@@TheSHOP411 We have a plum tree here that's the same way. Produces beautiful plums for 3 weeks, then the bugs move in and wreck the whole tree. (or so my neighbors tell me, this is my first season here).
@@Valorius my plum tree does the same thing. The squirrels are my nemesis though. Every morning when I don't work, I come out my front door like a sniper. 5hey run like their tails are on fire when they see me.
I found the highest yield early summer black cherry tree, along with 15 more that are medium to high yield but still red. Also hate howa ton of people think they are poison. 😒
These are some of the amazing treats of early summer. We had a zero harvest this year due to a hard freeze I March. We lost a lot of fruit in that freeze. One of the most prized products here in the south made with black cherry is Cherry Bounce. It's a fine liquor made from black cherry wine. I'm partial to the ice cream.
That's an incredible cherry tree! I haven't had any success trying to grow cherries over here in Georgia. Even the low chill hour varieties that are supposed to do well here. All I can figure is they don't like the humidity over here?
You have these in Georgia. This is a wild growing variety. Prunis serotina. They grow all over the south east. They don't look anything like the cultivars that grow up north. We have thousands of the growing on our properties.
I’m in Columbia, South Carolina and these grow everywhere Wild. Prunus serotina.. black cherry tree I promise you they’re all over Georgia Florida Tennessee etc they like shade but will reach out to the sun forest edge kinda tree
Hi ! I have a cherry tree in my yard, but I'm not sure what kind it's about 15 years old ,and this is the first year I've noticed cherries on it. Lol, but the bark is horizontal,and stripped, and a greyish ,white a little greenish hue. The cherries look like the ones you picked. The tree is very tall now about 25 ,or 30 ft tall. In the spring it has very pretty white flower spikes. Can you tell me by this description what type cherry tree this is ?
Great video. I find it very hard to remove the pit bc they are so tiny. Just confirming, you keep the pits while making jelly correct? Also, could a tincture be made with the cherries unpitted without any poisons released (like an elderberry)?
I bash them to make the juice and I discard the seed, stems and anything besides the juices. If I was fermenting them for wine, I wouldn't worry too much but in this case, I get rid of the refuse. A potato smasher works well to bash them
I love making jelly so easy fun and yummy
I'm going to do black berry and blueberry jellies this weekend. Can't wait
@@TheSHOP411 my mouth is watering 😋
oh man i love me a good black cherry!
They are there and gone before you know it. Gotta be on your toes to catch 'em at the right time.

@@DiggingForHealth give it a Google search. You'll start seeing them all over.

I'm cooking dinner right now. I will help you out real soon. Give me a few.
@@TheSHOP411 no worries ! thank you ! whenever you have time. ☺️
I wish I could send you a picture of it somehow. The bark is really beautiful.
Send a picture to jjvhomesteadstudy@gmail.com . I will make a video that shows how to identify a black cherry soon. It's pretty easy.
What type of blueberries are those
Premier, Titan, and Brightwell.
