Oh know I’m getting the urge to collect persimmons “Pokémon gotta catch em all”
Prok and Saijo is all you need tbh.
Nice tree I have a fuyu persimmon tree I’m having red wasps chewing holes in my persimmons causing fruit drop
Ross, Glad you have a decent fruit set on your persimmons. From my limited experience the trees abort less as they get older, plus excessive rains from hurricanes here in the SE USA seem to cause more drops. This is a good year for persimmons so far. Ichi-Ki-Kei-Jiro has been a heavy setter for me...probably should have thinned out in certain seasons. I only grow the non-astringent Asians plus a wild chance seedling which is believe it or not quite good. And persimmons have some big gorgeous glossy green foliage, especially Asians. Update us as the season progresses. Randy/GA
Really promising fruit set this year Ross 👍
Good collection enjoyed the video
I wonder if further reduction or thinning needs to take place by the husbandry
Just planted a Jiro, Saijo, & Hachiya close to each other on the south side zone 6B NJ. I hope they do not take several years to fruit.
3 years.
@@RossRaddi ok 👍, that sounds great.
@@RossRaddi I planted cherry tree threes @3” years ago & they just now started making miniature cherries, I hope the develop this year , also to my “surprise” a few cherry trees I planted last year also have a lot of cherries on them. I thought they would take 4 -7 years.
Hi Ross, I am so glad you have the same ichi jiro tree as me. I am struggling with fruit drop in New England zone 6b. It’s been in the ground for 6 seasons now and I am so sad and discouraged. What is your routine with pruning and watering. I am not sure if I have over pruned or over or under watered. I only have about 10 fruits left and experiencing the second waive of fruit drop. Pleas help.
These things can just take time. Took 7 years for my Rosseyanka. Typically Asian persimmons are more precocious though. Are you sure it's labeled right? Send me photos of your tree.
@@RossRaddi hmmm I can’t upload photos for some reason.
@@saraphal1293 COntact me on IG, FB or email.
my jiro is holding fruit for the first time in zone 7a when do you pick them?
5:59 How large do you expect that Saijo to grow? I hear they can be huge trees.
It's a normal sized Asian persimmon tree. Most of mine are easily maintained at 8-10 ft.
I am having trouble establishing persimmon trees that ihave purchased when planting in the ground. I would like to plant seeds directly in the ground. Can you sell me some proc seeds as you're eating the fruits? I had luck last year growing a few seedlings from seed and would like more and the proc sounds great. I know the progeny will not be the same but should be interesting. Thanks.
Hi Ross! I have an idea and I'd like your opinion on it. I live in Zone 7A NJ and want to put citrus (kumquats, owari satsuma, meyer lemons) and fig trees in the ground, specifically later varieties like Figo Preto and White Madeira in order to give them an early start while also taking advantage of them being in ground. I am thinking that a way to do so is to put a retractable pergola frame around them and throw some 6 mil clear plastic over it, creating a greenhouse that can be disassembled in the warmer months.
Fig Trees:
The fig trees would have their own frame with a tarp (light-blocking) around it that would protect them from winds and frost without trapping too much heat. Once I want them to come out of dormancy, I'd replace the tarp covering with a clear 6 mil plastic sheet, effectively giving them a headstart while also taking advantage of them being in-ground, giving them far more resources than if they were in pots in a greenhouse. It would be disassembled when the spring starts to get warmer and reassembled when I want to extend the growing season.
Citrus Trees:
The citrus trees would have the same setup except the covering would have to always be the 6 mil clear plastic during the cold months due to their constant need for light and warmth. I'd probably open it up a little bit on days that aren't too cold to allow the citrus to gain some color. It would be disassembled when the spring starts to get warmer and reassembled when it gets too cold.
Both setups would have some form of supplemental heating and a thermostat.
Once again, I'd love your opinion on this idea. Thank you very much!
The fig idea will work. The citrus I am worried about them surviving. One layer of plastic is not enough in a 7a without a heat source.
@@RossRaddi I plan on using an external heat source only at night because I think it would be warm enough in the day to not need it active. Do you have any recommendations for factors like plastic thickness, thermostats, etc? I love your videos by the way!
How do you protect from squirrels?
I am having a real hard time. Just picked up some traps.
