos, might help you with the different techniques

@@backyardsnackyard are these the same kiwi berries on your video short? your fruit gets so much bigger than mine! I wonder if there are different strains out there. lots of fruit dropped from this vine, I'll eventually make a video to show the final size

@@raregrowsNJ yes, the only kiwi berry I have at the moment is 'Issai'. I want to get some Pink Jumbos, as the male (Prince Jumbo) one is supposed to be a great pollination partner for most kiwi berries.

@@ross2398 Spring flowering loquats -> Rose-Ann, Novak, Shambala, Tanaka. Have to look on forums for scions most nurseries only sell trees if they have these at all

@@ross2398 rooting citrus is similar to any other plant humidity and a moist substrate that won't mold or rot I use coconut coir and a humidity cover (old fish tank upside-down over the plants) in the shade

@@raregrowsNJ thanks! I’ll try that!!

​@@ross2398let me know how it turns out!

awesome, just learned that black raspberries are also native in NJ. will have to keep an eye out. also found some Elaeagnus/autumn olive at this park but cant be sure of the fruit quality until October. That one is also invasive!

@@raregrowsNJ Definitely! The berries are obvious but look for the smooth, red stems that turn a powdered purple color. We like picking autumn olives as well, found the best tasting ones near Syracuse and Ithaca, NY. We're currently growing the non-invasive Goumi here so fingers crossed for those!

I wonder if the mandarinquat from seed would have followed had it not succumed to root rot

thanks cant wait to try an actual cultivar

Would be nice to find pecans, I've only seen black walnut in north NJ

yep! it's overwintered indoors in the grow tent (not the outdoor greenhouse)

@@raregrowsNJ nice!! Looks like a fun citrus!

haha understood, these are crunchy! non-astringent. you can let them get soft as well but I prefer them crunchy and they won't taste like chalk when you do eat them crunchy

@@raregrowsNJ lol is the one you have cold hardy? Looking for one that is crunchy and also cold hardy…

@@keresha1222 i'm in zone 7a, it's a "jiro fuyu" which i think is good to zone 6b

i would double check, the nursery I got it from doesnt say what it is grafted on it could be American persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) but that rootstock is hardy which helps the jiro fuyu. i dont think nurseries sell ungrafted jiro fuyu so you dont have to worry

@@raregrowsNJ awesome info! Thanks a lot…I’m in Pennsylvania so i should be good. Thanks again 👍🏼

@@keresha1222 yes it is! And yep it's too cold here so it goes inside

@@keresha1222 diluted white latex paint half water and a couple of drops of copper fungicide

@@Talal1320 awesome, have you tried the fruit yet? kishu is one of the parents used to create satsuma mandarin

Asimina triloba é uma pequena árvore decídua, nativa do sueste da América do Norte, que produz grandes frutos comestíveis de coloração verde-amarelada ou acastanhada na maturação. O género Asimina pertence à família Annonaceae, a mesma da anona, da graviola e de outros frutos cultivados comercialmente.

@@raregrowsNJ obrigada, nasceu sozinha, é possível?

@@isaramos6447 onde está a planta? talvez alguma pessoa tenha árvores próximas e uma semente escapou através de animais. é uma planta popular hoje em dia, mas considerada uma árvore frutífera exótica

Puxa estou feliz então Boa noite

@@raregrowsNJ acho que não, eu nem conhecia a planta

@@Godisincontrol325 I used fresh seeds straight into the pot. I kept the strongest grower

@@raregrowsNJ I see 😀 Thank you 🙏
