One more tip specifically for peach and nectarine trees: in the autumn remove all dead leaves from beneath the tree, if allowed to rot naturally into the soil they release a mildly toxic compound for the parent tree (won't kill it but will slow down growth and decrease fruiting). In theory you can compost the leaves for fertilizing any other plants except stone-fruit trees, but if you have a small garden better get rid of them altogether (you can spread them over a field or forest, won't do any harm to the environment).
Hi Jag that’s amazing I enjoy your video very much I don’t have no space for planting everything I have to buy and it’s getting costly my daughter loves strawberries cherries blueberries blackberries apples grapes plum but it’s very expensive in Trinidad 🇹🇹 to you and your family enjoy your farms and stay safe bye.
Thank you very much jag Singh sir for giving us such a great information about the seven tips how to grow lots of peaches, nectarines fruit apricots and plums and once again happy all the puja festival of this year 2022 celebrated in our country India to you and your family from me sir 👋😀👍👍👍👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🌹🌹💐💐
Nice video. I just planted a plum tree this year. Can you do a future video shows how your prune in the winter. I was told to not fertilize in plum/ nectarine fruit tree in the first year.
I have a tip for ripening peaches or any stone fruit; set the peaches on a linen or cotton towel, set the fruit with on their tops (where the stem was), space them so the fruit do not touch each other, put another towel over the top and finally check every day and remove ripe peaches. Also, remember fruit grows on previous year stems…
I wish there was a way to tell cling stone or free stone before buying stone fruit at the store. I would always opt for free stone peaches and nectarines.
Sir, Really Wonderful elaboration. Great. I shall feel grateful if you could kindly arrange to tell me the varieties of these stone fruits for sub tropical climates and rootstocks being temperate fruits generally . Very useful video. Thanks a lot. Welcome and heartfelt regards. Hats off to you for coming out with such precious information dedicated to the service of humanity please. 👌👍❤️🙏🙏
My apricot tree was loaded but worms have infested them and the squirrels have bitten & drop them. I am so disappointed. What can I use to spray them with to prevent diseased fruits?
Hold on. I had a lonely apricot that produced fruit. You say I need 2. Is it possible mine is pollinated by the nearby peach tree? Could I have grown peachricots?
hello zone 9b ,maybe you can help me ,winter i purchased a nectarine midget fruit root ,i panted in a pot fertelize it ,its may and she hasent flower 🌼, she as some red spots all over the tree also a fuji apple midget tree hasent flower as well ,maybe you can help me
Hello, I have a nectarine tree that is 5 yrs old and had yield some fruit in the past but they dropped before ripening. Also, I never pruned it. I recently fertilized it with Jobes fertilizer. Do we need another nectarine for cross pollination? Is it too late to prune it now? My tree is about 15 ft now. Please advice.
You do not need another nectarine for pollination, they are self pollinating. Which zone are you in? Are you getting enough cold weather for the tree to go dormant?
We have a nectarine that sits next to a peach tree. This year the nectarines tasted like peaches! However both years the nectarine tree gave fruit that looked "ugly". It had scarring and sap leaking out of some., It also has these little beetles coming out the top, I believe they're sap beetles. Part of it is my fault the the fruit wasn't picked on time, but is the scarring done by then too? The scarring was present when the fruit was just growing, way before they were ripe. I've eaten some anyways, just take off the part that looks brown on the inner part, like you Id prefer a bug over a pesticide but are these fruit with the sap beetles better off tossed than eaten?
Scarring occurs when immature thrips nymphs feed on the surface of tiny fruit, just as it begins to develop. Feeding creates scars on the fruit surface and these scars enlarge as the fruit grows. You need to spray with Spinosad right when fruit begins to develop to kill off the larvae stage. Also use neem oil with pure castle soap every week. Yes, fruit with some bugs is definitely better than eating pesticides. My great grandfather used to say "I will not eat food sprayed with poison" I made a video on his teachings here ruclips.net/video/GUfgxdH7WAs/видео.html
I've tried growing apricots but unsuccessful. I had 2 trees. They bloomed, fruit developed. But while still green, about 1" big, they all fell off. Any suggestions? Thank you! Always great and informative videos.
Look for aphids, they're tiny green parasitic insects (smaller than a fruit fly) that cling to the back of young leafs, usually more towards the tips of the branches. Infested trees will abort the fruits in order to survive, later on the infested leaves will get deformed and may even dry up completely. The best bio aphid treatment I know is a home made concoction that goes like this: in boiling (tap) water add black pepper powder (10g/l), hot chilly powder (10g or 2 chopped chilly peppers per liter) and raw garlic (2 crushed cloves per liter). Boil for 5-10 minutes, than let it sit until it cools down to room temperature (also settling the solids on the bottom), than pour the fluid into a spray bottle or small atomizer (preferably through a sieve) and apply it on the infected tree. It's a contact pesticide, meaning it works only if you spray it directly on the parasites, so be thorough with it. The effect is almost instantaneous, killing everything except some of the eggs, so it's best to apply at least twice at 3 days interval. It's not toxic but it's basically pepper tea, so be careful not to spray it in your face. It's also not harmful for the plants (of any kind) and rain will wash off the residue into the ground, where it degrades naturally into a weak fertilizer.
Jag, great tips. My peach tree is about 8 years old and even though I prune it viciously (people think I'm killing it) it has grown to about 10 times the size of your trees. Any ideas on what to do?
In my opinion, best is not to pick variety yourself. but , go to a nursary and ask for opinion! let the masters do their job and you pay them for that and both will be happy
You are talking about pesticides like they are horrible. If people would just do their research and apply like the label say you will not ingest harmful chemicals.
First, u do a good video but personal hygiene is necessary with the video u need to be clean and clean clothes and neat and show completely from A to Z.
One of the most information packed videos I have seen on fruit trees. Wished I had found yours first instead of watching soooo many others first.
Glad the video was helpful!

Damn, thanks for the tip. I will do this for my 1 red haven peach!
You are so concise. I appreciate it. Great idea to give nutrients to the soil during winter! Thank you!
Giving birds a source of water generally stops them from going after fruit! Usually they are seeking water.
We have multiple bird baths and a pond, they go for the fruit lol
@@DaisyCreekFarms Gotcha. Just sharing in case!
Wow, your farm is doing so well now. Congrats
Thank you so much for all your tips🙏🏼

I love your videos this one is making me hungry 😋 mmm
i planted a peach tree this year. I am looking forward to eat next year.

Wow, I had no idea that whether the flesh of the fruit stuck to the pit was because they were different varieties. 🤣
I wish there was a way to tell cling stone or free stone before buying stone fruit at the store. I would always opt for free stone peaches and nectarines.
I wish I can visit you amazing farm
One day!!! Thank you!
Thank you jag fresh peaches 🍑

Kese ho sir, Nice to see you and that orchard has grown well
What advice would you give as a beginner sir to plants peaches Tru seeds.i always wanted to grow them
Jag, what do you do with your peaches for dessert? Im thinking shortcake with a dollop of whipped cream. Yummy!
Peach Cobbler :)
How long does it take from when the nectarine fruit starts to grow to then ready to pick?
Any tips on how keep the squirrels away? This year had lots of fruit but squirrels did not allow me to harvest even one,
You can use bird netting on trees
I live in PA and the only response I get when I ask about controlling squirrels is , “ do you have a 22?”
Wonderful 👍👍👍👍
Do you sell Scions?
My brain works in reverse so it’s easier for me to convert to cold days and keep track that way.
I have three growing from seeds here in the UK, hoping they will fruit this year
They are fruiting - happy me
What do you do with the peaches that you pruned? Can they be composted?
Our chickens eat them, yes you can add them to compost as well
I NEED HELP DECIDING! Which nectarine is the most flavorful and sweet?
Arctic Pride White Nectarine, it's like sugar
Thanks for the great content.
Btw what is done with green fruit after the thinning is done?
You can add it to compost
@@DaisyCreekFarms hi Jag, consider pickling the green stone fruit, could be an untapped resource.
Hold on. I had a lonely apricot that produced fruit. You say I need 2. Is it possible mine is pollinated by the nearby peach tree? Could I have grown peachricots?
How many acres are you on to plant 500 trees. Peaches are my favorite fruit.
CD or DVD disks can also help from birds.
Will give this a shot! thanks!
hello zone 9b ,maybe you can help me ,winter i purchased a nectarine midget fruit root ,i panted in a pot fertelize it ,its may and she hasent flower 🌼, she as some red spots all over the tree also a fuji apple midget tree hasent flower as well ,maybe you can help me

how to protect your fruit trees from a late frost after it's blooms
Cover them with greenhouse plastic or use lights that produce little bit of heat around the tree.
@@DaisyCreekFarms Thanks
Jag have you tried hanging cds to keep birds away, I tried the silver tape not very effective
Haven't tried CDs, will give them a shot
hi
Jag, great tips. My peach tree is about 8 years old and even though I prune it viciously (people think I'm killing it) it has grown to about 10 times the size of your trees. Any ideas on what to do?
prune more
Does it produce great fruit? If not, prune 3 times as much. If so, just keep doing what you have been doing.
lovelove forevers sweeties @w
You're growing fruit in the desert with imported water. What happens when you cant get free water from the Colorado any more? Back to the desert.
Not in the desert, water is native, not imported. We do not get water from Colorado. We get it from our Sierra Nevada mountains in California.
In which country do you live .
👍💙🙂
One with nature cost me all my produce, despite 1000's in organic products.
Coyotes are eating tiny unripe watermelons!
Jack Rabbits ate my watermelons. Use fencing around your garden.
Vegan coyotes!!!
My father told me when we eat organic fruits we need to turn off the light.
Not really, even then it is better than eating poison that's sprayed on non organic fruit.
What is worst than a bug in your fruit ?...half a bug after you have had a bite of it
Is it me or this video is fast. Regardless, excellent info, nonetheless
In my opinion, best is not to pick variety yourself. but , go to a nursary and ask for opinion! let the masters do their job and you pay them for that and both will be happy
