It's crazy the amount of work required just to keep these alive.
Hello dear Charles. Hope you're doing great. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Happy growing
It's 5 years later, did the tree thrive after the filling of mole holes? I noticed you were filling with compost. My understanding is compost should always go on top of soil. Please show an update of what the tree is doing now. I was sort of curious as well if it did get much bigger, the tree trunk must be super close to the AC by now. Thanks for sharing.
The only way for me to get rid of underground critters was a couple of 15 minute emergency road flares. Smoke went through the tunnels and we haven't seen anymore destruction.
also charles, those are fruit bearing cuttings, their valuable., grafting, cloning, and cuttings, from a fruit bearing tree. for re-sale or root to give away as gifts.
one blogger dug up his tree and put a inclosed cage around the bottom of tree that goes under the ground and replanted with the cage or wiring. love the video, garden is so beautiful. i had a pinkerton/zutano, and a fuente alvacado trees. the sun just damage them so badly, where the stems became dark. i have found that they must have shade, the younger they are. veggies, are the same. i have bought sugar baby water melons, cucumbers, spagetty squash, the sun burt me til gone. i have decided on a green house are something totally shaded. thank you charles. much love and god,s peace be with you.
Hello Rafiqa11,
ALWAYS great to hear from you! :-)
I have a friends garden I will be preparing a tour to share with all of you in September, where nearly every tree is planted in cages to protect from the uncontrollable number of ground rodents on his property.... however, he has one of the nicest fruit forests I have ever seen... So well organized and a Moracan theme too! With regards to your avocados, if you spray the young stem and leaves with IV Organics 3-in-1 Plant Guard as a foliar spray, you can help keep your young avocados cooler in those full sun areas they will come to appreciate once you get them through the 2-3rd summer.... and their canopy is large enough to shade the lower tree trunk and branches. Keep me posted on your growing successes!!! Much love and God's peace be with you as well! Charles :-)
i wanted to save it for bigger trees that i need to cool their trunks. i am just so disappointed in the alvacados, i must have alvacados, i would love to grow watermelons, cantelope, ,honeydew melons, cucumbers, spagetti squash. but my solution is a greenhouse. the sun just burns them up. i have taken dirt back to lowes/homedepot, with refund for 4 or 3 for $12.00 veggie pkg. so disappointed.
i look forward to your next video, i just love them, they are so informative. thank you charles
Charles, There's four big trunk roots holding the tree. Two of them are dead roots. There's a huge hole inside after examining the roots around the trunk. What treatment can you suggest for the roots or trunk roots I can put before putting good soil like cactus soil?
I was done watching several videos of "Organic's best urban Gardner" saw yours and here I am. Great information! Thank you for being so In-depth and very informative!!!
I have found the hard way that Avocados don't like to have their roots growing in compost.
They only like leaves (or chips) decaying on top of the soil.
I would fill in any holes with dirt, and then put any compost on top.
I live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and my concern was for my flowering large Plum Tree which appears to be attacked by black ants
My flowering plum is about 15 years old. Trunk of the tree has a green substance on it and it appears to be dying the same substance is on my cherry tree and it looks like it's just gone
The Diggers 15 gallon Root Guard is constructed so that it does not girdle the tree roots. It disintegrates after a few years so it gives the tree a chance to get well established and less susceptable to rodent damage.
Avocados are very susceptible to wind. I noticed you have your tree close to your a/c condenser. I would try a different place if it does not improve.
Hello Charles . All my avocado tree leaves are brown, not sure if I over water them or less.
I don't wet my big avocado because it takes water from rain and underground water. hope that you can save your avocado. Great video.
Thank you for your instruction. But I have 2 problems with young Avocado tree. The leaves become brown from the edge. Another problem is the leaves get holes and it looks some bugs ate the leaf from the edges. But I never found any bug from the tree. Please tell me how I can solve these problems. I would appreciate very much.
I think the plastic metallic thing next to your stressed hash avocado is causing the stress!!! I heared also that avocados likes ashy soil to fruit! Make sure you let us know once they fruit.. 🐱
Very informative with lots of great tips. Helpful for anyone with fruit trees growing on their property. Many thanks!
Please update us on the progress
I have a little gem Magnolia about 2 feet from my house I planted it 12 years ago should I be concerned that Little gem type of magnolia will do any damage to my foundation? Thank you
I appreciate your video, to me, is a class I learn every time something new, thanks
You have a root eating grub in the ground - grubs like Avocado's . The fat white big kind. I feed those to my chickens. You have to dig them out - not too easy to do but you have to get those buggers out. They don't like horse manure water that I use for fertilizer, so I have very few grubs but I had a suddenly dying Avocado also and I used horse manure water to revive it.
And Avacado's love water - water often. It is a fast growing tree and needs extra water and nutrients.
Every time I'm told to be sparing on the watering, I lose the tree. AS long as you have good drainage, water a lot ! And yes in winter too !
===============================
Great suggestions CSAcitizen Feather! Charles :-)
Yes, excellent advice! I grew up with lots of avocado trees, and those ground sqirrils get'm too. Too bad-- I have high hopes for that Hass. Good luck Charles🌻🌱🌻🌻🐝
How many months before you harvest a banana fruit?
uuuu
The expert needs to answer that one.
Hello Cynthia and CSAcitizen Feather,
A banana plant should go from flower to ripe fruit within 3-4 months during the warm growing season; however, if your banana plant blooms later, as my ice cream banana did in September, you may end up waiting though winter to enjoy "vine ripe" bananas; what ended up taking 9 months! Checkout this video: ruclips.net/video/hivXPGOErPU/видео.html Charles :-)
Wood chips against your tree isn’t harmful. Watch Paul Gautsche L2survive. In nature nobody moves the chips away from trees. I’ve put 4” next to my fruit trees and it helps retain moisture thereby reducing watering. Thanks again for another great video.
hi charles...i had to ask for a exchange for my nam doc mai mango tree. i kept it in the shade, feed/watered it. then notice the leaves started looking dry, and falling, so i decided to repot it. noticed that the roots were dark brown, and stringy looking. i thing the roots had dyed when i recieved it. but yet the leafs looked nice and green. i know there are folliage strays that can keep the tree looking healthy, but i just wish the nurseries would focus on the root system which is even more important. it really saddens me when i have to send a tree back. especially when i really want the fruits from the tree. anyway, i,ve decided to check the root system when i first receive mailed plants. to save on giving them nutrience that are wasted on a dead root system.
Good evening Rafiqa11,
Great point, to check the roots and inspect the health of your plant prior to planting or repotting. By the time the plant made it to your local nursery, they have been handled by many people, in and out of trucks, stressful handling and mismanagement. Some potted ficus trees respond by dropping some / or all of its leaves by simply moving the plant from one part of the home to another... the slight change in light and temperature is a stress. All plants respond to "stress" differently. These stresses include pruning, fertilizing, watering patterns, light, etc, etc.... The goal with every planting is to learn and improve and get better with each successive planting season. Thank you for sharing your story! Charles :-)
thank you charles, for all your help.
I live in your area I was wondering if you had any insight regarding using drip irrigation. How many 1gph emitters would you place on a 5 foot shrub and how long would you run it per week?
My daughter is having mole problems. They killed about seven of her new trees I bought her. I've found cages that You put around your roots of the trees. I'm going to try that this year.
I use Epsom salt that shit is the bomb for plants
What do u have for stem rot I r cut the branches an rain fepo an rot the whole tree
Dear Mr. Charles since you lives in in en warm weather area please advise me which types or varieties of figs are best to grow in warm places like in the tropics. I see you are working with an avocado tree wich we grow them very good here where I live, and I also see you working figs trees, you can advise me which types of them I can grow here where I live. Thanks!!!!
My grapefruit tree was so healthy and beautiful and green and then when we moved it from one house to another it started to go down hill. First starting with losing it's green leaves (the leaves never yellowed) then it started dying from the ends of the branches down. I tried pruning the dead branches off, I tried watering it more frequently, I fertilized it.... But last time I watered, it got mold all across the top of the soil! I scooped it off and didn't see it again until today when the soil was dry and I went to water it again and I can see the fuzzy white stuff coming back! It's losing more and more leaves and I don't know what to do! It looks so awful now! I planted this tree as a seed probably... six or seven years ago? and it's now probably about four feet tall. I hate to see it looking like this! It's still in a pot indoors and I see no signs of bugs or anything... I know this video is two years old but... Can anybody help me??
Sorry to hear that. Were you able to restore the health of your tree??
@@angelika77st Sadly, no... 😓 It withered away a little at a time until it was just the trunk and it never came back.
I have two trees next to each other but one has brown died leaves and has not come back to green. The other tree has brown leaves but green leaves come back
I was surprised at the watering. I watched a video that said to water your avocado tree every day and sometimes twice a day.
My kumquat are not sweet, do you know why. The tree flowers a lot but the fruit takes forever to ripen.
However long ago this video was posted is beside the point, but I the avocado king am now seeing it. The avocado tree is way to close to the A/C unit and it will give off more heat than needed. The wall reflects the suns rays which are super bright, makes the area super hot, reflects onto the plants nearby and emits heat at night. I grow them in pots and in the ground ( in a shady area they will grow like gangBusters) . S Also the sunflower is drinking the water the tree should be drinking. Other than that your garden looks great. Keep up the great work.
May l know where to buy that paint that proteck the tree or plant
I water mines like you say but I seen my flowers on my trees died where I live it’s all sand so I noticed when the temp is 90 or more I have to water 3 to 4 times a day and when it’s like 70 or 80 I have todo it 2 times a day
Hi Charles, I have a question regarding my fig trees.
I have transplanted 3 gig trees 1.5 yo to a new location. Watered them thoroughly but two out of three start dropping leafs and other leafs are yellowing.
I hope I didn’t kill these trees.. any advice to save them?
Could it be from overwatering, I have also added fish fertilizer
Thanks
David
D. O. I noticed on fig trees that when they are transplanted as “an adult tree” from the ground, they gradually die even if you took a great care of it. But if you transplant a fig tree of any size that was in a before in pot, will not die.
Why they are dropping leafs?
Posible answers:
*Transplanted as “Adult tree” they usually die...
*It may be normal if you transplanted a fig tree a little before or on fall season.
*The best time to transplant a tree is in the evening or after 6pm.
*Too much water causing rotten roots ...
*You didn’t prune most of the leaves that helps the tree to soon recovery.
*The places may have to much shade or to much sun than the place it was before ...
*Or the fig tree just didn’t like the place where you put it. (Believe me, the nature have feelings and trees are part of the nature)
*You didn’t talk to the tree about the moving ... I’m not crazy, but you should ask for permission telling the tree that you are planning to move it to a better place. (Native Americans used to do it when they took something from Nature)

Wow you really a good expert thanks alot for your message you really shows so good informative
I had a cat that had gotten hold of a poisoned mouse and it passed away 3 days later so poison will affect others not just what you want them to.
Hello can you please make a video on how to get to rid off ants on a fruit tree. All my fruit trees have ant infestations eating all the fruits and damaging branches. Please help me and make a video on how to stop ants from infesting fruit trees
What if my tree is already sunburned? Can I put whitewash over it, or how do I cure those burnt branches?
Hello Mr Charles!! Some one told me to put used laundry dryers sheets in to gophers hole they don't like the smell and will go away, it works with mice too. I'd also bought 1gallon organic gophers repellent from Costco, I'd spread around my backyard now I don't see any more gopher.
That is great news, and thank you for sharing Van Brant! Do you happen to remember the brand name of the product you purchased from Costco? Charles :-)
IV Organic hello Charles thanks for all the videos you do.very informative..i live in colorado,and i have an issue with a rambutan tree that I got as a gift..after unboxing it and reporting it same day.all the leave on the tree dried up but are still on the tree. a friend said that maybe I should prun the tree and remove the stuff that's really dry.side note the color on the leaves is dark green still. Is my tree dead. I know a lot to read here. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank u
Peppermint will repell them but don't plant it because it is very intrusive. Put a nice size pot of peppermint in the area, plus being potted you can move it around to repell. I also have a pot of it in my house to get rid of spiders and one on my porch along with a huge pot of citronella which repels mosquitoes. Hope this helps.
I know what my problem is. I have burrowing insects that are taking out trees every year. I did once inject malathion into the root/trunk but that was YEARS ago before I realized exactly how toxic that stuff is. I am wondering, what can I use as an injection that isn't poisonous to us, or the pollinators that come in the Spring but will either kill or ward off those grubs that get into the root system and under the bark?
I planted a red bud tree a year ago in the fall (I’m in zone 4-5). The trunk shot up 15’ and it grew giant leaves. I cut the 15’ shoot back to the size of the rest of the tree. It then shot up many suckers from the base. I left these alone. This spring it appeared dead but I’ve not touched it. Now I’ve got maybe 8 new suckers. I’d like to save this tree and I like the idea of several trunks. Should I remove the dead trunks? Should I remove some of the suckers (so I don’t have that many trunks)? HELP!
I would leave the hose at the base just on a trickle flow and not flood it now and then. This is less stressful to plants.
Paurep wipt do affect avocado trees what do u used for stem rot I cut a whole tree rain fepo an it's dying
You need to stop feeding it early spring. Feed it after you've started picking fruit. If you've given the soil enough food prior to flowering, all this tree needs is water and the food the mulch provides. If you keep feeding it, it will keep growing, not reproducing.
Avocados need heaps of mulch and water. We have the same issues here in Western Australia, dry as a bone and hot as balls for 4 months. 40 degrees plus, for days on end. This is a rainforest tree, not a costal desert one. They need 2-3 times as much water as bananas do, but less food.
I would imagine that plenty of mulch and lots of deep watering would also make the area within the drip zone inhospitable to those rodents. You're not going to hang around if you're getting flooded out everyday.
Thanks Charles, you are the best I just watched your video, but I think it is too late for my avocado tree because the leaves is yellow it’s going to dye and I didn’t prune it or cut off some branches, I grow it about 8yrs, today is May 19, 2022, the first time it has a few fruit but it falling off, is it too late to cut off some branches now Charles?
Interesting video will u say the remedy for saving a jackfruit tree from dying because of rotten of roots.while l was digging I found that the roots are rotten in one side and so many fungus were created in roots .plz say the remedy
Love yr videos no matter how long they are!More and more that is More and More learning!!!Thanks for the videos!
Hello Charles I live in Illinois and I watch most of your videos and don't think you have one on termites, I have a purple leaf sand cherry that I noticed it was oozing zap and future inspection I realized the tree had a couple of tunnel like going vertically close to soil level and saw a larvae white color. I had try to get rid of them with natural products like aloe vera and salt, it seems that might have killed them or just went deep on my tree ? . The question is obviously since is almost winter lost all its leaves, if by spring time still have termites or I don't know what other pest looks like a termite? will be still what should I do, and if the tree can come back from an infestation or will I have to destroy it, and if survive would and when can apply the 3 and 1 organic system and if I buy it how long can storage once is been diluted. Thanks in advance Charles and also for all the Wonderful information you provide. Huge fun of yours
Mine are in pots does this go for potted trees as well? and what size should a 3 foot tree be in don't want to have her in a pot that is too big. is 1 gallon per foot alright
THANK YOU FOR EXPLANING THINGS!
Ground vermin or my biggest battle. I live in very sandy soil, surrounded by sandy fields full of gophers, and they run hundreds of feet, it seams, in a day. I've tried traps, but it's like killing ants with a stick, I can do it all day every day, and never get any where. I've tried the application of the commercial repellents but it's just too much and doesn't seam to work. I hate using poisons because I have chickens and a dog and other livestock. Any other tips? They love all my fruit trees and citrus trees and avacado and olive trees.
Which avocado varieties are hardy between zones 7ab through 5b?
Can u do a video on all of different types of avacado trees?? I have no clue what type of avacado tree I have, it was store bought!! 🙃 😅 All of the avacados were placed in the same bin, meaning tat different types of avacados got mixed together!!
Hi. Hope you can help me out. The fruits on my young calamondin is wilted. What am I doing wrong. Help!!! Thx
I need advice on red tipped photinas. They won't grow for me. They are everywhere in sahuarita, Tucson and Vail and growing well, but mine die. I need them for privacy. What am I doing wrong?
WOW!!!!! You are awesome!!!!! Many yrs ago I "learned" from someone on YT how to air layer........ well it was totally different than what you teach, needless to say what I "learned" was for nothing!!!!! I have a Meyer Lemon tree that is in real need of some TLC. What you showed on this avocado tree I can also use on my Meyer Lemon tree. Many, many thanks!. I also Subscribed. Love your videos. Best regards from Miami.
Nice video. Do you wait for the top couple inches of soil to dry out first or do you keep it consistently moist?
He said let it dry out
I was wondering if anyone knows what to do with a mango plant, the top of the stem has gone black and the leaves are a very light green, with brown patches and the leaves are dry.
From what I have read it has Black Stem.
I have sprayed it with a water/ hydrogen peroxide solution and put it in the roots in the same solution as it had no feeder roots, which after 7 days have started to produce a lot of feeder roots.
Clearly there is still life in it, and would rather save it than just grow another one.
I am also from LA but now I live in Michigan zone 5...many trees have to be brought in my home including Haas...how about fall and winter watering?
I have a question, I purchased an avocado tree this year it's about four to five feet tall and an inch a round at the graft...how would I know how old this tree is?
Hi, my little persimmon tree, the leaves are looking very bad, brown sick, what should I do ?
How is your tree doing- I don't know if there is a tree or plant prayer🙏, but I will say it to hope it gets better and Lives.
How is your fig tree doing? Do you have Figs yet? A video on that would be great.
Clay ground and overwatering probem
I finally got a Moringa tree to grow and do well and then Hurricane Irma hit and killed it. Will it come back ?
I'm finding Moringa trees to be the hardest of all trees to grow. I've tried 5 times now. This one was the only one to grow for me and then that darn hurricane came ! And they are so expensive to buy.
My Fig trees made it through good.
But my poor Moringa just could not take the wind. I had it braced well. IT did not break, it just withered in hours and lost all it's tiny branches. It's just a bare 5 foot stalk now..
Will it come back ?
===
Hello CSAcitizen Feather,
So sorry that the Irma impacted your home! I hope you and your family & friends are all well! I lived about 8 years in Boynton Beach, then Boca Raton. Such an awesome growing climate... but always a risk with those hurricanes! My friend in the Hollywood Hills purchased a few moninga trees from the nursery and has dozens of trees that he started from seed earlier this year that are growing very well, and very fast! I am optimistic that if the morninga was doing well before, that the energy stored in the roots will push a new flush of growth in the upcoming 2-4 weeks. Please keep me posted. Charles :-)
Can i use IV Organics on ornamental Banana plants? I installed 3 that are around 5 feet tall. I think they were overwatered (i live in SOCAL also) the trunks turned a yellowish color. I have decreased the water, and I THINK that they are turning slowly back to green. But, I planted these in a very sunny area, and I was wondering if I could use this product safely on the stems/leaves? Thanks! Great videos btw!
Hi Charles, I recently moved to the Rancho Cucamonga area. I have a two lemons, 1 lime and 1 orange tree I purchased from Costco. The fruits are also dropping and the lime tree has lost all of its leaves. Not sure what I am doing wrong but on another note; I recently purchased an avocado tree from another big box store and was in the process of planting it. I walked over to get the water hose and the winds came through and blew it over. Then entire top main branch of the tree broke off. The top main branch had at least 6-8 branches growing off of it. What would you recommend as far as trying to save or rehabilitate it and should I try replanting the top branch??? Please help asap!
I accidently ordered 650 bags of promix soil what do I do.If you were wondering I was trying to order 65 bags.
How is the watering situation when you're growing avocado trees in pots?
Also, what temperatures are avocado trees ok down to? (in C)
I love watching your videos. I ordered my first fruit trees this past week. I ordered a dwarf lemon and lime and two apple trees. I have spent all my free time educating myself on fruit trees. I would like to learn how to graft an apple tree. My son grew a beautiful apple tree from seed but want to graft it so I or we can get the type of apple tree I love. I also can not decide what size pot to put my trees in when they arrive. I watched another video from a gentleman who plants two or more fruit trees in the same container. ? What are your thoughts on that? Thank you for any advice plus I do want to order your iv organic products.
Excellent video, I have 12 avocado grafted trees and a few more from seeds and I will transplant to the ground this month. What you recommend to do?
Don't waste time, space, or water on seedlings. Buy a grafted Avocado.
did i hear you say, no watering during winter?...ureka moment! i would water my plants, twice per week, and maybe more, if the top soil looked dry. you said, watering twice per month, spring time. i was still watering as i just stated. and you mentioned during the hot 90decree weather, you would water twice per week.
i have now realized that i have been over watering my plants, which is why some would get a dart leaf color at tips, and roots would get tinner(dye) from fungus. wow. since i,ve now water less, even my quava plants, which i just could not understand, that people say quava,s are easy to grow, but not for me. one blogger said quava, s need daily watering.
since i have been not watering for over a week, my plants look better. i will spray foliage stray once per week. on the quava, avocados. oh, i just can,t believe my previous watering mistakes. thank you so much charles . i have now got a better understanding of i was going wrong. killing with water. much love and god,s peace be with you
Hi . Thank you From Jordan the middle eastern country for your very informative & evidence informed videos . I have a quick question on avocado tree bud and v grafting . I have several seedlings that I propagated from seeds and want to graft them but not sure which methods to use , note we are in late spring here and weather is abundantly warm . Thanks in advance .
I have a lemon tree that lost all the leaves and it’s turning brown please help.
Loved this video!
Hi Charles! I have a two year old tree as well but it's nowhere near as big as your tree. It's only about three feet tall if that. Don't know what I'm doing wrong but we do have heavy clay soil, could that be preventing its growth?
Hello Yaz Q,
First, you need to consider the variety you planted? Dwarfs are far more slow growing than the standard varieties. Do you know what variety avocado you planted? Second, clay soil is not a bad thing! In Florida (where I spend nearly 8 years living & gardening), growers purchase clay to amend their sandy soils to improve the ability of the soil to absorb moisture and retain nutrients. Clay soil is improved best by adding a 2-4 inch layer of compost and mulch! By offering organic materials to the earth worms, nematodes, bacteria, and fungi that naturally exist in your soil, you can improve several feet deep of you soil as the living things in your soil consume and tunnel their way through the ground creating waste that enriches the soil and benefits the trees. I will be talking about the value of mulching in the upcoming week or two to transform the worst soils into the best!!! I hope this helps you get a bigger avocado tree sooner!!! Charles :-)
IV Organic thank you!
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Charles from Ireland
Hello Carrie Smith! Great to hear from you all the way from Ireland! It is going to be WAY TOO HOT here in Southern California this weekend!!! Wish I was in Ireland this week!!! Charles :-)
hi, what is causing my Hass Avocado branch to turn black? in one area???
Can I used wapp concrete primer to paint the barks
Had to call an exterminator company to get rid of my golphers. It worked 💪
my very new Holiday avocado has burned very badly in the 114 degree heat we,ve had this week in So Cal. I have shaded it and sprayed with IV Organic. What do I do now to keep it from completely dying?
When heat is that high, plan on frequent watering before heat starts. Also if you can shade your tree that will help as well. I know this answer is coming way late but in case you still might read answer.
Hello Charles, I have now seen several of your videos and appreciate your sharing your knowledge. Thank you.
I have a Meyer lemon planted over a year ago which was very damage by a 12 hour freeze here in Florida this past winter. I am in zone 8b and 9a, literally the zones run and join through my lot. My soil is sandy, although I did add compost at the time of planting and have fertilized with a 4-6-8 Citrus fertilizer every 6 weeks to 2 months except in winter. The leaves have almost all dropped. Do you have any idea if my tree can be saved? I am thinking of moving it to a location closer to my house where I can watch it more closely, new fertilizer and more diligent watering. I have also ordered the IV Organic 3-in-1 Plant Guard and will use it on a new tree if this one cannot be saved. Any advice? At this point I think I have nothing to lose.
Very informative and interesting video thanks 🙏
Hello, can you use the white IV organic plant guard the protect the trunk on a mango tree?
Hello Patrick Pitsch,
Absolutely. IV Organic 3-in-1 Plant Guard can be used on all fruit & nut trees, ornamental trees, roses & shrubs. The product can be applied as a brush-on, tree paste and foliar spray. Let me know if you have any other questions. Charles :-)
May you tell me about my dying locust tree on what I can do besides from getting rid of it? Thank you so much.
Good morning Rosa,
I would start off by soaking the root zone with a lot of water and collapsing any possible tunnels with your hands (not feet) that may have been caused by underground tunneling rodents. Secondly, add a 2-4 inch layer of mulch (non-colored wood chips) around the root zone keeping a several inch space away from the trunk of the tree to prevent the risk of stem rot. Lastly, feed the tree with a balanced organic fertilizer. Feed the tree lightly as we are nearing the end of the growing season (fall) and to ensure that tree responds with more greening and/ or new growth. If nothing happens, I would still continue with the feeding into spring and summer (not winter) and see how it responds in the first half of next year. Lastly, you can do some light pruning (on growth less than 1-2 years old, to make a smaller plant that should further stimulate growth-- but be careful of sunburn by allowing too much light into the lower branches and trunk (unless protected with IV Organic product). Another preferred time for pruning would be late winter, between the time of the last chance of frost & new spring budding. Please keep me posted on your locust tree growing successes! Charles :-)
Thank you so much Charles. So happy you read my post and Replied!!! Thank you.
My pleasure Rosa! Keep me posted on your successes! Charles :-)
That's looks like the fertilizer burned the fruit. I did this to my citrus and same thing happened. Little black fruit.
AWSOME information, Thankyou, going to check to see if I can get this sunscreen for my trees in Australia, I live in the subtropics....
