- While in Florida this time I started some jackfruit from seed and planted a few trees before I left. In this video, I demonstrate the super simple process and reveal some tidbits about this delicious tropical fruit. In only 2-3 years you can have a jackfruit tree that produces fruit if conditions are right.

Thanks for sharing. I just got 2 jackfruit trees growing. Threw the seeds in the ground for as fertilizer for my roses but they grew anyway. Took me a few months to realize that they are jackfruit trees. Pleasant surprise.
Yes, they really want to grow.
Super food it grows a lot here in Jamaica u can cook it ,cook the seed and eat too ,along with the flesh.
Please explain how to cook and eat
Enjoy the lovely StPete weather while you still can. You're old stomping grounds, Ohio, is getting anywhere from 2-6 inches of snow overnight. 😎 Gotta love the Midwest.
I've always wondered about the jackfruit. I've seen them in stores. I'll have to pick one up and try it.
Where have you seen them in stores? In the north?
@@HardcoreSustainable in Ohio I have seen them in Giant Eagles occasionally (though, you can't count on them being there). And, there's a store in Cincinnati called "Jungle Jim's" that has them every time I go (which is about once a year). Jim's has a HUGE produce section that has fruits & veg from all over the world.
Great video, Dan. I completely understand how warm winter weather is important.
My goal is to set up a tropical greenhouse and jackfruit is on my list of things to try in it. I hear that they can handle pretty aggressive pruning, at least.
If you've ever seen Pete Kanaris' videos I think he might be starting some in a greenhouse/hoophouse. But he's in Florida.
@@HardcoreSustainable Yeah. Watch his stuff all the time. Definitely warmer there than here, but I think I can pull it off. If not, I'll at least get to eat some delicious jackfruit in order to collect some seeds.
If you like Jackfruit, you’ll love Longans. You have to try it. Longans and Rambutans. Mangosteens are also very delicious and rare to find-tastes similar to Lychee but so much fruitier (probably the best).
So many delicious tropical fruits available. And so many you can grow in Florida but won't find in a grocery store.
Oh good, a new video 😊
great video ....nice to see you...the land looks fabulous ...
Wish things like this would grow back here in Missouri. But yah winters are quite chilly. This last one was burrrrrr ❄ for sure. Good to see more vids 👍
I know. I wish we could grow more fruit here. What we can grow tastes nowhere as close to as good as the tropical fruits.
Try to make jackfruit pickle it's very delicious. 😅
Great to see you back Dan, Jackfruit is used in a few vegan recipes as its said to take up flavours pretty well. Never actually tried it but I think its available in tins.
Fresh jackfruit reminds me of bubblegum lol very taste it fruit .... I’ve never had it in a savoury way 🤔
Yes, it's been a while. You can make vegan pulled pork sandwiches. I suppose if I had an abundance of jackfruit, I'd do that, but it's so good straight, I end up eating it like that all the time.
@@HardcoreSustainable I might have to try some now!
Loved this video, I live in West Central Florida and I have lemongrass, Moringa trees, loquat tree, tons of herbs and sweet potatoes, and a banana tree, summer time is really the hardest time to garden here, you just need to know what to grow when, I think I need to add jackfruit to my garden, thanks for sharing,🌱🌱🌱🌱
Jackfruit is definitely something to grow if the climate is right for it. Delicious fruit!
Yes, Juicy fruit gum
Its related to Mulbery. they come from same family. Secondly you cook it like potatoes if the fruit is raw.
How is Banjo?
I'm sad to inform you that Banjo was hit and killed by a car last December while in the care of a friend. I'd gone to Florida to scope out a place to stay that was safe during covid and when I was on the way back I found out she had died. It was a major blow to me and my life is not the same without her. I'm sorry. She was a part of my channel too and I loved her immensely.
@@HardcoreSustainable I’m so so sorry for your lost 😞. I’m very sad 😞
What’s going on ?? 🧐
I have been talking about jackfruit over the phone .... I hang up and see something about jackfruit in notification and for a moment thought big brother has been listening in .! I soon realised its one of your videos and your not big brother or big sister 🥴😂
That's funny. Just coincidence I guess. jackfruit is pretty amazing.
@@HardcoreSustainable I’ve only tried it once from fresh and loved it Here in the U.K. its an abundance of apples n pears lol . The supermarkets sell the tins and if I had never tried it from fresh, then preserved in salt water would not seem so alien to me .
After I get a decent greenhouse dug up really deep. I’m wanting to dig a 30-40 foot deep greenhouse.
Use the first 30 to 38 seconds as a template for an introduction to all your videos
I'm not sure if I would lose people but it might be nice to have it every once in a while. I'm glad you liked it.
Any updates?
I planted some out at the farm I volunteer at, but I don't live in FL over the winter and they got overgrown by weeds during the 7 months I was gone. But I've known others that have started jackfruit and theirs grew fine. You really need to tend to them until they get big enough to grow on their own.
@@HardcoreSustainable thank you!! Great video!
ITS VEGETABLE WHEN UNRIPE AND FRUIT WHEN RIPE. SEEDS ARE EDIBLE
