I have a lot better success growing my coffee plants when i added volcanic rock dust to the soil. about 1/3 of volume. It helps supply iron and minerals to the plant.
A great thing to use for iron hungry plants like roses (or coffee) is to go to your local mechanic and ask for his filings from when he turns brake discs and drums.
Sprinkle this at the base of the plant and if possible, sprinkle some at the bottom of the hole when the plant is initially planted. The fine shavings slowly break down in the soil and are a great source of iron.
Great tip!
We once had great access to whole beans and kinda got hooked on Tanzanian Peaberry. We lived in the desert so out water was slightly alkalide. Because of the higher initial Ph, when it was used to make our coffee, the end result was a smooth, wonderful brew that was far less acidic that when we used a neutral Ph water.
Just a thought
I purchased coffee grown in Davie from a little farmers market. It was years ago and the person who had grown it was a professor at Broward college or Nova. I have gone back repeatedly but they don"t supply them anymore. It was good coffee.
That's amazing. Did not know that. I need to learn more and find that professor. "-)
Thank you arabica can grow anywhere but it takes you to care about it. I grow mine at 1350m above sea level.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Would love an update
Thanks for posting the video .. I will be planting coffee soon in Brevard County florida .How are your coffee plants doing now in 2021 ??
Hello Pepe, How can I buy your low level coffee beans to plant in Arizona. I would like to try it here.
Thanks
Do I really need to get all of those or do you think I could just get like one or two for it to grow good?
Container grown plants benefit highly from the mycorhizae . You can skip the biochar. Use a good acid organic fertilizer and get the citrus nutritional spray. That would be the minimum love you can give and keep her happy.
Loved this video, what is the name of that seaweed soluble fertilizer and where did u buy it? Thanks!!!!!

Thanks, glad it was helpful.
Thank you
i have small Arabica Coffee plant i bought it has like 7 in one pot should i split them and repot them separately
That would be better than all together.
I just bought an arabica but it came with brown spots and some edges, what do I do to help it heal?
Try a drench with Minerals and increase P and K. Also once a month Foliar sprays with P and K. Should help unless the spots are due to fungi or bacterial pathogens. In that case maybe cooper sprays.
Do you charge your biochar before adding it to your ground.
I like to use mycorrhizae fungi yes.
Good morning, Mr. Pepe! Good morning, y'all!
While I live in Central NJ, I continue to have (un?)reasonable success with growing and maintaining "plants from alien climes" in my apartment. Also, I'm addicted to coffee, especially joe I've brewed at home (I'm frugal and politely fussy about flavor!).
Mr. Pepe, Challenge Accepted!
PS
Do birds help scale and/or aphids spread, or is it a good thing that they (house finches) chill out in my largest tree (Ficus religiosa, seed-grown,7-8 years old)? If I'm not out there DAILY, at dawn, with the neem oil and dish soap spray, that daggone scale gets busy with their webs in a crook or three IMMEDIATELY! Many thanks, if you've got any tips.
It is possible for birds to spread scale. They could pick some up on the legs or in the feathers and transport them to plants as they travel. Your plants are indoors so should not be too serious of a problem. Neem will help control scale depending on the type of scale. Armored scales are not soft bodied and need a stronger pesticide. With birds most pesticides are highly toxic so be cautions. All the best happy growing. :-)
@@Pepesplants Hi there! Thank you for responding!
Location: Actually, I take "everybody" out to the balcony during the summer. The birds, singly, and as a couple, enjoy that tree (which is approximately 8" taller than my 5'5").
Bird Activity: I see them do a bit of pecking at the branches, but the tree doesn't seem wounded at all. What I do see, if I'm lazy the day and/or 2 before, is scale webbing "takin holt," as my grandmother would say. And then I proceed to spray the tree and soil until the leaves drip.
Bird Activity, sub 1: I really hope those publicly romantic finches are not allergic to my homemade spray.
Bird Activity, sub 2: Do you have suggestions for other organic or "natural" pesticides that won't harm birds (and my cat, even though she steers clear of all of the plants, blessed animal that she is)? Also, would those pesticides *also* act as avian female pheromones (I'm just sayin! "Ain't Spring BIN over, chick? Good gracious!")?😁😂
Hello, new to your channel. Are you still growing arabica in south Florida? I have some questions.
Yes I am!
@@Pepesplants I’m not up on how CZcams really works,, is there somewhere i can send you photos to get your opinion of what the issue might be with my plants, as a potential problem arises? Right now I’m battling a white fuzzy hairy growth on some of my plants. I started with fungicide, but now I’m using neem oil. I have about 1700 plants growing right now next to Lake Okeechobee.

Hi Pepe
I have coffee arabica that have 2 years old in the pot. A brown color and leaf drying occurred throughout all leaf starting from tip backwards stems. Please help me to rescue my plant.
Maybe it's time to refresh the soil and re pot or move to a larger container. Hard to help without seeing the plant.
