    Hi George, those potatoes in the ground are ready to harvest, even the ones in the grow bags could be harvested. As a general rule the soonest potatoes are best harvested is when the leaves start to yellow. Now is a good time to be putting in broccoli, cauliflower, bok choy and the like - you might as well use the space over winter. By the way, I believe Daleys will have some grafted green sapote trees in stock soon, but on mamey sapote rootstock unfortunately.

      I was about to harvest the ground potatoes, I bought the potatoes from Coles on sale in the organic section to use as seed potatoes. Thanks for the info on Daleys!

    Your plants seem to be coping OK with the heat. I will assess my plants tomorrow to see how they fared today.

    Enjoyed the high heat walkabout, we could do with a bit of that here lol. Worrying to see the mango at the end wilting 🤔

      We're back to spring like weather overnight, tonight's low is just 12c. The Manila mango went on a rollercoaster ride today, from part recovery in the morning to much worse than what was shown in the video later in the day. It might be that I overwatered it due to the expected hot weather, but it's planted in perfectly draining soil, so not sure.

    On our end, the weather is always wet/abnormal, then there's a day with good weather full of sun and then the next day, wet weather again.. The government is bullsh*ting the weather!😁

    Oh wow the heat wave moved to you Guys here in the West where I am 45 for 3 days. too too hot but the plants are amazing. a fair bit of scorch but surviving. Your tropicals will love the warm nights.

      I'd be watering from morning to night everyday with regular 45C. Tonight we sleep without the A/C, 19C and no humidity!

    Hi George! I appreciate the very useful information that no one gives. What is the net kind of thing on the ground for the sugar apple tree? 7:09
    What variety is your macadamia tree? Is it dwarf? 13:34

    • @RealLifeFruitopia
      @RealLifeFruitopia  7 месяцев назад +1

      I place mesh cut outs around newly planted trees to stop the birds from scratching the straw and compost away from the tree. The macadamia is a 12 yo full height seedling, not sure of the variety.

    Melbourne weather seems a lot like San Diego, rarely cold, and rarely hot.

    • @RealLifeFruitopia
      @RealLifeFruitopia  7 месяцев назад

      San Diego is Zone 9-10, Melbourne is Zone 9b, more like the SF Bay area.

    I live in North Central Florida where we get a couple of frosts a year. I might try a white Sapote.

    Garden looks great. We call it Jerusalem Artichoke here in Florida but maybe other states use another name.
