Wow. Finally someone who properly shows the difference of pruning a tree correctly and incorrectly. I was so confused until I saw this video.
Very well explained.Excellent details are shown & treated as well. Thank you so much for sharing your skills & experience.
One of the most informative videos I've seen on any gardening topic. Thank you!
I am impressed. You strike me as a very knowlegeable person and thank you for the great tip!
Thank you Huikeun Kim for taking the time to thank me! Please keep me posted on your growing successes! Charles :-)
You give a lot of good info in this video. Thank you! 🌷
We have 4 trees at the our village in the Turkey. It is so delicious and healtfull fruit. In fall time, we make harvest and dry. It was a good times:)
Does it need 8 your full sun or you recommend plant tree in partial shade ?
So glad I sought out guidance...I have a fuyu persimmon tree, and a cherrie tree on a new property that I am learning about. This is so helpful, and I am grateful for your channel!
*cherry 🍒
Sure it's not a *cherry tree?
Every thing was very well explained. Thank you.
Thank you for your very informative video you help me alot my wife makes persimmon bread it's kind of like zucchini bread thank you for your time
You bring such joy and information to gardening! Just harvested many persimmons off our tree and learned a lot about pruning it in Jan/Feb. Our persimmons have to become soft to eat so I usually peel them and trim all the edible fruit off, then mash and freeze them. Use throughout the year in muffins, smoothies, etc. The IV organic is a prevention product I really like. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you SO MUCH for the compliment Judy! Wishing you & yours a happy holiday season!

It is also grown in Welcome Bay New Zealand. I pick & grade for export. Harvest season from mid May 3rd week of May. Best to pick is when it is yellow orange. Do not pick yellowish/greenish color.
Thanks for sharing the knowledge I have a fuyu and American persimmons
My favorite fruit, so good!!!
As awesome as always. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Persimon my favorite
Thanks for the tips. Last year I cleared an acre of wooded land and this year a see a gazillion persimmons starting. Mostly new trees. A few are new growths from stumps that were cut. I had no idea they were here but now I feel like I hit the jackpot. So, I’m trying to learn how to care for them. Some I will have to dig up and give away. Any tips on transplanting them?
I've read a few books about pruning and can add a tip to this video. You don't want to cover the cambium tissue with any stuff. Doing so will prevent the tree from healing and closing the wound. This is so important that now department of agriculture decided to discourage everyone from sealing the wounds.
So what you need to remember is apply the sealant carefully and leave the cambium ring alone.
Second thing i can add is if there's a tear on the side of the tree use a chisel and try to make the wound look like a lens (). Do it with least amount of damage possible and you don't have to cut the bark to exact shape of a lens. If wood is infested with decease like fungi you need a more experienced guy to handle it since it might be necessary to remove parts of the wood and fungicide before sealing the wood with a product.
Fully agree with your comments. He should have done a cleaning of dead wood and bark. That would have not affected the use and advertising of the line of products he promotes.
great video.
VEry informative. Thanks.
Omg!! Those r so yummy!!!! I’m in Maryland and just bought two. Would they be able to withstand with winter
your awesome man. thanks for your expertise. we have 3 types of figs...foo you too...lol. (persimmon joke) peaches apples grapes blie berries. ( going into 2nd year with all) i appreciate all your advice.
Dang, I'm too late saving my persimmon tree from the burrowers.. but I will buy 2 more and your tree paste to prevent this mistake again! :)
Hello MaxiiBoii23,
Sorry to hear about the persimmon tree! Can you send me pictures of the injured tree to Info@IVOrganics.com? Thank you.

...@charles - How long after you MIX the product.....will it last for good in the Can?
Great Video - Thanks as always!
Thanks for shareing
what type of soil does you put when planting the persimmon
Полезное видео. Все понятно.
Good information. I put new tree like few month before . It’s not growing at all . No growth and paused . I donot know what to do
I wish I could buy some graftwood from your non-astringent cultivars when you prune.
Thank you for sharing,. I have a question,. My persimmon trees have been 5 years old, why no fluids? I was planning by seeds. Please teach me how to do,. Thanks a lot!
Thank you
Wow...I got some of this from you and it just washes off in a short time. I do have some trees in and around my lawn so they get sprinkers. On 4 days a week. Any tips would be nice... I was just getting ready to buy a case....thoughts
Good video just starting to plant avocado and 2 permissions trees
permission trees!!! so funnee!

Where can I buy tree?when is best time to planet them? Thank you for information.
If I want to plant a fruit tree on my property that is on lower ground and next to my neighbor who puts non organic fertilizer on his grass, can I put my fruit tree in a container before putting into the ground so it's somewhat protected from the ground that may have some fertilizer due to my ground is lower than his? I am in zone 7b and thought about planting my fruit trees in containers but I don't want to move them indoor or not sure if they can survive the winter being in a container outdoor. Thanks.
Very good advise, may I ask how old is your persimmon tree ? I just bought 2 persimmon trees last week that include 2 different kinds, and I wonder how long they will give fruits.
They will "give fruit" for 20-40 years.
They will start to produce after 3 years.
His tree appears to be at least 12 years old.
Can you graft 2 kind persimmons into one tree? Does it need 8 hours full sun or shaded area? Beetles are grubs damage all roots and young tree barks.
For the IV Organics, what about the left over mixture after the paint? Can I keep it for next time use or I'll have to use it all up? Thanks.
Hello A Zhang,
The directions state that the product should be used within 2 weeks, once water is added. Otherwise, you can keep it frozen between uses to extend the life of the product for years. Let me know if you have any other questions.

is the persimmon tree will in tropical areas where there is no winter but only rainy season and summer season. Thanks
I had to put a net to cover my Fuyu Persimmon tree because the squirrels and birds have been getting every bit of the fruit I hope it wont hurt the tree.
Question: can a budding branch be planted directly into the soil? Right now it’s in water.
How do you deal with the canker beetle which attacks the citrus trees?
thanks
Would you ever prune in December after all leaves have dropped or would you wait until February for zone 10b ? Thank you 🕊
wait
good care
Last year I bought my first persimmon tree; she's well over 6 feet. As of three weeks ago I had roughly a dozen fruits on my tree and just last week all of the fruit was on the ground . Needless to say I miss pruning her in February March,so now I'm concerned that she won't fruit at all. Is there something I can do to help her fruit again this season? I live in Beaumont, Ca. Your video is very informative and thank you so much in advance.
Persimmon is water resistant Trust me ,u don't need to water it. I have 5 trees and I live in San Jose ,CA I can show a video how much persimmons I have last year

I’m late here to watch but have to comment this. When I was a kid helping my grandma in the garden one day I grabbed one off the tree. She goes. DONT EAT THAT ITLL MAKE A MOUTH AN THROAT DRY THERE NOT READY. ! Me being know it all 13yr old boy didn’t listen. Man seriously my mouth an throat kicked my ass. I was Friken worried for a bit trying to hide it. Then she notices an rips into me. Learnt my lesson the hard way. 🤣🤣
You look related to Jack Klugman. Thank you for the video BTW. I really wish there was more structured videos of at least the main American varieties. But each persimmon video just throws them all in together which makes it frustratingly difficult to choose the correct tree. There's not much info to find on the internet about this problem. I feel like I'm reliving AOL😢
Is there an advantage in growing my persimmon tree for the first two year or when they are at least 5 feet tall in a large pot where you can baby them before putting them in the ground?
Hello bubayou,
According to Tom Spellman, spokes person for the Dave Wilson Nursery (one of the largest fruit tree distributors in the country) he said at a prior lecture that all fruit trees will perform better in-ground, better than in pots.... with the exception of blueberries. I too would recommend that you go directly into in-ground planting, where you tree will grow faster, with stronger & better stretched & anchored roots. Unless, the tree is really small, say less than 1-2 feet... there can be advantages to keeping the tree off the ground where pests such as snails, rabbits, etc, can consume the tree before it has a chance to become anything. Here is that Tom Spellman lecture: ruclips.net/video/MirsH894QCQ/видео.html (go to 32:05) Charles :-)
Thank you Charles
My pleasure bubayou! Charles :-)
The best of all.
My new binge... two kinds. Plus can feed to pigs. And grow in USA! Gives zone’s!!!
What a lovely fruit......can it be grown in the Caribbean?
Yes probably but would be best to keep out of extreme direct sunlight or dampness. Its probably about like trying to have a peach tree...maybe a bit more northern than that in its native temperatures. This guy should know.
Will they grow in USDA Zone 8, Central Texas?
Do you have jujubes tree ? I miss jujubes fresh and dry .

Would it be possible to start a Persimmon tree in a pot indoors? I'm a military wife and and we have about 4 years of moving around left before my husband's contract is up. I'd love to start a tree to be ready for our forever home when we're done with the military life.
they sell them grafted, no need to pot one up, just wait until you are settled on your land
can you grow these from seed and if so how and what method.. please tell
they sell them as grafted bareroot similar to apples, cherries etc
How you going 3 trim the top of the tree it's so tall???
Sir could please give us a fertilizing time frame or schedule for persimmon trees? Thank you, Mike in FL (from Citrus Heights CA)
Hello Michael,
For your persimmon, as well as most fruit trees, they are most active (growing, fruiting, etc) in the spring, summer and fall-- So feed your trees with an organic granular (which breaks down over 2-4 months) in the spring, summer and early fall. No need to fertilize in the winter when the plants metabolism is the slowest. Other good practices include deep watering, and allowing the soil to dry (never bone dry) between watering, mulching, and pruning in the late winter (after chance of frost has past) and again in the middle of the growing season (such as early summer) to manage size and maximize strong (not leggy branches) that will support the blooms and fruits the following year. Keep me posted on your persimmon tree success!!! Charles :-)
Can we grow persimon trees in Arizona
what are the best ways of propagation of American persimmon. I know they cant be air layered.but tins of people still try on youtube lol.
Wow,how you planted the persimmon tree.I want a persimmon tree where can I get one. Thank you.
One of the most popular and least expensive ways of getting persimmon trees is as a bare-root tree. Available in early spring at a nursery or garden section of the hardware store. Bare-root trees are only available for a month or two, so keep an eye out for their availability. Better would be to ask the clerk when they are scheduled to be in stock, then mark your calendar for the event. Persimmon trees are usually more expensive than the other trees (peaches, plums, apples, etc...) so be prepared for the sticker shock. Buy as soon as they are in stock so you can pick the best one.
Here in Sacramento California @ Home depot and Green Acres nursery! it's kinda pricey from $60 - $130 for a 15 gallon.
@@richardmang2558 I got mine in local farmers market which is good because you know it was grown locally.
Hi 👋 I’m from a NJ can I grow a persimmon in NJ? and where can I get it?
chong losavio yes,you can grow it in NJ. I lived in Washington state,it still grew.
Eager to taste this fruit. In India I never see this fruit in any shop.
You said to be sure to feed the trees in spring, summer and fall with an organic granular fertilizer for fruit trees. Does it mean to feed them 3 times a year? I purchased persimmon grove 2 years ago, 6 acres, they only fed them once a year, in July. Secondly, could you recommend the best fertilizer for persimmon? By the way, we are organic. Thank you kindly.
Hello Kitacheeta,
Congratulations on the purchase of your persimmon farm!! YUMMY! What variety (ies) are your growing? About feeding, it is recommend that you fertilize your trees with an organic granular fertilizer lightly spring and fall, with the most important feeding being in the summer.... with very little to no care (feeding-wise) during the winter months. The reason for the heavier summer feeding is because the plant is most active with the longest and warmest hours of sun... hence the most active metabolism. I do not have a company I can recommend for fertilizers, however, I am sure you will be able to negotiate a wholesale price with one of the distributors. Please keep me posted on the success of your persimmon orchard!
Charles :-)
Do you have suggestions on how to keep birds, deer and squirrels away from my persimmons? Thank you

I have some persimmon trees here in N. Carolina and what I did was put an electric fence around it I bought on Amazon which is used for small farm animals. It won't kill them but give them a little jolt. I was having trouble with the squirrels and raccoons. After putting the fence up all that activity stopped. Be sure to build the fence to the hight of the intruder with the idea for them not to crawl under it also.
An exceptional video, But you left out three important points. First, how do you figure out what makes a male tree from a female tree in dormancy? Second, can I only work with girl trees if all I want is fruit? Third, WHERE on GAWD's green earth can I obtain those majic tree formulas you have used in the otherwise excellent video? Thank you for you production. I am making a nut - fruit orchard in Missouri.

Hello HaibTshajHaib,
Thank you! I planted that tree in Walnut Creek, California about 10 years ago! When did you plant your persimmon tree? It takes about 3-5 years to get the tree large enough to support this many fruit. Keep me posted on your gardening successes! :-)
Charles
my trees are two years old.
Hello HaibTshajHaib,
Be sure to feed your trees this spring, summer and fall with an organic granular fertilizer for fruit trees. That should help your trees reach their potential as soon as possible! Keep me posted on your persimmon tree's growing/ fruiting success!!! Charles :-)
@@IVOrganic Sir, mine are too vigorous and the fruits keep dropping. I had no choice but do a heading cut when the leader of one tree grew to 9ft on its second year. I aimed to maintain five main branches but ended up with three leaders shooting to outer space. Now seven more branches are following those rockets-wanna-be. My trees are two to seven years old and I only fertilized them once a year with vermicast. If only I can eat the suckers like vegetables, then I don't have to grow moringa trees. Oh, maybe my persimmons want to be moringa trees. Wow. Identity crisis.
@@tj21bem lol!!!!!!!!!!!! this is too hilarous tj21bem I love it lol!!!!
What happens to your audio? I can't hear one woek with my volume ay up to the max.
I decided to remove all of the lower branches from my persimmon trees, everything below 6'. The coyotes were eating the fruit from the lower branches and leaping up and biting any fruit below 6', all of the fruit had bite marks and was being damaged. The coyotes were breaking the branches as they struggled to reach more fruit. I was worried the tree trunk would be broken and the whole tree lost from the coyote activity. I saw similar coyote damage in jujube and peach trees. Coyotes eat a lot of my fruit.

Hi Charles. I’m in NY Albertson and in zone 7a. Can I plant persimmon here. Your tree looks amazing and so much fruit. I’m so happy for you. If I could plant here where I live, can you tell me which variety is better or good? Thank you for all your video. I’m also planting 7 fig tree in my backyard but no fig at all. Planted for about 3 years already. Can you tell me some advice?
Hello Maggie Cheung Blaize,
Persimmons do grow in growing zones 7-10, and if you were to only plant one, I would recommend the Fuyu variety which is self pollinating. However, having another (different) variety by your Fuyu will help both trees support even better quality, larger and heavier yields of fruit! With regards to your figs, did you plant one variety or multiple varieties-- Hopefully you planted a diverse selection of figs as some may perform better depending on soil. light and fertility, Figs do best with annual pruning of about 30-70% annually once the last chance of frost has passed, but before the buds begin to grow; which should be late February in your area. Please keep me posted on your growing successes!!! Charles :-)
Hi Charles. I planted IZU persimmon in my backyard and I’m in zone 7a. Do you think it will work? Also, like I told you I’ve planted 7 figs also in my backyard but no figs at all? I found out the name of the figs and they are dwarf figs hardy everbearing and Fantasia Scott’s black. Like I mentioned to you that I’ve planted the figs about 3 years. I only and finally spot ONE fig. I was so happy and continue to look for more. And No more at all. Please help
Maggie Cheung Blaize Get the Giant Fuyu from Willis Orchard and try to get the ones are ready for orchard. I bought 3 8-9’ tall ones from them and planted them in spring. They loaded in the second year.

I have a persimmon tree that’s about 7 years old. It has beautiful leaves, but doesn’t produce fruit. Any idea why?
If it hasn't made fruit by now it won't! It was probably started from a runner off the main tree and they NEVER make fruit. Go buy another tree or two if you want fruit. I hope this helps.
I have two persimmon trees in my side yards for over 10 years, why hasn’t it bear fruits.
I had one tree of persimmon but when start flower many of then but after two weeks the all falling to the ground the fruit .what I do ?
I have the same problem with my native persimmon tree astringent type it is not Asian fugu. I read it could be the soil has too much nitrogen, but not sure. I only have one tree it could be a need to buy a male tree pollinator. I fed it after end of February 10-10-10. Unless that is not the correct fertilizer. I hope we find the answer to this important question.
