if you don't know what he's doing he's cutting the roots to stress the plant. and that makes male plants turn into females because if the plant thinks it might die it wants to guarantee that it can reproduce so it switches genders so it can fruit. anything that damages the plant without killing it will make male plants turn into females.
Gr8 video. I remember we had 1 papaya tree near our house and we left it to grow until it started its 1st flowering, we then discovered it was a male plant. My husband got his cane knife and cut it off about 1 and half foot from its base. It didn't die, but out of that stump grew 2 new strong branches so we left it as is. Not long after they started flowering and they were both female branches and we had a bountiful harvest of papayas from that single tree with 2 branches, even shared them with the houses around us, its leaves for dengue and tender young ones for asthma attacks,,etc. both branches laden with so much fruits for different dishes....and to think we had it cut down, tsk, tsk, I went and apologised to it🙄 and thanked it for its many beneficial uses.😁
My grandparents are farmer. They have lots of experience and knowledge about plantations. They told me that all the papaya's has two kind of seed inside, brown and dark black. Those brown seeds are male papaya and black are female.

Thanks for sharing the information I got more than 15 plants n most of them were male only 3 r female now I know how to go for d right seed Thanks God bless you v
Wow it's nice to know this. Since I was planting papaya before and doesn't gave much fruit. They said it was male. It was completely waste of time for me. So I had to cut them lol. Thanks for sharing.
Long ago I have read a very experienced papaya farmer to id the very young seedlings from their genders, he said the roots type is very different that you can tell them since very young in the farm. The male one only have one main thick long root and the female ones have several separate roots, just like these seedlings in the film! I also learnt the male ones do fruit sometimes but not as tasty. -- here just to share what I learnt with those gardeners who are interested in growing them from seeds! :) Like all farmers they will only keep the strong, fast growing seedlings! Once my close neighbor who grew a female papaya in a pot in her 2nd floor balcony, only about 2'+ and able to bare quite many fruit, I was impressed! She just kept to compost the kitchen scrap into the pot.
I was not aware of the fact the male plants have one main big tap root. I have transplanted some of my seedlings and they all had one main tap root. I am curious now if all those plants are males. If so they won't give fruit. Will have to wait till warmer weather and see if all flowers just drop off. If so will have to cut the trunks off low to see if I they will change to female plants. Good information.
@@hayesweggeman7069 Papaya is a funny plant. The seeds of male usually in the 1/3 of the fruit near stem (trunk) but you could injure it on purpose by poke through the trunk near low part of the leaves with a thick woody rod or two once you sure the plant is male. By doing this, the male plant would like to produce fruit before it dies by changing the gender. It can still flower and fruit then just won't be as many and as tasty as normal female. The 2/3 of the papaya fruit seeds, the most of them would be female.
@@janemyfoodandflowers7726 Thanks for the feedback Jane. I will wait till summer to see if my papaya plants bear fruit. They are still young plants but they are flowering.

Great Video ..Thanks so much for the coaching ...At the beginning of the , I saw that your Papaya also can bear fruits planting inside the plastic bags ? Your reply is highly appreciated...Awesome ...
@@SokhaChetra Thanks for sharing. I have learnt a lot from this video and other persons experience. I cut the roots of my papaya before i planted 4 months ago. It's growing short and has male flowers. I'm very disappointed. Should i cut it down now.
It might also be good to add that the root of a male is one straight tap root and the female has two branching off. Many times I just plant all my seeds and when they are still small I will pull them out and look at the roots and discard the males.
All papaya seedlings, regardless of sex grow one tap root and four laterals. The tap root will grow deep into the ground and keep the plant able to withstand strong winds. The tap root also grows deep to search for water below the ground. The lateral roots develop fibrous roots that search for nutrient, etc. And may help anchor the plant down and keep it stable.
@@Dencioize your particially right but only males have one main tap root which is how you can distinguish the male from female. Believe me I learned this in Thailand when I lived there and have been successful my whole life on this teaching people about plant propagation techniques.

What an amazing video. I don't think I've ever spent this much time watching an informational video and reading all the comments. One question I have that I haven't seen addressed is in reference to the Papaya trees shown at the beginning of the video. Have these trees ever been put in the ground and have they grown to their size in a grow bag or pot? I live in SW Florida where we are prone to hurricanes and the possibility of a freeze in the winter and would like to be able to move my plants. Would you be so kind as to tell us a little more on how you grew such productive and short Papaya trees as shown in the beginning of your video. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
It seems like a stress or shock that causes the flower to express hermaphroditic parts (male and female) so that fruit is assured. Stress or shock can cause this in other nornally diaceous (male or female) plants. Its a survival mechanism like lettuce "bolting", or flowering early, due to the shock of high heat conditions. It ensures the next generations survival more than the regular mode if the plant exists in an undisturbed healthy stand with neighbors in the same generation.
You are right...the selection of male and female process is not clear.Cutting the roots may not justify the sex.single tap root in other videos shows the difference.Female has a lateral side root plus the tap.I have experiment it and they are right so far.
I wish I watched this video before. We ate a papaya we bought from the market and I liked it so much and scattered the seed s in the compound they all sprouted and I chose one good one and removed the rest .. Now the plant has grown into a big tree and has not brought any papaya fruit. They said its a male. Now please is there anyway I can make it bear fruit. Could it be turned to bear fruit or do I cut it down? What a shame it I need to cut the beautiful tree down. Someone help please any idea?
I saw from an Indonesian youtube channel, the papaya farmer gv a tip that to make sure we get female papaya trees, we shd divide the papaya into 3 equal parts horizontally. Then only take the seeds from the middle part. Those are the female trees seeds. I've never tried this though.

Thanks for the informative video! Why do you cut off those main roots... I’m sure there is a good reason, but I would have thought they’d be really important for the young plant? Thanks again!
Thank you for this information as I haven’t had much success in growing papayas. I presently have three trees about three feet tall and very skimpy looking. One has about 3 small fruits. I’m wondering if I should chop them down and start again with your idea of choosing that right seeds?
Are they fruiting? If not, try cut the stem leaving it 1m from the ground . Then we will get 2 branch come out . You need to fertilize it to get big stem
I liked your video very much and also I thank you for giving me these important tips which I am sure would benefit me and other farmer brothers. Thanks
Nice advice. I never knew the steps. Only I knew the dark seeds among all the seeds from a fruit are suitable to grow into healthy plants. Thank you for the tips.

GOOD INFORMATION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE REASON FOR CUTTING THE MAIN ROOT. ( ALSO WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE MAIN ROOT IS NOT CUT.)
I think it stops further downward root growth. Just like pruning the top of a plant.
It might also be good to add that the root of a male is one straight tap root and the female has two branching off. Many times I just plant all my seeds and when they are still small I will pull them out and look at the roots and discard the males.

@@Dencioize your particially right but only males have one main tap root which is how you can distinguish the male from female. Believe me I learned this in Thailand when I lived there and have been successful my whole life on this teaching people about plant propagation techniques.
And also to make a dwarf papaya just tip the top of any papaya plant and all growth will be concentrated on fruit production other than plant growth.
Also you can tell by seed which ones will be female by only choosing the darker seeds which have a higher female germination rate.
Good pointers on growing successful papaya trees. I have many trees planted but they are young. I am hoping that by next summer I will get fruit. The plants are flowering but it is really too cool at nights right now.
Best of luck!
Over wintering in pots when it gets really cold. Do you bring them into a unheated garage to keep from freezing

Greetings from Sri Lanka !
Very useful information!
Great to hear from. U
When should we plant the seeds what weather and season or timing or climate is better for this plant
Spring...
May I know why you choose more denser seeds as healthier ones? And also any reason behind cutting out main roots?
To make sure it's a female
Denser seeds are mature, those that float are immature and will probably grow weakly.
This applies to many species. Floating seeds don't germinate as a rule!

Thanks for the informative video! Why do you cut off those main roots... I’m sure there is a good reason, but I would have thought they’d be really important for the young plant?
Thanks again!
Dont know
To make sure is a female
Thank you for this information as I haven’t had much success in growing papayas. I presently have three trees about three feet tall and very skimpy looking. One has about 3 small fruits. I’m wondering if I should chop them down and start again with your idea of choosing that right seeds?
Are they fruiting? If not, try cut the stem leaving it 1m from the ground . Then we will get 2 branch come out . You need to fertilize it to get big stem
They don’t have any branches , just grows straight up. Perhaps they’re GMO seeds which don’t reproduce?
I liked your video very much and also I thank you for giving me these important tips which I am sure would benefit me and other farmer brothers. Thanks
Very good brother, thank you for the knowledge you shared
it is my pleasure

Thank you, I will try that method. I love papaya
Glad to hear that.
What if there are many seedlings sprouting on the ground. How do i choose which ones to keep?
choose the strongest ones
Hello, can you explain why do you cut the main root please ? Thanks :)
That's the way how they make a papaya sure to be female. Well let's try and see.
I just tried his method today let's see if it works. I'm over here in the Caribbean btw
Very nice and effective video is. Waiting for next video. Thank you so much. Go ahead. From kolkata.
Nice advice. I never knew the steps. Only I knew the dark seeds among all the seeds from a fruit are suitable to grow into healthy plants.
Thank you for the tips.
it is great that you like it
