Thankyou so much.
BIG THANKS for the information coming from a Jacksonville resident 👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you STEEL PALMS ESTATE!
Great content, you are super knowledgeable. Add more tags to your content specific to the video. Palm pruning, specific names of the palms you cover, get really specific in those tags. Thank you for making this. I just bought a property with a ton of palms on it and this video is excellent. You are awesome.
🌴 always good information thanks !🤙🏽
Thanks for the video, very educational =)
Great job
Thanks for everything! I’m craning in two date palms and want to take care of them
Nice content, thank you not many people on youtube know palm as good as you
Very helpful information! Thanks for the book recommendation too as I live in Northern California.
Thank you and we are happy to help!
Thank you thank you thank you, you have saved my beautiful palm trees!! I have no idea what I’m doing and my husband loves palm trees😵🙂
Love your video brother
I have The cold Hardy Windmill Palms planted at my place in Halifax Nova Scotia 🇨🇦
I over winter for 4 months during the cold season
Very informative 👏👌👍
thanks!
Hi David, your videos are very helpful! I was able to save my pygmy palm by applying one of the fertilizers you show in your video.
I have a Sego Palm that turned brown after the last freeze in Gainesville Fl. What could I do do fix it?
Thanks for info regarding potassium & magnesium needs for my palm tree.
Thank you for watching!
This guy should be a professor! He's awesome
David, your delivery of content is off the charts--8-2-12. Do you advocate staining truck?
Great content . No negativity in all the comments . Interesting
David-you are the man! Can I follow this same fertilization process for palms in containers?
Hope you make more palm content
Thank you for this video. Amazing information and great delivery. Can you please shoot some recommendations for a coconut palm. What type of granule would u use? Also anything eles tíos would help thank un!
Great video, however you might want to give people a heads up with the AG spray since it's got iron in it. Overspray can stain like the dickens if you get it on concrete or block. I actually just bought a gallon of the stuff.
This dude is bad ass
Great Video.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@EarthWorksJax you are welcome. You should do a video on the different "cuts" of Palm tree available. Diamond cut vs. Smooth trunk and other options. That would be informative and helpful.
Nice voice clear and sharp
Use it i think u could make living from it
Hi, thank you for all of the information. I live in Southern CA and was wondering if the suggested 20-20-20 fertilizer is the “go to” regardless of where in the US one is located and the soil type. Thank you.
Gud job brother
Thank you for the direct, clear and concise information! I just planted 3 sabal palms in South Georgia. How long should we soak them twice a day for the first 2 weeks? Is 30 minutes too long? They were sitting in water when we purchased them. And do you ship the products mentioned in this video?
great video...my first palm tree in pot ever! learnt a lot from you. i just potted a two feet palm in cactus, palm, citrus potting mix. Should i add the palm tone now and also add liquid fertilizer every other week?
Give this guy his own show!!! HGTV you listening?!
Mantap terimakasih infonya👍👍🙏
Very informative video. Just had new landscaping done. I'm about to fertilize and wondered if I have to lift the protective plastic covering on top of the dirt before I put the fertilizer; I'm using granules.
Hey Gloria, if the plastic is weed mat your granular should be able to penetrate it.
Just bought a house and I noticed it has 2 palm trees that need TLC . Thanks for this video
I’ve really got to get to your store
Please do! Open 7 days per week!
David, We're also in Jax and wanted to get your help on a few palms I have.
Loved the Video , very Informative, I have a question about Revitalizing the soil in a 20 gallon barrel where a 6 foot Bismark Palm tree has rooted itself. I have been contemplating using Vermicule & perlite at the top of the soil so it eventually soaks into the soil. I have no intention of removing th ep[almt tree from the barrel for the next year or two until i can acquire land to plant it. SO my only alternative righ now is to just reinvigorate the soil as best i can so they can absorb nutrients.. The palm trees have for sure rooted in the entire barrel so these no way for me to remove and replace soill. The water is soaking into the soil 2-3 seconds after i soak it weekly so the soikl does have a thic sandy consistency, not mud, which is a positive thing, i thnik i can extend its life, Any advice is welcome
Would would you recomand for a couple 15 foot queen palms in north WA? They just dont seem to grow, new frawns arnt even opening up anymore. Still nice & green. Average temp here is 48 & we get lots of cloudy/rainy days
Good video big guy, you know bamboo and bizmark palms?
Any info /advise on Bayer/ blue plastic bottle? That work in TampaBay for me- I like organic- I’ll try that
I have a question, you are very knowledgeable about palms. I have a 60-70 foot palm in my yard actually 13 of the them, but I noticed one of them wasn’t growing as fast. The leaves and spear seemed to be browning. I was told to add epsom salt, fertilizer for palms and baking soda to the soil. I added those but realized the epsom salt I added had eucalyptus oil in it 🫣 will that hurt it? And what do you recommend for my palm. They are 80 years old at least.
Appreciate your videos mate , I've got a Mexican fan palm , looks quite ugly but growing about 14' tall , is there anything I should be careful about trimming this type?
I would love to purchase that book where can I find it
Hi thanks for video. I have Pygmy and queen palms. I live in corona California. I have a drip system. Not sure is this is the best irrigation for my palms. I’m concerned with applying fertilizer with a drip system. Would I have to hand water to get the fertilizer to sink in? My palms look weak.
is it safe to use fish emulsion fertilizer near palms? (like on adjacent plants)
Hi David I have a Sylvester palm tree.last spring it bloomed with dots.This year I want to trim them before they bloom as they get rotten.Can you recommend how to remove the them ?
Appreciate your videos, just transplanted a 8 ft tall (not including root ball) mature canary date palm. Live in Southern California and watering every 2-3 days. Any suggestions for fertilizer in a clay soil environment? Much appreciated
Hii I firm palm 🌴 trees too but its hard for me I use pump for irrigation system it cost too much
I’m in Texas and have Mexican & Texas sables. Any suggestions? Thank u
Is it ok to apply fertilizer in winter in Florida? I have been getting mixed responses from different growers. Some say never fertalize in winter but i have a chlorotic palm in my front yard thats asking for it.
What would you do?
Hi David, I planted 5 palms , all of these are transplanted from one house to a different one. Would you suggest fertilizing them while transplanting to the new location? Also, what could i possibly use to reduce the transplant shock?
Very helpful video..Learnt a lot. I potted a pygmy date palm 3 weeks back. I added potting soiling/perlite/worm castings and a 8-2-12 slow release fertilizer during potting. I have it in my patio in big container, it gets direct morning sun for 2-3 hours and then shade. But the edges of the palm leaves are brown crusty/crispy. I am properly watering, even using moisture meter, no pest infestation. Still the ends are browning, curling, splitting into two...do u know what I can do and what's wrong with the plant?
Could possibly be not getting micronutrients try some azomite and the fertilizer you gave it has high nitrogen and potassium content could be burning the plant best of luck hope they pull through
The liquid fertilizer that you showed here in this video. If it fall on my grass will it damage it? and will it stain my cement curves and river walk rocks? that are in my garden where I have my queen palm trees.
Good morning, very good presentation. One question. I have a sylvester Palm. It was planted two month ago, I'm worried about the lack of greening. I live in central Florida. What do you suggest?? (2 feet bark)
Phoenix sylvestris, genetically have a golden orange color in the leaf bases and leaf stems. At times this coloring, can be misunderstood as a nutritional deficiency, however it is not so! Be sure to look out for Magnesium deficiency and Potassium deficiency which can develope if the palm is not fertilized every three months!
@@davidcasella2934 thanks very much David,I appreciate it make pure sense.
Hello do I put copper fungicide on recently planted queen palm
I have a 12-4-12 palm food fertilizer, would this also work?
Great video again.
You mention magnesium deficiency in Fl soil. What about Manganese which that deficiency causes frizzle top on queen palms? Is that as common as magnesium deficiency?
Via David: Magnesium deficiencies are more common and frequent in Phoenix palms, like Phoenix Canariensis and Phoenix Syvestris. This can be seen as yellow on the borders of the palm leaves, on either side of the rachis. A Manganese deficiency will show short, necrotic deformed leaves in the center of the palm, particularly in the new growth! The leaves will also appear to have been burned as the end are brown. A Maganese deficiency is a more severe deficiency, that needs to be corrected in a timely matter, if left untreated, the palm will decline rapidly within several months, whereas a Magnesium deficiency can persist for years without killing the palm.
I'm in Phoenix, AZ and we seem to love queen palms here. Manganese deficiency is a major issue here with them. I recently bought a bag thats 15%mn, 5%mg and 15%s. There isn't a decent looking queen palm almost anywere you find one, they do not like the heat, the soil or the lack of nutrients.
@@datsuntoyy I understand that for sure. Where I live we have the same deficiency. What I did was not only fertilize with normal palm fertilizer but also use Manganese Sulfate Monohydrate Powder from Amazon. You can get 3 lbs for around $20 and it will supplement that mineral specifically so you dont get frizzletop. You still need to feed the regular palm fertilizer because manganese isnt all you need obviously. But that is a great way to help the palms with manganese specifically.
Are yucca trees treated the same way
What’s the difference between the palm nutrientional and the chelated palm liquid?
Hi I have 3 foxtails New Smyrna beach area. They don’t look healthy they’re about 4 or 5 yrs old. One of them has a stunted frond. The other 2 have no new fronds. How can I help them or know f they’re dying. Thank you
Can I water my palms after I apply copper fungicide
Thank you!!!
Just planted a Bottle Palm in front of our SW Florida home. I'm a novice, trying this for the first time. Is this product good for the Bottle Palm? Referring to the Nutritional Spray liquid.
Yes, absolutely
So how many gallons per palm? So 2 gallons in the soil and 1 gallon on the trunk and down the crown by top spear? And you’re doing 4 capfuls per gallon?
I’ve just got my palm nutrition spray, how much do I use for a smaller palms?
Mix 4 cap fulls of Liquid Palm Nutritional to 1 gallon of water. Depends on what you mean by smaller palms? One gallon of the mixed palm Nutritional Spray, will be adequate for palms 5 feet or less and containerized palms. You can also spray the mix on the entire palm, the fronds, stems and trunk as a foliar spray.
Are you SURE you need all of that 20-20-20 spread SO much around that palm? It really looks like OVERKILL. I guess that you know best.
Great info brother. Question: at the base of my bottle palm tree i have bromeliads all around. If i spray the liquid palm nutricional on the trunk and base, will it help the bromeliads or will it harm them? Thanks
David i sent u an email
So it’s 1gal per palm
Is David still with Earth Works Jax? I have a palm tree question.
@FengG0Such a loss.😢
I am in North Florida. I put a fairly large Bismarck palm in about 3 months ago. Full sun. It is not doing well. I have fertilized it 3-4 times...maybe too much. I water it every 2-4 days depending on rain. Where can I get some help on this? My husband and I love this tree more than all other palms and it is front and center of our front yard. Help!
There are many reason why your Bismarck Palm may not be doing well. We recommend bringing photos in to the shop for local customers or you can email photos to earthworksjax@gmail.com and we can help assess the situation virtually.
I heard that Medjool Date can produce edible fruit in Jax area? Is this true ? Enjoy your videos.✌️
Yes. They are cold hardy to 15F. Soft & nutritious Medjool dates in your own yard :)
The Problem is taste. I heard to get a Medjool with great tasting dates it needs to be a pup from another Medjool that has tasty fruit. Growing from seed will most likely not give good results in terms of taste.
Hey Dave when are you going to start your own channel now that you left earhworks?
After his non-compete agreement ends.
What? Nooooo, I just found this channel. How can I find if he has a new channel?
Can you please let me know my my Bismarck palm tree to where the leaves dry don’t but they’re still green why it’s on 25 gallon pond nursery it’s indoor thank you
Autumn off the pot wants wet, so eat got root rot. I cleaned it up and I put a fresh soil I water a little bit. No I wait see what happen do you have any suggestion?
Can you please let me know what’s the best mix with lots of drainage for Bismarck Palm tree I’m in Canada I killed one because he didn’t have a drainage can you please let me know I really appreciate it thank you very much I just want to know what’s the best mix with lots of drainage I got a clay soil
While drainage is indeed important Bismarcks are only cold hardy to 30F. We recommend Wild Earth Mix #3 for most plantings along with Palm-tone.
I have plants in my porch, lots of them, including palms, is anything wrong with doing that?
No. As long as they get the correct amount of light and water. if your porch is open air, that is good for humidity. if it is indoors and air-conditioned your plants may need a humidifier or some time outdoors intermittently
I think I burned up my foxtail. Is there any saving it? Anyone? Help??
Flush soil with lots of water and if using a granular fertilizer see if any can be removed without damaging the root system.
What about coconut palm??
The same regimen.
@@EarthWorksJax oh... Ok, 😊 thx!
