Place Gutter guards around Pineapples once they are full size. I bought the larger 5.9" expandable gutter guard downspout extension last year and all 3 Pineapples survived the critters. I was able to allow pineapple to fully ripen before removing. No damage from critters. Bought them on Amazon
Hi! I have to tell you that I truly enjoyed and appreciated this video … I’m in Tampa. I’d love to order some of your plants/clippings. I’m trying to grow some things… have to split my banana niw… too many popped up in the bucket. My lemon tree died but I’m wondering if it can be revived…. My other plants came back…. New subbie…. Will watch your other videos. I’m soooooo happy that your channel popped up🌷 Will order some plants from your site… I hope the ones I want are there🥰 Peace and Blessings 🌴🌴🌷🌷🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hi Lorena, Welcome to my channel! Thanks so much for watching. I had a key lime in a pot that never came back too but my lemon seems to be doing well. Yes, check out my store
Is that saint Elizabeth scallion like a shallot that divides? Does it need cold weather to divide? I’m looking for new onion varieties to try. Thinking about trying cipollini types … they seem like they might do well at the 28th parallel from seed. There are a couple of red candidates I’m thinking of. I’m just not having luck with traditional short day varieties. 10a west coast central Florida.
Hi Pat! I noticed in your video two mango trees you had mentioned Sweet Tart and Blackie that I'm actually looking to buy. I went to the Brevard Tropical fruit club tree festival held at Melbourne Auditorium and hosted by (Pine Island Nursery) on April 27. I bought several tropical fruit trees but I got there late and missed out on all the different mango trees they had because they were sold out, and I'm just curious to know where did you get your Sweet Tart and Blackie mango trees to buy😊
Hi Frankie. Blackie mangos aren't sold anywhere from that I know. A neighbor gave me this seedling. I bought my sweet tart mango from Jamaica Farms. Check out the video I did recently on 20 acre farm. They have over 100 different kinds of mango trees for sale
I am very close to Palm Bay and just moved to the area and struggling with the weather to get my garden going. I love watching your channel and didn't realize you're here in central.
No problem we will. Ask as many questions as you wish. I didn't know the variety. Original papaya from my mom's house over 20 years ago. Keep replanting seeds
I don't know if it divides. We used it till it was gone. I didn't think we dug it up. I think it got overwhelmed by other plants. I just got one little root and we made it last for months
Im having a hard time after mulching so heavily and recently went from hand watering to drip irrigation acclimating all my plants to the switch. At this point I don't know if I'm putting too much or too little water on the ground. Some plants are starting to show in their foliage changing color or looking sad. Even my guava tree the guavas stopped growing.
@@angeldearmas1331 I'm so sorry to hear. I think it's the heat at this point. I have a sprinkler system plus I hand water some plants but the leaves are burned up. I'm considering trying to add shade clothe over a couple that are looking really bad. Most of my trees are ok but more tender ones are suffering
That is the fluffiest papaya I have ever seen, nice❤

Are those wood chips in your garden?

That is wonderful. Doesn't get any better than that

Yes I know. 😂

Thanks so much for stopping by. I had never even heard of it till I got some
I enjoyed the tour 🥰🙌🏽….I’m happy to see that your papaya trees are healthy now! Do you know the name of the varieties of your papaya trees?
Thanks Shannie. No I didn't. These have been in my family for way over 20 years. All are grown from seed from the original plants
Hello Pat, where did you get the covers for the peaches 🍑? Thanks
I bought on Amazon. Here's the link

Backyard I looking for a yellow yam head to plant. How can I get it if FlORIDA?
Hi there, I'm not planting any this season. Best way is to buy a piece from Caribbean store and plant the head. If not close to a store, try Etsy
Omg where you get that hog plum tree??
They are available in South Florida. I have a couple available for sale but local only
Nice garden! im by the UCF area . I have grapes to when did you plant them? i get most my plants from lukas nursery
Hi there, I planted from bare root year before last. I've Heard of that nursery. I'll need to check it out one day
Hey pat,where in central Florida you get sweet potatoes slips?I just started my garden, I put some to grow the slips but 😂I don't wanna wait
Hi there I started my own slips. Are you in Palm Bay?
I am very close to Palm Bay and just moved to the area and struggling with the weather to get my garden going. I love watching your channel and didn't realize you're here in central.
What is a sersee flower cersee? Not sure.🤔
It's the little yellow flower that appears before the cerassee fruit
Good morning, I love your channel, where can I purchase the jamaican banana l? I would love to add to my small Forrest.
Thanks so much! Depends on where you live. You can get at a nursery or try Etsy
Here in florida, it's called Jamaican banana. Thanks again
@@msfruitful8445 try A Tree 4 Me in Sebastian. I know they had many bananas and plantain. Or call Jamaica farms in Port St Lucie
What variety of papaya? Just grocery store variety? Red lady? Sorry so many questions.
No problem we will. Ask as many questions as you wish. I didn't know the variety. Original papaya from my mom's house over 20 years ago. Keep replanting seeds
I don't know if it divides. We used it till it was gone. I didn't think we dug it up. I think it got overwhelmed by other plants. I just got one little root and we made it last for months
Hey Pat, how often do you water your plants during this season? Do you hand water or have drip irrigation?
Hi there, I have a sprinkler system that we run twice a week however the water definitely isn't going deep enough at all
Im having a hard time after mulching so heavily and recently went from hand watering to drip irrigation acclimating all my plants to the switch. At this point I don't know if I'm putting too much or too little water on the ground. Some plants are starting to show in their foliage changing color or looking sad. Even my guava tree the guavas stopped growing.
@@angeldearmas1331 I'm so sorry to hear. I think it's the heat at this point. I have a sprinkler system plus I hand water some plants but the leaves are burned up. I'm considering trying to add shade clothe over a couple that are looking really bad. Most of my trees are ok but more tender ones are suffering
What is the best guava type for Fl weather. I enjoy watching your videos
Not sure what the best is but my Mexican pink guava beard fruit almost for the entire year. Constantly pushes out blooms year round and it's delicious
Thanks Pat
Hi I'm in swfl. And my guava is 3 years and nor fruiting.. any tips? Ty.
Is your guava from seed or grafted. If from seed it may need an extra year or so what kind of guava is it?
What type of thyme are you? growing in Central florida
Hi there, broad leaf thyme
How big is your land?
1/2 acre
Can you eat callaloo without cooking it?
I don't eat raw but read that the very young tender leaves can be eaten raw
@@backyardfarmerpat I’ve only had it cooked, but was curious
What you put on your gauva, my tree look dry lot of yellow leaf
I sprayed all my trees with liquid seaweed and aspirin to make healthy. Everything will look good after we get some rain m
@@Carlos1075 really? Hmmm.
Where are you located in Florida?
Palm Bay, zone 9b
Is that a Vietnamese pomegranate?
It's a generic one I got for $13 at Lowe's. It didn't say Vietnamese
