Love KSU pawpaws. I have one tree of KSU Atwood, one of my favorites
I am 50 yes old, lived in Maryland, Wisconsin, Oregon, California, Nevada, Texas and Florida and this is the first timeI have every even heard of them. I hunt, fish and grow large gardens in the past, what a Dumbazz I am. ... LOL
Dont feel bad im in the pawpaw belt and hardly anyone knows what they are.
I lived in Maryland for 18 years before I learned about them lol
If you ever hiked along the C and O Canal, you walked past many paw paw trees. They are all over Maryland, especially near the Potomac and Patuxent rivers.
I live by heavily wooded wet area in maryland and i knew about them they grow along the sides of roads too outside of urbanized areas, once you see their leaves they are easy to spot
I have 3 paw paw trees. I can't wait to taste the fruit!
Hey KSU!
I have 25 acres of hill and holler with lots of Paw Paw growing wild. Last year I came across a young tree fruiting for its first time and it's pulp was cream colored, unlike all the others I've come across. This year it fruited again and the pulp is again cream colored and mild in taste, something different than the sulphur colored fruit. I look forward to eating my Paw paws exclusively from this tree......mebbe I'll eat more than a couple a season....lol.
it might be worth shooting an email to Kirk or Sheri - KSU might be interested in those particular paw paws, I know they frequently venture out into the forest in search of wild paw paws that could make good cultivars. If you're willing to donate a couple, shoot them an email: kirk.pomper@kysu.edu and sheri.crabtree@kysu.edu
@Ni-dk7ni Haven't done anything with it aside from eating off it. This year I noticed that the fruit I didn't pick stayed on the tree long after peak ripeness, into winter. They were inedible by then, mummified so to speak. Odd.
I love information in pure form wind blowing makes it better. Thanku for this beautiful video and energy.
Interesting stuff.
I'm growing them from seed here in the UK and hoping that our relatively cool maritime climate is acceptable for Pawpaws. We don't have the high heat of their native range, but of course we do have longer daylight hours through the summer.
They're hardy down to -10, more with various methods to assist in retaining heat. Good luck!
@@NormalCredit-21 I doubt the cold will be a problem. I assume you are talking -10 Fahrenheit, and if so, we've never come near that in my lifetime, despite being on the same latitude as Churchill on Canada's Hudson Bay.
Summers tend to be cool and damp though, with only a few days a year topping 30 degrees Celsius.
Either way, the trees have attractive foliage.

4:25 niceeee
6:25 i love the care
When you mentioned pawpaw wine, I just had to say, try a CY17 yeast on that.
It will clarify fast. So fast in fact, you can bottle it too early and make a great sparkling wine.
Ours was an accident, but we are in the process of trying to do it again on purpose.
We like Mango and Overleese here
Also, what do you folks think about freeze dried pulp?.
Thank you
EXCELLENT - Thanks!
I want some of that Pawpaw ice cream.
Do you guys offer any tours of the orchard??? The paw paw fruit is a small obsession of mine
I just planted the paw paw trees in Florida this year. I don’t know much about them like their name might have come from papaya. We have plenty of papayas in Florida . I’m glad they’re native to America. There should be more of them especially they taste like papaya and banana.
Pawpaw may do fine in north FL but will not usually get enough winter chill in central and south Florida. Sugar apple and atemoya are pawpaw's tropical relatives can do well in the southern and central Florida.
I would really like some info on preserving pawpaw if you have any.
They benefit from and come from Fungally dominated soils....so the fact these trees arnt under like 6 inches of woodchips....I have no idea. Also build short term compost piles underneath the trees to attract the flys.
Great info.
Fortunately most pawpaw trees are healthier than the ones we are seeing in this video. I hope nobody thinks this is normal.
I am surprsied they still get the fungus out in the open thought woudl only be on understory ones
I'm amazed this is even possible. In nature, the only place I've seen pawpaw is on a floodplain in medium to deep shade.
Glyphosate could lead to injury claims when orchard workers potentially including students get cancer from it. I hope the university can afford large damage claims. Do you know if your glyphosate is reaching the ground water? I would have thought its use would be criminalized after Monsanto was forced to pay damages to its victims.
i bet possums love this place
I have a grove in 7a NY. We planted three trees 20 years ago. Great success but the grove is overgrown. Our main trees are huge and leaning. We allowed sucker to grow and thus the grove has become very thick. Thinning now seems way over due. Can we top prune to control height? Should we cut down the leaning large trees , leaving the saplings that have grown from the "mother's" root? Should we create more of a grove similar to yours?
The saplings will be clonal genetics of the parent tree, so if they are tasty and the main tree is leaning that can work. Topping will most likely have negative repercussions on larger trees but may work on training the smaller
ahh yes.... You have a gold mine with the root suckers. I graft to them with my custom grafting method. th-cam.com/video/3TN_EfsvTus/w-d-xo.html
Not sure if it has been considered, but using the right compost teas is a great way to prevent disease and is cheaper and healthier for the environment. Maybe even replace the grass with better ground cover. Let nature do the work.
Where is the best place to get pawpaw scion wood? I would like to graft 2 trees I have planted in the ground.
I grow pawpaw in a planter, but I am in trouble because the number of scarab beetle larvae is increasing. Are there any pesticides suitable for extermination?
Sorry for the sudden contact.
Try copper or neem oil! No promises, but please keep me updated!
Instead of spraying copper spray, just put some copper tubing in loose rings around the upper branches so that the rain will spread the copper oxide over the lower branches. It keeps the black crud and moss from growing on the tree.
What does that do, keep fungi from growing?
@@Salmiyaguy1 So far it as kept the moss from growing and I believe it has kept the fire blight from getting out of hand.
Can I buy a tree to plant
Are the leaves toxic to horses or sheep?
How to peel for freezin
Where might the research be published?
Not sure Steph B! You can check out KSU website at www.pawpaw.kysu.edu or by searching KSU pawpaw on Facebook or TH-cam.
@ They only survive better understory during first two years, after that produce better full sun.
is ash from wood fire good for them??
I just planted 6....
I would not put wood ash on them because they prefer an acidic soil wood ash will make soil alkaline.
@@amandamattingly5260 I should have googled that myself. You are correct they do prefer acidic soil....I planted them in garden soil....I guess Im going to just add calcium nitrate...
@@Bakalakalajihad I"m pretty sure calcium nitrate will increase the soil pH making it less acidic!

@@costidavid3269 That's funny. thank you.
Where can I get some small pawpaw trees at I want some

Hi is there any one can send me some pawpaw seeds to Algeria I want try plant it .
I am having trouble finding info anywhere about using dried pawpaw wood as a fuel for smoking meat. There are many sucker pawpaw in my patch, and I'm looking to thin some of them out. Thank you kindly!
I wouldn't recommend smoking the wood due to a natural toxic chemical compound called Annonacin found in most parts of the tree.
Can you help me get started here in Lewisburg KY? I need help with this and Id like to have you help me plant other fruit Trees here and Blueberries Strawberries and Grapes let me know asap
Hey Susan, I'd recommend looking at some of our other videos about how to propagate. You can also get in touch with KSU directly for seeds! kysu.edu/academics/cafsss/pawpaw/
How to order paw paw seeds
a microphone cover please! that wind made the video mostly intolerable.
Can you pls supply paw paw seeds ? Thanks 🙏
We don't have any more but you could try reaching out to KSU and ask - their contact info is in the video description
There are vendors who sell bulk seeds.
How far apart do you plant the trees?
8' apart with 20'+ alleys
@@BeargrassThunder Thanks so much!
My two are about 30 feet apart, but I hand pollinate them, so I get a lot of fruit.
Aren't these fruits filled with a neurotoxin?
Don't eat unripe fruits or the seeds!
indeed, 100s of acetogenins, which over consumption can lead to Guadeloupean Atypical parkisoneism (shit sounds scary). However, they also have shown to cause apoptosis in numerous types of cancer most notably (majority to be safe but probably ALL) liver cancers... We dont have info for long term accumulative effect. just a study that came to conclusion if you where to eat a soursop(same family & same type of proteins) fruit everyday for a year, you'd developed GAP. the seeds contain high amounts, IE plants says: dont eat our seeds. but again i'll paraphrase Paracelsus "the difference between a medicine and a poison is dose"
@@cannibalcanna3427 Also, different named varieties have different levels in the fruit. There is a short list somewhere. It made me sad to see Overleese on the high side, because it's a great variety. We treat it like anything else and just have a little and enjoy it.
Wonder if they are there as some kind of fall wormer? LOL
The skin and seeds.
