Wondering if you have an update on these? I’m about to pull my seeds out of the fridge soon and looking for the most successful method! Thanks for the videos
I did take an update video. I looked for it to link here and did not find it. It appears it did not get published. I'll go through my archives and see if I have enough footage to put a video together.
I have some seedlings growing from seeds that were naturally stratified outside in a plastic bin filled with coconut cour mixed with organic soil. When theyre tall enough for their big leaves to start popping off their seed casings, can they be transferred to a tall pot as is, or is it best to wait for them to lose their leaves during the winter when theyre a little more taller?
I was just gifted a bare root seedling and am curious to whether I should plant now (zone 7 Mid Atlantic region) or plant in a pot and wait to plant in the ground in Autumn.
You want to plant it as soon as possible. If there are leaves on the plant you will need to keep it moist and not let the roots completely dry out for a month or more.
Last year I did exactly what you are, although I used a 30 gallon pickle crock and fewer seeds. I didn't wait until the leaves fell off to remove them and place them in tall pots. They were kept in a sunny cold room all winter, watered every few weeks, lost their leaves, and all came back wonderfully. I put some in the front yard with my old pawpaws and some in the creek bank. The ones in the creek are growing very slow. I use an old metal fire pit cover to shade the seedlings, they grow well with dappled sunlight and the pests don't bother them.
When you said Frederick, MD I just about fell over. I have some seedlings going. One is about 4 inches. I’m wondering if they will be too tender by the time winter rolls around. Any advice?
Pawpaws are native to the MD area. The one thing I have discovered is that plants in pots can not handle the cold as well as plants in the ground. I'd recommend getting them in the ground as soon as possible. If that can't be done for some reason, like you are going to move and don't want to plant them, then at least bury the pot itself so it can be dug up when you move.
Thank you for pawpaw videos, do you have any videos with updates about your pawpaw trees? I am going to plant seeds very soon for the first time and trying to get as much info as possible.
You prolly dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream pretty much all of the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend for the last few months xD
You can often find seeds on ebay, and it's probably not too late to have a look. That's where I sourced mine. The first two times I used the refrigerator method, I had a low germination rate but when I stratified them naturally outside here in the UK, I had almost 80% germination - although it takes until mid July for the sprouts to appear.
I only know of one place that you can probably get them, but right now is not the right time. I friend of mine, Michael Judd - Author of "Edible Landscaping with a Permaculture Twist", has access to quite a few paw paws every year and I'm pretty sure he sells them. His website is here: www.ecologiadesign.com/ and if you go to the contact link, ask him if he will sell you some. The seeds will need to be stratified, so if Michael doesn't stratify them for you, you can watch my other video on how to do that: th-cam.com/video/NXLGaubNWJc/w-d-xo.html Good luck!
Thanks a bunch! According to one range map I saw they are native to where I am (Harris County, GA, right near the southern edge of the range map), but I wouldn't know where to find one and I imagine they're pretty uncommon in the wild here. Then again I have no clue. I'll definitely look into contacting Michael.
Bad Drivers of Columbus, Georgia You could contact KSU Pawpaw and request free seeds that have already undergone stratification. They give them away m.facebook.com/ksu.pawpaw/
I do not sell the seeds. I just ran a search on Amazon and found these seeds, but I can not vouch for them as I've never purchased from this company before. amzn.to/2J8WQux

@@greatescapefarms any update?

That's awesome! Thanks for the reassurance. I'll be doing a final video next year on how it turned out.

Asimina triloba is also found in southern Canada, west to Kansas, and south to northeast Texas and northern Florida.
Thank you for sharing!
Try planting a pawpaw tree using the E.G.W. Blueprint tree planting method !
20 times more growth, within 3 years, by weight ! And earlier flowering !
thank you!
Im definitely goin foraging this fall
Good luck.
i accidentally cut the root in half , will it survive? it has some small transverse roots
It will likely survive, but will never be as strong as a tree that never had the tap root cut.
Squirrels will dig up sprouted and unsprouted seeds to eat the seeds. I've lost a year old seedling to squirrels.
They're a pain. They keep eating my figs off my trees
@@beebob1279 shoot that mf
Squirrels are very destructive in our nursery as well.
Thank you for pawpaw videos, do you have any videos with updates about your pawpaw trees? I am going to plant seeds very soon for the first time and trying to get as much info as possible.
I have several videos with different stage paw paws on the site. I may put together a paw paw playlist once I get caught up on comments.

@Alec Ethan Yup, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself :)
@Alec Ethan yea, have been watching on InstaFlixxer for since november myself :)
@Alec Ethan yup, been using instaflixxer for years myself =)
BUGS LOOK LIKE THEY LIKE EM !
:) They do, but don't seem to do much harm.
Bugs will try eating them but usually lose interest .
Do you sale any of your seedlings?
I do sell seedlings, but only locally. I do not ship any more because of all the required inspections.

Do you know of a good place to get Paw Paw seeds online? Enjoyed the video!

You never know what you may find in the wild. I went into a state park in Maryland last year and was surprised at the number of paw paw trees there.
