  • The coffee tree is getting a hair cut, and a thinning out because it is becoming super clogged up with growth and lack of airflow, sunlight, and increase the overall health of the tree. Check out our new clothing line! http:www.freshpickedapparel.com

    1:37 “I’ve already pruned out 50-60% of the chaos” LOL!! I haven’t grown coffee before, but following all the vids you have done on coffee trees Luke, It seems coffee can be an “experience” to grow! I’m tentatively thinking of having a go myself-even if it doesn’t fruit, it looks to be a beautiful indoor plant!

    hey was just going to say, if you dont want to root your cuttings dont waster them. the leaves make amazing and super healthy tea, fresh or dried. Look up some stuff in Ethiopia, theyve been doing tea from coffee leaves for a millenia. It's truly amazing:) We have it all them time, I have a big tree down here in south florida:) cheers

    I topiaried my coffee tree! I love it. Originally the pot had two stems but it looked unbalanced. I took out the smaller stem and removed lower branches. The tree now lives in my bedroom and is nearly at ceiling height. I've snipped off more of the lower branches and also cut the branches back a bit so we're not competing with it when getting into bed!

    Luke you are exactly right indoor plants need to be pruned well especially for getting enough sun can't air flow.
    On a side note another good reason to grow a coffee tree inside is that it makes a nice privacy curtain 😎😎

    I just wanted to say I've grown coffee trees for 12+ years, they flowered, fruited, I planted many of the beans and made approximately 40 vigorous saplings (which was a mistake, I was giving armloads of the things to anyone that would take them!) and yet I still learned so much from this video that I didn't know. When I started with coffee trees it was impossible to find any information on keeping them indoors so I'm delighted to see such a helpful guide! Thank you for taking the time to make this.

    I bought my tree before CZcams or google or even the internet took place so I had no info on how to grow it, now I have a 6 feet tall tree with a central trunk and foliage on the top. I lost all the side leaves and branches because of luck of light, water/humidity and pruning. I don’t think I can do anything about it now but I was just wondering since this tree is so resilient if I could possibly cut its trunk at a meter or so and hope it will survive 🤪 thanks for your informative video!

    We have a coffee tree, unfortunately we don’t know which variety but in the winter, the leaves really start drying up and falling off. We live in WA. and it’s of course indoors but it really struggles when it cools down. Is it lack of light or warmth? I worry about our water too. I just want to get it healthy. It’s really tall, maybe copping off the top will help??

  • @rmjames83
    @rmjames83 Před 5 lety

    Just a couple of questions-are you still trying to take this plant outside in the summer-or does it have a “permanent” summer/winter position? I imagine it would be getting hard to move it! You also said when anything gets damaged, it forks, and forks again-will the plant consider the pruning damage, and cause it to fork more?? Will the pruning set back fruiting and flowing?-I know it’s a “mature” fruiting plant, but just wondering if it would reduce the fruit? Finally, I would have thought the tree could possibly take a bit of a hit from this pruning-should the pruning be done a particular time (I am assuming ur doing this now in your spring) and, can you recommend that any specific aftercare should be done/not-ie should u fertilise? Anything else?
