Thanks I learned some from your vid since I'm starting to plant jackfruit in my farm
Good job ❤
All the way watching from east Africa Uganda thanks mum ❤
Oh wow, that's amazing! Thanks for commenting Morgan 😊 Do you grow fruit too?
Super cool. Since watching these pruning videos I have been more mindful and have done a lot of pruning on my trees.
Thanks Will, whilst it is a ongoing requirement it protects the trees in strong winds and makes picking the fruit so much easier.
Very informative videos , thank you both
We’re in Southern California USA! Your videos are really helpful as we didn’t know a thing about our jackfruit tree, thanks!!
No worries, do you use them as green jackfruit (in curries), or do you let them mature to use as fruit?
Thanks for video on jack cultivation... Especially pruning videos...👍 from kerala,India 😊
Kerala, the home of jackfruit. 💓
The pruner machine is very cool. Please make a video about the pruner 🎉
Will do.
This video gave me a clear insight on how to manage my jackfruit tree. I have two trees and had no idea on how to prune these fruit trees. Many thanks
Glad you enjoyed it Charles we find it so much easier when it comes time to pick the fruit
Thanks for sharing. Just started to plant 3 month ago and still 70cm tall. Keep watching you..
Thank you. That's so kind.
How cool are those pruners! Thanks for the step by step guide!
They make life so much easier. There are quite a few different makes on the market now, some of which have the battery as part of the handset.
Excellent 🎉 I from SriLanka
Thank you so much.
In Bangladesh the main trunk of the Jackfruit tree is let to grow big and tall, and the side bough knur stems are removed and cut down. The tree grows naturally big and the trunk gives you golden wood which is better than teak wood. Jackfruit yields more in trunk than those secondary stems.
Yes it is a very nice wood, we keep our trees short because we live in a cyclone prone area.
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577 I see. Good luck. If possible come in our country in June/ July, Jackfruit is our National Fruit, and here grows a lot, taste is super amazing.
They are for taking wood for furniture but in this way focus is on fruit that's the difference first one is is a traditional way and second one is agriculture oriented this is the way used in India
@@ambikal7750 so they grow the trees Ike this in India?
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577 yes
Best information. Very helpful
Thank you so much for your kind words
Thank you! Very helpful
Great tips will use them on my seedling in a few years 😂
good video content, very inspiring, I like it, greetings from vidofarm Indonesia
Greetings, thank you so much for your nice comment. Growing tropical fruit trees is a great lifestyle. 👍
I absolutely loved you guys video!!! Very informative, to the point and demonstrated the steps. No guessing on what to do. Oh by the way is it possible to buy one of your jackfruit trees?
Thank you so much. At present , we still need trees for our paddock
Thank you,very informative
You are welcome!
Thanks for this video
Thanks for your lesson
Thank you
Thank you for very informative and actual pruning jackfruit. Is your trees from seedlings or grafted seedlings. Thank you
Thank you so much, all our trees are grafted.
I am jack fruit farming Good Working
Thank you, where do you live?
❤❤❤
I wish to support you, don't know how to do, just making your videos as status message in my WhatsApp 🎉.. let your hardwork news go around the world.. love from India 🎉❤🎉💝
Thank you so much krsvanan 🥰 really appreciate your comments too, we learn so much from JF growers in other countries 😊
Saya sangat senang menemukan video ini. Saat umur berapa pohon nangka dapat dilakukan pemangkasan seperti video ini? Saya ingin belajar dan mulai menanam pohon nangka sekitar 30 pohon
We leave the tree to grow to about 1.8 mtrs tall then we select the branches we like (remove weak) ones, ensure none of the branches are directly above another and then remove the main leader. Ian
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577 Terima kasih telah membagi ilmu yang bermanfaat. Kalian sangat baik hati. Semoga Tuhan selalu menjaga kalian dalam kebaikan
@@deanwerena9931 You're welcome, thankyou 😊
😮
Great videos mate would you prune your durian trees the same way as this? Would love to see a video on pruning the durian on trellis
Thanks mate, yes we have thought about trying to shape a couple of the newly planted trees like the jackfruit just for curiosity to see how they respond. The problem with the horizontal branches on the trellised trees is that there is no protection for the top branches from the sun if you just leave the one single vertical leader as is recommended, this then causes sun burn.
Noooo, you guys are leaving the wound open after pruning, what we do here in India is cover it with cow dung or copper sulphate paste 😢
Thanks krsvanan 😊 We do have wound sealer sprays over here but never seen the need to use them. We prune on a slant and avoid pruning when raining. No problems so far 🤞 🙏
Hi Madam. This is very nice information. I feel that the result /fruit yieling will be lower.Thanaraj.India.
Lower per tree but more trees per hectare. It is also much easier and quicker to pick fruit.
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577thank you Madam.
Thank you, I just topped a small one I planted in back a few yrs ago. In continuous wet tropical rainforest…it never gets above 90F or below 50. Any tips on getting fruit as I’m not sure if it will fruiting
We tend to use low nitrogen fertiliser like chicken manure (kateck), as high nitrogen stimulates vegitive growth.
Hi from phils
Hello
I am from Sri Lanka and we have lot of jack trees grown in our country. We use those fruits as vegetable as well as ripen sweet fruits. I would like to know how your jack trees survive in winter season in your country.
We don't really have much of a winter in the tropics. I think the lowest temps we can get are around 9-10 degrees Celsius (but not often) We don't have frosts. So the trees do just fine, in fact that is when they are usually flowering and starting to set fruit. 😊
👍👍
I have a small jackfruit tree here in California that I will be planting in the ground within the next week. The tree must have had shading on one side as it has more growth on the opposite side. My question is, should I plant it with the dense side facing North to encourage more balanced growth moving forward or should I plant it with the dense side facing my viewing side which is also Southwest towards the sun?
It may well be worth planting the shaded side facing the south towards the sun to hopefully encourage growth, it's certainly worth trying.
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577 thank you!
where is your farm? can you also do pruning videos on other trees you have even if you have only one of them. these are such good tutorials and alot of the pruning videos on youtube are pretty bad.
Hi Alastair, thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice comment 😊 glad you are finding the videos helpful. Our farm is in North Queensland, Australia. To be honest we don't really have many other trees outside of our main crops of Jackfruit and Canistel but we do have some random trees in our boundaries that maybe we could take a look at.
Thanks for the videos on jack cultivation. Do let me know if you would like to be part of worldwide jack forum wherein experts across the world are part of it towards realizing and empowering Jack farmers across the world and enhance the value addition in to products accessible across the world. Thanks Prem, India
Thanks Prem, the forum sounds great, can you let us know the details, we would love to be a part of it 😊
Hi, I would like the details
@@williamstropicalfarm5082 send me ur email bro...will share the link
We have lot of varietys
Thanks Alfred.
What is the planting distance of your jackfruit?
Ours are 4.5mts × 4.5mts, and we keep them pruned to 4mts high.
what's the best planting distance of Jackfruit?
We plant ours close 4.5 mtr because we keep them short due to cyclone issues, but if you don't have those wind problems then you can have them further apart and allow them to grow higher 8 mtrs apart.
@@meadowcroftfarmqld8577 thank you ❤️
is Jackfruit tree growing fast?
Ours begin fruiting about 22 months after planting
Thank you so much @@meadowcroftfarmqld8577
Just let the jackfruit tree grow. Fruits are at the lower part of the tree anyways.
There are many reasons why we choose to prune and shape our trees this way as opposed to letting them grow in their natural state:
1. Cyclone resilience- we live in a cyclone prone area and keeping the trees short and well pruned is an important cyclone resilience strategy for us.
2. In our experience, the trees produce fruit everywhere and are not limited to fruiting just on the lower branches. This is why we are constantly thinning out. A tall tree with fruit high up means we would need cherry pickers, more labour and more time.
3. Light interception is very important for flowering & fruiting
4. Good air flow reduces pest and diseases.
5. Keeping the trees short allows for easier management overall and better fruit quality.
6. Allows for higher density planting.
