Can I suggest growing some strawberries underneath your asparagus. I’ve found that my asparagus does extremely well with it as a companion planting. I am gathering more berries and spears than before
@@MrThumper1440 I am pretty sure they are Festival. Our trick is that all the strawberry tops that we don’t eat, get buried in that bed. The plants are doing great, producing more than ever and new plants are always emerging.
I've watched this video about 6 times. And again this morning. Really need to get myself in to work but can't stop absorbing all this fascinating into. Thank you so much!
Love your passion and excitement! Recently purchased some of your chomolia cuttings and am looking forward to trying it! Thanks for sharing and keep growing! 👍🌿💚
The recording quality is great here. At one point I swore there were birds above me, never mind I was inside! Of course I want one of everything. Zone 9A north of Tampa.
I am on the Treasure Coast of east Florida and I have been growing a large asparagus plant continually for 3 years now and this year I got a pretty decent harvest from it with very tender and tasty shoots. I didn't know it was supposed to be difficult because I have had no problem at all. I got the plant(s) in a 6 pack from Walmart and just put the container right in a self watering planter box. Iij n fact I was even able to get 2 new plants this year from planting the seeds of my current one. The new plants are very small right now but are doing well.
Awesome video brother! I'm up in lake city growing all kind of tropicals and traditional fruits . I would love to get one of those mulberry from you. Even just a cutting! Thank you in advance! Btw I have a white shatoot i can trade!
Pakistani mulberries are amazing! On my land the first years after my mulberry trees began to produce the fruits were disapointing; skinny, quite sweet but flavorless...then all of a sudden they began to produce awesome fruits! Gigantic fleshy delicious mulberries! The trees just needed some time to adjust to my soil...
Wow! This was an amazing video! You have so many varieties of bananas and it was neat to learn about some of the more rare plants and fruits. Great video!
This information is Gold and what you are doing is the Lord's work. I live in central Florida. Thank you. I Think I've seen you on Pete's channel. I plan on ordering some stuff from you. God bless!
I live in bartow we are only 20 min apart. i have i very similar situation with the heat in my yard, my yard is on a hill in between a steaming canal and a sun baked road so even when the surrounding areas got down to 26 my papayas didnt even get burned. Also there is a 60 well 40 foot( they pruned it) mango tree across the canal. Been there for 40 years the lady said. And its very Exposed. I would love to come over and see what tou got going on. My food forest is only about 2 years old and most of it is only a year to 6 months old but its really starting to take off. I could gain alot by picking your brain... guess thats what your vids are for, glad i found your channel. Still would love to see it in person that would be dope.
I finally found you Josh! Really interesting you're mainly growing Sh3640 and namwah, because I spent the last few years trialing a bunch of bananas varieties in 9A(citrus county), and Namwah, SH3640 and Orinoco stood out to me as being the best at recovering from heavy frost. Though, the Orinoco is just a guess because its a banana I find growing and fruiting in wild near kings bay, and it makes very square angular bananas, so I figured it was Orinoco. Even out of these 3 Namwah seems to be the best at handling cold ime. I really want some of the plants you showed in this video for my 1acre food forest, Ill keep an eye on your store, but I would rather pick up.
Dude, love the video and what you're doing. If you want mangosteens in Florida, talk to Adam at Flying Fox Farm in Sanford. He's big on garcinias and plinias.
Wow amazing video . Im from lakeworth florida and Im planting tropical fruits . Its so relaxing . Thanks for your video I gain knowledge that I cam apply those on my yard🥰😊
I love what you have growing on. I am trying to do the same thing here in the virgin islands. The frur tree and other tree our local nursery don't have and other farmer in my area are not growing. Keep us posted on when you web site is up, because I need some of those plants.
Awesome video! I love mangoes from my home town in the Dominican Republic which I think they're pretty close to be some of the best ones I ever tasted - can't compare to any variety available here in the United States.😊
Thank you for sharing your botanical natural food garden. Many of the crops you grow I do know them because I used to live in a topical island. And most of life while growing up surrounded by the jungles. Where food was everywhere especially the breadfruit trees and just many many plants like coconuts are always available. Sad thing tho, there are more different types of pest that migrated into the island and is killing the coconut palm called the Rhino Beetle. And many other types of insects that I’ve never seen before. Anyways, you have such a beautiful food garden.
It’s heaven to be able to grow this ! I also love mangosteens but it take forever to grow n rambutan .. wish there a way of grafting to make more compact n bare lots of fruits
Excellent!! I may be ordering rom him in the future! We need more like him! I noticed on many of his bananas the lowers leaves are falling down before they are done, this can indicate a calcium deficiency possibly too acidic soils preventing nutrient uptake.
There are so many things that I want to order from you! Any idea when items will be back in stock? How about the Mulberry? Will cuttings be available? I live in Lake County, FL and our climates/soil are likely fairly similar.
Wow! You are so knowledgeable and you remember all of your trees names too. Outstanding ! BTW, I just bought an IABU tree. Do I need 2 trees to cross pollinate in order to get fruits?
Hello! Thank you so much for your awesome videos. I was wondering if you ever sell cuttings or plants of the skinner mulberry? I live in AZ and I would love to see how it grows here
Great project with awesome variety. In my experience Maha Chanok produces more predictable and over a longer period than Nom Doc. They are my top 2 from the roughly 15 varieties I grow.
Believe it or not I once saw a fruiting mangosteen tree in Lake Alfred...but I do know some farms in South Florida pull it off, Miami Fruit, for example, Everglades Farms too, I'm pretty sure.
How do you go about finding rare varieties of alternative food crops? I search the net tirelessly for rare varieties of taro, malanga, edible dahlias, etc. However I almost cannot hardly ever find any. I'm everywhere on forums and websites like permies etc asking for these things. I own a small edible exotics nursery in Northern Florida and want to provide super rare alternative crops as well. Look forward to hopefully talking with you.
Not an expert but I think they will sprout a new shoot at the base of the plant. Most people will chop down the original banana cut it into small pieces and use it to feed the new sprouts. Placed around the new plant as one would do with mulch.
Así es, se hace para que la fuerza de la planta se concentre en la que va a dar el fruto. Tampoco hay que dejar que demasiadas plantas crezcan. Por la misma razón, así dará frutos más grandes y más rápido. Se puede propagar la planta tomando los brotes. Recomiendo buscar videos que muestran como se hace.
Hello and thanks for your video. Woudlike to’ buy seeds. I buy in repubblica domenicana land and i want to make a food forest With your seeds.do you have a web Page Sherman ti buy ? THANKS KAI
Hello!! New subscriber. I am in Brevard 9b/10a. I am growing UC-157 F1 and F2 asparagus for 4 years straight. I am very interested in checking out your website for the perennial kale and other things. I garden in a half acre. We harvested 466 lbs of food last year!

How are they growing for you? Be sure they are getting some shade this time of year!
The recording quality is great here. At one point I swore there were birds above me, never mind I was inside! Of course I want one of everything. Zone 9A north of Tampa.
Thanks!

I was hoping for a harvest also. It’s suddenly died after growing in the canopy of many palms..

I live in Port St Lucie and I am growing asparagus in grow bags.
How’s that working for you?
@@floridafreeliving I had my first harvest this year. Asparagus takes 3 years before being able to harvest. Using shade cloth has been the key.
I’m in Lake Worth Florida where are you from Lake Worth? Would love to come see your property.
Are you in central Florida? I'm in Orlando and I can't grow quarter of what you are growing.

I was told that banana trees only give one crop per tree. So do you remove the tree once the harvest is done and plant another one?
