Corrected Version - Walk around tour, repotting a root bound tree & Jackfruit scaffold training

CORRECTION - Sorry, had to re-upload this post in order to make correction with my Ice Cream Bean tree - How I transplanted my root bound Barbados Acerola Cherry tree. See what happens when you fail to cut off circling roots before transplanting. Also, scaffold branch training my Jackfruit tree for best fruit production and a walk around tour of the backyard orchard.

Nice tour/update. Re: the removal of panicles on young mango trees, Chris at Truly Tropical recommends leaving a little of the blooms on the panicle to prevent the tree from pushing them out again. Snip off 75 - 80 percent at first then remove the rest once blooming season is over or pluck off the fruit if they form. It's been working for me, and less energy is wasted by the tree developing full-sized panicles with blooms.

That’s great info, thank you! I’ve seen some of her videos, lots of really good info. I must have missed the one with the info you referenced. I’ll try doing that rather than cutting off the entire panicle all at once. Thanks again.

Our Santa Barbara peach just started to wake up (July 1, zone 10b, Vista) - a small leaves started to appear. It is the first year it woke up so late.

Hope you had a great 4th of July celebration. Yes, that is late. Mine seems to be off as well. It started to push out new leaves in late April. It had a very small amount of blooms back then. Now, there are a few peaches about the size of a small radish and several flower buds that have not bloomed. It doesn’t look like it will be a good season for mine.
