    Just finished a plateful of yummy seedless elongated yellow grapes. Sweet like sugar. I wished I could dehydrate some of the few kilos that I got from the market. Googled & your channel came up. Good one & nice. But I feel puncturing them is not a great idea. Some farmers dry them in the sun. Of the dehydrator, it can be called the dryer too(not the hair dryer😅 or the xRay dryer which has been in use for decades). Tissues of frozen grapes get damaged on defreezing & may lose the juice too. Not recommended unless proved workable Bravo🎉

    I just managed to save my three year old pear tree from a fungal infection (by the skin of my teeth! It was really close!) I have noticed that it has begun to flower. It only started recovering three weeks ago! Should I make sure it doesn’t make fruit? I really want to make sure it put 100% of its energy into recovering, not fruit. I know how much energy that could take away from the tree.

      @@RaintreeNursery Yeah, this weather is very screwy, again, this year. Last year, the apple tree beside the pear tree flowered in October, because it was still so warm. Didn't get usual winter temps until January and in December, my niece was outside in the sun, playing with all of her new toys on my front lawn. Autumn-planted bulbs, onions, shallots and garlic had to wait until December to be planted, because it still felt like summer right up to November! And the during the winter, we had so little rain, our damns and reservoirs were only 40% full. We've had 30-45C temps since the first week of June and a hosepipe ban since soon after that. It still has not been lifted. I live in Peyia, Cyprus.

    I have 11 saplings that are 7 inches tall in a group. I obviously threw a bunch of seeds down not expecting them to come up but I’d like to separate them but heard they don’t like to be disturbed. Do you think they would be okay if I tried to separate them into pots to get rid of them? Any suggestions would help, Tia.

    • @RaintreeNursery
      @RaintreeNursery 28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      If you break the taproot of the seedling it will almost certainly die. Potted paw paw seedlings have the seeds sown directly into the final size pot so no repotting is required and the roots can remain undisturbed until planting.

    I live in the PNW, and blackberries are constant threat to your yard and landscape. So i keep them out, except for one large bush just in case I want them for something. However I have never attempted anything more than just picking and eating them until this year. So far in my two attempts to make juice I seem to have failed at it. The flavor is horrible. I am "NOT" a kitchen/cook person. So my question is... In both attempts that used different boiled water methods, is it possible to actually burn the juice if it boils? Cause so far, my juice tastes like burnt dirt and sour blackberries. Yet every method says bring to a boil.

    • @RaintreeNursery
      @RaintreeNursery หลายเดือนก่อน

      I use a steamer and steam extract the juice. You are probably burning the fruit fiber itself if you are boiling it in water. Steam extraction yields a much better result and you're going to cut it with water anyway so I don't worry about dilution. The flavor is still there.

    • @festersmith8352
      @festersmith8352 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@RaintreeNursery Thank you for the reply! My first method was place in water and bring to a boil. Then simmer for 3-4 minutes, mash and strain. It seemed pretty violent in the pan getting them to boil. So I assumed I didn't stir them often enough, and maybe kinda charred them on the bottom of the pan. Then I used your method *which seemed more simple than a constant stir), which also mentions boiling water for about an hour, for steam extraction. So I must not know some secret way to boil water without burning it.

Then a pair of male + female Actinidia arguta (hardy) plants, that will begin bearing 5-7 years after planting, and ripen early fall. Lastly, a pair of Actinidia deliciosa male + female fuzzy kiwis, which will start fruiting 2-3 years after planting and ripen mid-fall.
