  • In this video, I share aspects of my fruit forest with you.
    The Carambola, also called Star Fruit, is a small to medium sized tree that produces a juicy tropical fruit. The flavor combines those of the apple, grape and citrus and is crisp in texture. Some of the common varieties of Carambola include: King, Bell, Sri Kembangan, Arkin, and Fwang Tung.
    On this channel, I help you to create your fruit forest. I also introduce you to all kinds of new and interesting plants, and I let you know how to get them. Most of the plants and trees I cover are edible, but some are just plain beautiful! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE and TURN ON ALL NOTIFICATIONS, New Videos and Live Streams all the time.

    living in the west indies, having a small orchard with veggies for ourselves and little space left.
    12 young starfruit trees ( 3-6 months)in pots . started from seeds, same way you re showing us.
    replaced them in bigger pots.80% success.
    now i resurge a-bit.t
    hey like sunshine, adapt to the heat.overwatering a no go.
    after hurricane season i will put them in the field (nov. /dec )
    of course i like the rabbit manure,as we are having only cow manure.
    thanks and success to everyone trying according to circumstances.

    Man those young fruit trees are what it's all about for me. I love to try growing tropical fruit trees from seed or cuttings.
    Haha 😄 the end is soo hilarious

      Same here! I get so stoked growing fruit trees. I think you and I are clearly dialed into the same frequency bro. GOT, check out my new vid style on my surfing channel th-cam.com/video/d8ZFGix8RmA/w-d-xo.html also is my original music.

    I have been trying to grow starfruit from seeds. Of the 20-30 seeds I've planted, (water, paper towels, potting soil, seed starter mix) not a single one has germinated. I've used many fruits of different ages, ripeness. I'm in Arizona.
    Any suggestions?

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, I question to the freshness of the seeds you are using. It us really important to get them from a fully ripe star fruit. Then, they germinate very easily. I hope you will subscribe to my new original music channel JediJingleMaker, check it out and leave a comment, thanks! th-cam.com/channels/mX3Zx6o1_g1fsmRqzfXj7A.html

    My Starfruit seedlings died a few months ago But luckily I got another Starfruit from the grocery and ready to make a next attempt on Starfruit seedlings!

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, they are very tender plants when young. I think anything under 50 degrees on the tiny saplings is too much, I have lost many in those conditions also.

    @lorenbush8876 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Have you ever grown any from seed that you got fruit from? If so was it as sweet/geed tasting as the fruit from the original tree? Thanks I ordered some seed from a guy that was selling fresh starfruit on Etsy and said he would not harvest fruit and get the seeds until someone ordered some, I wish I had had sense enough to ask him to start them in some wet/moist paper towel. Thanks man

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, many times, it is extremely easy to grow from fruit. I would take the seeds from fruit that ripened on the tree.

      @@EatYourBackyard I'll go check it out. I did get one seedling out of the seeds I ordered from the guy on Etsy so far, it took way longer than I think it should have but I have that hopefully more will germinate.

  • @jamestropicals8262

    As young seedlings they can be Delicate and you have to really carefully with them and when it gets older it’ll be strong healthy tree

    So, when exactly should I trim my young tree and how do I get it to branch out; this is why I watched your video. My tree is about 6 months old

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      After the last threat of cold temps is the best time. Also, give it a good organic fertilizer for best results, I use da bunny manure. I hope you will also check out my original music channel and subscribe, it is new, th-cam.com/video/2NoReptEW3E/w-d-xo.html

    How do you quickly ripen a green Starfruit from the grocery store?

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Best way I know is to leave it on the counter where air can get to the whole fruit. I think the process just takes as long as it takes since the sugars actually change in the process.

    I've got some starfruit seeds to germinate. But they all died, don't know what went wrong.

  • @lorenbush8876
    @lorenbush8876 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How long do the seeds stay viable? Thanks

    • @EatYourBackyard
      @EatYourBackyard  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have only ever used them fresh, not sure how long they will last dried out. I will save some and find out.
