Wow those pots are huge. Those trees are so mature. It's good to see how big some trees can get.
I have a feeling many of those are rooted into the ground , regardless of that fabric ground cloth. Actually as I continue to watch yes I see you are showing the ones rooting into the soil. Good job Paul. Thumbs up.
Pot Paradise.
Containers are also a great place to start seedlings. Once u verify the fruit quality, then in the ground goes, if u have room. I started an Alano sapodilla seedling from that Excalibur trees fruit 2 years ago and its in a 25gal. For sure Dragon fruit in a pot is the way to go. Just up loaded a short that show how it produced tons of flowers with fallen Avacado fertilizing.
Wow this is awesome!! I was scolded in a forum for planting peach trees in pots. Told they will never reach their potential and that I'm wasting time and energy. Well I live in a zone with late freezes so I have to bring them in when it happens so the buds aren't killed. Maybe one day I'll have to buy a machine to move them but I don't care lol!!
Nice! What gallon size are your pots?
Aren't all those trees just rooting into the ground lol? I don't think she said this but if you put the trees on that black mat it slows the roots from going into the ground from the pot. If you put them on the grass they go straight into the ground fast! I keep my potted mango trees on pallets or the black mats.
For some trees yes. But, she said that they move / and-or up pot the trees. So, for the ones on the black mat she was fairly sure I think that they were not rooted into the ground. There are obviously many (23min-25min) that the roots found their way to the ground. However, it does sound like they do make efforts to try to at least move pots (didn't mention any type of schedule) and then also up pot. If this was not something they were at least trying to make some effort to do then they would not be able to sell anything. So, no... I don't think it is correct that "all those trees just root[ed] into the ground". Yes, clearly many are that they just lost control over... but no not "all".
Great video Paul, they have a variety of jackfruit that not many people know about that taste like sweet pineapple and is more dwarf than COCHIN , this jackfruit is CRISTELA .
I have seedling ready to throw fruit next fruiting season, it had the male flowers this season. I have no idea the cultivar Whole Foods sold 2-3 years ago. My question is do I get to name it do they vary much from seed?
Fabulous nursery thanks for sharing 🌳
Love this place.
Thank you for sharing.
Wow thanks for sharing
Lovely video very informative and you asked many great questions !!
Thanks for doing what you do
Great video love those trees 🌳
Amazing seeing these in containers!
So beautiful, i love them.
Wow amazing
I really enjoyed this!
Beautiful 🎉 tour person did wonderful job
Hahaha I was just looking at them on YELP! You are inspiring Paul thank you, for these tours!
Amazing Stuff
Amazing!!
Pretty cool
From where you got these containers/pots? What is there material?
IM BETTING SHE USES WILD HOG DUNG FOR MANURE. THAT STUFF IS LOADED WITH NUTRIENTS.
How are they watering all these trees???
i have a Mamey Zapote seeding on a 25 gallon pot, hope it gives me fruit someday.. maybe i can move it to a bigger pot at some point but not more than 40 gallon, those 100 gallon pots look massive.
Shalom paul. Your tour guide have a vast knowledge and a nice acccent
Wha ‘‘twas the red varieties jackfruit she said was excellent
Have you ever heard of Everglades Farms and purchased from them? I’d love to see their farm
❤❤❤❤❤
Beautiful place, wish I had known about them sooner! I would love to know where do they get their pots, it's almost impossible to find 40gal+ pots for my trees.
This is awesome! Where do you buy those containers?
this is insane
The plants in the big pots dont go into shock when moved and planted in the ground?
Man getting gems already I’m only seconds into the video. Just last week I lost another papaya that was in a container I think I’m done growing them In containers
My grand Nain and Dwarf Cavendish banana plants are booming in my containers. They would def be better in the ground. But I actually just uploaded a “pup” removal video. I have a Red Haven Peach as well as an Early Elberta in a container. They’re doing great
I just subscribed to your channel 🥰
I am going to Sub you too. I have a mystery dwarf dual purpose banana possibly Thai. Bananas go crazy in the ground here in SFL.
@@Shannie2003 thank you kindly!
Even more fine if the roots get to grow through pot holes and into ground.
Shalom ❤🙏🏻
I need something that can grow in a pot but for zone 7 without dragging in and out
Great vid Paul. Can you ask them where they source these huge pots from?
I got some at a local garden store
@FruitfulTrees ok but they must have a staunch supplier for the high demand of huge mature fruit trees they stock. I'm not in the USA but if you could get their source maybe I could order online & have them shipped to Barbados.
You can use a round preformed garden pond made out of poly plastic and drill some holes in the bottom.
@@cyrusp100 ok thanks
She said she fertilizes every three months...I would like to know specifically what type of fertilizer and how much? Same with the type of spray she uses on leaves and how often
i would love to know too
The easiest thing to do would be to go to a nursery and see what they have hooked up on their watering cart and go buy it. Get a fertilizer injector by Chapin for about $20 , a 16 or 24 ounce and it’s simple to connect and operate. I use it and its great.
The whole idea of trees thriving in pots is a failure here. Unfortunately. The trees have sneakily sent a few roots deep into the ground, and the earth is providing them with natural fertilizer.
I grow papayas successfully in pots 25 gallon
Can you plant the fruit trees in large containers like a 100 gallon to start with instead of having to change the pots later
it would take a lot of water to do that because in a pot the water drains that's why it's best to plant it in a small pot first and upsize them
hello,
question: do you cut/trim the roots of the mango trees?
thanks for the video
I don't but if you are moving it sometimes. you should especially if it is root bound.
@@FruitfulTrees ok, thanks
Where is this place?
I saw people growing bananas in pots also papayas
Where do they get the big pots
look at garden stores
How are those big 400 gallon containers draining? Is there a special way to make the holes?
most posts will hae them but if not just cut some holes
@@FruitfulTreesthanks. I'm looking to get trees in my country. How do you know how many gallons you need to for bigger trees like mangos and avocado vs smaller trees like orange and lemons? Also would they do find in those big containers for like 30 years?
The Zill looks like it is busting through
How about fabric grow bags will it work
Amazingly. Have dwarf to semi dwarfs in 25 to 50 gallon just doing amazing. For some trees you can just break the roots in winter if you have to move the tree
i wonder you have to fertilize lot more with potted fruit tree compare to in-ground trees? And how often you have to change the soil in the pot?
these are good questions that he should ask the lady!
I would also like to know
You guys are using the term “root bound” the wrong way. The term actually means a plant that has been in a pot that is too small for too long and the roots wrap around themselves and get tangled and even when you take them out the pot and put them in the ground, the roots will not spread out, and the plants will often fare very poorly or even die. This happens at nurseries all the time, especially with small plants that are left in small pots too long.
It is true that if you leave plants in a pot too long and they grow roots out the drain hole that is a problem. Mostly because it clogs the drain hole and the water will stay in the pot and rot the roots. But that is not root bound. Although any plant like that is probably also root bound because they have been in that pot too long.
Soil type?
Need to see a demo video of how you lift a 100G mango pot for a customer. That thing is easily weight 1000lbs . How in the world do you lift it?????
Imagine a Bobcat with a grabber attachment that lifts the pot. Or a smaller grabber to grab the tree trunk (protected of course) and fully up root the tree. Then you clean the roots untangle them, trim if needed and repot.
Probably, All pots are broken and roots are in the ground from the base of the pot 😵💫
