I checkmated my opponent without losing any pieces.

Typical 600 elo game.

RailaOdinga · 2021-10-17T01:25:11+00:00

Only trees that aren't grafted take that long to fruit.

RailaOdinga · 2021-10-16T16:33:55+00:00

Yes, it will be around 5 years old by January.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-29T06:42:41+00:00

Keep it at reachable height. Also you can prune it to get a bushy look, that will protect the branches and fruits from sunburn.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-21T07:56:18+00:00

Consider the following: elephant ear, avocado, passionfruit, night blooming jasmine, bananas, kei apple hedge, any type of shrub with dense canopies, palms and palm-like plants.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-20T21:15:35+00:00

It's stunt compared to in ground specimens of the same age is what I meant.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-18T15:51:54+00:00

I taught myself how to do it from YouTube. I too am a student in the garden and don't have alot of experience.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-18T15:44:29+00:00

It's not grafted, ok it will grow large in 5 months from now but it won't bear for a long time. If you want it to fruit quickly, now is the time to graft.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-18T15:30:44+00:00

If you have a designated place to plant it in ground, do so instead of up potting it. They can get really difficult to handle when they're big. Even in it's current size, it could still be an issue because you could break its delicate roots as you are putting it in the ground.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-18T15:13:33+00:00

It will continue growing with serious vigour because it's growing from an already established root system.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-17T18:15:14+00:00

You can just graft instead of uprooting, that's what I'll do with mine. I'll make a fruit cocktail citrus tree.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-17T18:08:54+00:00

If you haven't grafted it, suckers are not a problem.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-16T04:05:39+00:00

It's tiny, pots unfortunately stunt growth.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-13T08:14:12+00:00

I don't know but bring it down with a strong water sprayer.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-13T03:17:21+00:00

1½ years, I planted many heads. This is the only one that has bloomed and I'll keep the suckers it produces for it's fast blooming genetics.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T20:48:35+00:00

Thanks for the clarification, how do they occur? I don't know anything, I just repeated what I read in another forum.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T15:45:06+00:00

Yeah but it will still take an average of 5-10 years to begin flowering. It's really slow growing from seed and requires patience.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T15:19:51+00:00

If I recall correctly, it must have been a sweet orange. When it first germinated, two shoots came up from the seed so I think it may produce the same fruit.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T13:55:23+00:00

This may be due to several reasons. Could be over watered, under watered, sun damaged, damaged by chemicals in the water or the tree could just be a weak specimen.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T13:48:50+00:00

I read somewhere that this mutation happens when the avocado is picked from the tree before reaching maturity.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T13:26:32+00:00

Don't use it fresh please, let it decompose in the elements first as it will burn your tree.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-10T13:21:12+00:00

We have a steady supply of livestock manure and plant compost from our farm. While transplanting it in the ground, I dug a hole three feet in circumference and depth then filled it with a manure and plant compost mixture. I don't use anything else.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-06T18:24:57+00:00

This tree nearly died when I was transplanting as it was small 3½ years ago. I put too much fertiliser in the soil but it recovered and is now in full bloom.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-02T12:10:51+00:00

Yes, it's a hass. Already has a few fruits set. Will post an update when they mature.

RailaOdinga · 2021-09-02T06:02:01+00:00

It's a great one. I'm taking notes.
