As a novice gardener, I cant tell you how invaluable your channel has been!!
Glad to hear that Plantpatootie! Me and Tuck don't want people making the same mistakes we have, we want people to spend as much time harvesting as possible
@@jamesprigioni do you have any videos on how and when to prune older fig trees?
I imagine James when he's in his sixties still coming into the videos with just as much energy and pep. Keep going, so that I may see this!
I don’t even understand why someone would dislike this! There’s no reason to dislike it!
Someone comes early and dislikes all the videos sometimes, not sure why but hey at least they are watching 🤣
@@jamesprigioni gotta get the views!
My 2 year old food garden is based completely on everything I’ve learned from you!! 💕
I also love his system, hug from Brazil ! =)
Every video should be titled “masterclass to sustainability “ 👍🏽 There’s no better way to learn than to live/work through it !
I had something similar happen to me this season. I let my young satsuma overproduce last year, which bit me this year, because now it is going through an alternate bearing year where it only put fruit on half the tree. Thinning fruit trees is a really important practice. If you don’t do it, you’ll pay for it later.
Thanks. This part of the video was really helpful.
Yes. Where I live, if you let a fruit tree overproduce one year it may be dead the next. All the fruit trees someone else planted here did that: lived a few years, had one huge harvest and then died before the next season. But it could also be that they had so much fruit trying to reproduce because they were dying from the soil being too much clay here.
Satsuma is in the citrus family they do not need thinning. They tend to self thin
@@ccollins7325 most citrus do not self-thin adequately. All fruits self-thin to some extent, even pears, apples and peaches. If you want good fruit quality, you still need to thin on top of it. Fruit trees don’t care about how their fruit tastes. They produce fruits to reproduce. We are the ones that care about fruit quality, so for best results, we need to thin some in most cases.
@@TheMillennialGardener well said. That is my experience although my people argue with me. So….I just go ahead to thin secretly. When harvest time comes, they praise me for growing delicious fruits, still not knowing I did thinning. This way I save my headaches from unnecessary arguments.
I am glad he shared his mistakes for us to learn from. I love how Tuck is fighting him and playing with him. It’s funny because I just planted a Santa Rosa tree but I actually love plums and they should do well in my southern hot /humid climate.
With the kids out of the nest, I needed something other than a business to run. I now have three peach trees, a nectarine, a persimmon, two apples, three cherry, four grape vines, six blueberry bushes, nine blackberry, and an array of raised beds for veggies. Looking forward to some grandkids picking fruit, like my grandfather did for me. Thank you James.
With the coming food shortages you’re saving lives spreading knowledge!
Took a page from your playbook and dropped 10 yards of mulch on the S. side of my house; picking fruit trees right now. Thanks buddy!
What a great video for someone who is barely starting to learn about fruit trees I inherited when I bought my house. TNX
I live in New Jersey and after watching your videos I am inspired by you to start growing fruit trees. I have 2 apple trees, grape vines and today I bought Japanese plum, combo cherry and peach. I hope one day you can visit and let me know what I can do to improve my garden. God blessings always!
I'm a a major newbie to backyard orchards and I cannot tell you how overwhelming it can seem with all of the books and videos. Your one video here was the BEST free information I've learned!! Now i'm going home after work to make sure the apple tree and peach tree I bought is disease resistant and actually what I planted. hahaha
This is why you have to look at different garden people and get an idea what they’re really talking about, and so far you have proven you’re the best good job
I have about 14 trees in my yard that I need to get in check. This post has helped me so much. Thank you from Clearwater florida.
Honestly just clicked the video for the energy of the intro 😂🔥
I searched 10 videos for these tips, and i finally got answers I was looking for in this 1 video. Thanks James!
I started watching your channel about a year ago and I feel like we’re good friends even though I’ve never met you lol you’re just a great guy all around and your attitude and knowledge has kept me going strong now I’m running out of room on my patio with tomatoes onions strawberries different pepper varieties and even a couple fruit trees from pit seed 😎 I only grow from seed based on your advice and it’s made a huge difference I’ve been having frequent harvest about every 1-2weeks which provides me and my wife with the best fresh vegetables. Much Love from California 🤘
I've been watching a few gardening channels lately and gardeners are such genuinely happy people! I'm loving my garden and it is really rewarding. Great channel! Love your enthusiasm and knowledge!🤩🌻🥀
Do you watch Becky on Acre Homestead???? She and this channel are my favorites!
@@CatherineShoresHMN I'll check it out! Thanks! 🥰🥀
A major plus for growers is that they experience more "grounding," which is so beneficial to the body, reducing build-up inflammation.
Years ago, I read a story about the effects "city community gardening" had on kids. It relieved anxiety, stress, and aggressiveness. They became happier.
I appreciate you James and this Channel. I know you have heard this alot over the years, just started my first food forest and just got the wood chips down. You the man James stay doing what you are doing. Love me some Tuck also!!
So quality over quantity brings in the juiciest harvest. Great advice.
I'm on the west coast and I'll just say Mr Dave Wilson has it going on with his fruit trees...my 2 blueberries from his nursery produce wonderfully, and I have a dozen plants from different ones.
What a great human being you are. Helping others.
May you and Tuck prosper in your bountiful farm, forever.
In Japan, some mango growers would leave just one fruit on one tree so it can produce the most premium quality at a $200 price tag.
Please visit Bangladesh for delicious mangoes at a very cheap rate 😇
Well that's just silly
Wow $200.00 for one Mango, I bet it's delicious.
Mangos grow in Japan? What area? If similar to Gulf Coast in climate I would like to try that.
Fairly typical for the high end fruit in Japan. Check out their watermelons!
I just love your little dog following you around.
Thank you boss-pup Tuck for encouraging your person-pet James to create such great content and to pass on wisdom to us novices. ❣️🌌🌿
Been watching you for years James... we purchased one hectare here in New Zealand and have started to build our new home. Over last two years planted hundreds of fruit and nuts tree, most raised in our backyard. Just want to say your bloody inspiration and thanks.
As a novice gardener this is my favourite channel, I love watching Tuck especially, I love him. I made nearly all those mistakes James with my fruit trees and its taken 3 to 4 years to get any fruit, ordered a variety ie, plum, pear, apple, desert and cooking, and cherry but all turned out to be apple!! and one not fruited yet?? The information you shared is really useful and easy to understand thank you. I live in the UK in the Midlands which is around zone 8. Particularly useful info regarding thinning fruit and pruning. Thanks again. 😊
This kind of video is so helpful for gardeners of all skill levels. Sharing experience both good and bad is invaluable. Very well done

I started watching when I lived a town across from a mall now we have 5ac and I did exactly you said I bought cheap, trees at Home Depot and they are trash. A year younger tree from the local nursery and they are taller and stronger then my older ones, they have shoots coming up off the grafted root ball and keep coming back. We are lucky to have you a great source of information! Thanks
Thanks James, I need to thin my peach tree that's just finished blooming and the fruit is forming. Cheers for the information! Give Tuck an ear rub for me! 👍👍👍
Thank you. I have apple, cherry, plum, and haskap outside in the ground. I also have fig, avocado, pomegranate, in containers. I'm in zone 5, upstate ny. so i take my containers inside in the fall. Thanks for helping us with our plants.
Do you actually get fruit off the avocado and pomegranate trees in your zone?
@@ericsmith8129 The pomegranate is a dwarf so i take it inside. Everything is on the enclosed porch now, transitioning from outside to the living room. That said, the pomegranate is two years old and tiny little poms are on it. I think i should've pruned it so the fruits would be bigger. Right now, they look like tiny little one-inch plums. The avocado just kinda popped up in two of my sweet potato containers. I threw the seeds in and voila. Will see what happens.
These videos help so much👋🏽in zone5 as well fellow gardener growing the same trees & trying banana blood orange kumquats this year.24 in containers only my 5yr old pear tree in the ground,can’t wait til spring got 10 trees indoors til may 🥺🤗happy harvesting
Haskap!? I need that where did you get the seeds for it!?
@@yourlocalscribe948 i get plants. Online stores or Amazon. Make sure you get plants that are good matches for each other if you want them to actually bear fruits.
Hey Team Tuck! I used to think your harvest videos were the greatest but now I enjoy your taste tests the best. If it's good enough for Team Tuck, it's good enough for me. Cheers!
Thanks James! You answered some questions that I've had for years. I've been reluctant to plant fruit trees because I've seen many "bad" trees in people's yards and I didn't know the cause was avoidable mistakes. I might reconsider growing fruit trees in my garden in the future. You and Tuck always inspire me.
Oh my goodness, I'm addicted to your channel. You have an amazing way of explaining everything. So thankful I found your channel!
Hello James. You are right. If I had not made those mistakes, I would have had good fruits and beautiful trees for a long time. See you
I was watching your other video tapping snot all the food forest food and those apples, you were so excited. I kept waiting for you to bite into one of those apples!!! I have fruit trees that are crazy. Thank you for the videos!! I always enjoy watching!
You have so much enthusiasm and energy! I love you experience and knowledge.
Thanks for sharing your experiences over the years... Huge help for first timers !
Thanks Jame. You are so great telling us what needs to be done correctly towards fruit trees care.
Our 2 apple trees suck every year. We noticed they've got lava and bugs with them this year.
You are really our apple tree doctor. Thanks again.
Good tips. My biggest frustration is the pests. I don't like using toxic, cancer causing chemicals on my food. So all of my fruit will have issues. I just cut the bad section out and use the rest. It is apparent to me that we have more pests every year, and more diseases. I'm from the old country. We never sprayed our fruit and it was all perfect. But, we didn't grow any of the commercial varieties. Our fruit came from seeds and was very unique and very tough. When man tries to improve on nature, we have problems...every time.
Much love tuck and James🌱🌾♥️🙏
Much love Jessica, me and Tuck appreciate the positivity you share
I sure did get a lot of value from this video! Thank you!!! I purchased my first 5 bare root tree this year!
I bought all of my trees from Bob Well's nursery online, I highly recommend it
Your enthusiasm is fully putting me in a Gardening State!
When I Purchased my first cherry tree I had no idea why I was doing..
I bought a sour cherry on a a normal root stock.. 😂 I rent and have a tiny garden! So I kept it in a pot for 3 years
This year I bought a Victoria Plum on a pixy rootstock. They do really well where I live and I love a sweet sour plum! So second time I did my research.
Love you, love tuck, love gardening. Nothing but love!
JP, I've been following you for quite a while now and I'll say that you're very good at what you love,,,,,,, and getting better as time goes on,,,,,,thnx,this was excellent.
Been there, done that, and have the t-shirt. I started my orchard in 2015 and made all the beginner mistakes. But I have educated myself since then and have become a master gardener through our LSU extension office and now I advise people on fruit trees. Hopefully I can help some avoid the pitfalls that comes with being an uninformed beginner. Good information you have provided.
Thank you you finally show me how to plant apples trees, and adult kind of fruit trees 🎉🎉🎉🎉😀
Really nice to see how passionate you are about your trees! Great informative tips!
Hello from Thailand thank you for sharing.You are hard working person and happy 😊😊😁😁😁
Thanks for all your videos. I’m in NY and love that you’re in my zone too so it’s easy to follow what you teach and apply it to my area.
Thank you for slowing down the video! It made it very helpful to retain and comprehend what you were saying
Yes this was a great video and very informative. I love learning from you! Tuck ❤️❤️
Great tutorial James! Love your enthusiasm and techniques.
Sweet James. I can’t wait for spring! I’ve ordered 8 fruit trees after watching your last few videos. Thx for sharing all your knowledge so freely & with such joy!
A good places to get trees that James is talking about
I've been waiting for this realy have failed with all my fruit trees
They are not easy to grow my friend, but I have found these 5 things to make a HUGE difference for me
Thank you! For this! I was struggling with brown rot, and want to keep my garden organic. You educated me immensely with this video. Graci!
James, such excellant advice. Thank you so much. Some peoples failures are others rewards
Hey James, I like you a few years ago learned the hard way about company's not sending what you'd ordered. That's when I started only ordering from company's I'd researched and found reliable. Great tips, I'm saving this video for future reference. Thank you for all you do and I can't get enough of little Tuck! ❤
Appreciate you sharing your successes and hiccups along your journey! I cannot wait to put these lessons into action and get my Food Forrest going!! We’ve done a little in our back yard but we bought some raw land about a year ago that we plan to create our Food Forrest in soon! We have planted some things in our current back yard that we can propagate and move.
I'm so glad I came across your video because I learned so much. I don't have fruit trees yet but when I do I will be better prepared.
Love the energy you put in every video! ❤
All your videos are the best. I learn more from you than all other channels I have watched. Thank you!!
Thanks. Another big one is getting the correct pollinating other Apple to make sure they both fruit. A Bramley won't pollinate any other apple tree, whilst happily allowing others to pollinate it so you need two other apple types for fruit production. 🐝🐝🐝 are doing the pollinating not wind.
thanks for this! You saved me a ton of time waiting for seeds to grow into unknown (and full sized) with your fruit tree vids.
Hi James this has just come at the right time as I was wondering how to thin out my new fruit trees, love your enthusiasm, keep up the great videos and stay safe, David from London 👍👍
Thank you so much for taking the time to put all of this together for us to Learn. Such Appreciation for your labors!
Cheers.
I wrote everything down. We will be planting fruit trees in the spring. Thank you!!
I learned so much from this video!!!! Thank you! I want to plant some fig trees.
Glad to hear that my friend! Figs are fun to grow, we have to wrap them for the winter where I am at
Best video so far. Really appreciate the detailed video with specific hints
Thanks James always such great information in a awesome teaching form. And Tuck is the icing on the cake. Thanks for sharing him with us
Dude! i Love this and love you! Keep growin on to keep us newbies growing on!
Great information. I really appreciate your enthusiasm and practical knowledge!
I'm new to growing fruit trees so I truly appreciate you sharing the information
Superb information presented in a way I can actually take in the info! I’ve just inherited a small orchard with badly maintained fruit trees and no idea where to start so this is really helpful 😊
Thank you for making your information easy to understand. Love your channel.
Thanks again James &Tuck great information on the fruit trees today
My apple trees are about 30 years old and have been learning pruning over the past 5 years or so. The most frustrating thing is that my 'dwarfs' are so tall! Pays to prune early.
I liked it when you put the apple in your shirt. Tuck was looking attractive.
Wow! That is fantastic information, a lot of which I had not heard before despite all my research. Thank you so much.
Your timing is impeccable! Peace from Los Angeles!
I genuinely love your channel 😅❤ you're so energetic but great at teaching people.. 👏
Thanks James, appreciate the advice from your learnings. thanks again.
Killing me with those gorgeous apples! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you. This is the best overview of tips for successfully growing fruit trees that I've seen. (And I watch a lot of videos and research all the time.)
Huge amount of great info. I always learn a lot from you. Thanks.
I really enjoyed this video. I've made each one of these mistakes. I will now be spraying Surround Kaolin Clay and Sulfur and I'm very hopeful for next year. Thank you.
Good looking out! I definitely needed this information, a thousand thank yous!
Thank you so much for all the info! I really needed this for my apple, plums, sour cherry trees, etc.. Very grateful for all the valuable info. Keep up the good videos, work, and ♥️Tucker!
Thank you for the information. I've been trying to figure out how to save my trees. The rot info was very helpful!
Always so good at explaining and teaching. Thanks
Love the amazingly generous amount of information that you give out. Thanks a million :)
Thank you for the great advice. Love your channel (and Tuck)!
Perfect and glad you were so thorough - the best!!!
Thanks for all the great advice, especially tips for pruning. Ive messed up a couple trees pruning incorrectly. The biggest pest issue I have is leaf miners, they take such a toll on my citrus trees so Im constantly trouble shooting with different oil and sprays. I even bought fine protective nets but then the pollinators cant get in. TFS another great vid. Hi Tuck!
I really enjoy your videos, they have showed where I made my mistakes concerning fruit trees
Working on an acre food forest on the edge of an existing forest. It's pretty epic. Thanks for all the good tips!
