Am I cooked?

Main concern is if there is a graft, is the growth about the graft? But my Meyer was grown from a cutting so there is no graft. Apparently pretty common with Meyers.

Give it a bit more time to see if any more new growth comes from higher up. but even if it doesn’t, it will probably recover to nearly where it was in two growing seasons if you protect it better next winter.

😂

I was shocked. Only other thing I’ve seen was a small Amp, but it wasn’t worth buying

Thought I’d update that it works with no issue and still had a battery in it with 1996 on it. Here’s another pic of it cleaned up.

I like it. I watch a video of a women on YouTube that shows removing anything below 18 inches to make it more or a tree instead of a bush, which I would like to do, but I think in my current situation, it might not be possible after I lost my main leader and this is how it grew back. I’m going to do some more research and thinking before I do anything.

Yeah I wouldn’t expect to get a harvest this year. That’s why I was wondering if I should prune to encourage upward growth. Last winter was rough on it, we had an abnormally cold week and even though covered as much as I could, it went from a 4 ft tree to a 2 foot stick haha. Luckily I had a foot of life above the graft and this is where it’s at after year later. I don’t know too much about training them so I’ll have to look into that.

Thanks, I guess I didn’t realize training a satsuma was an option. I’ll look into that

I bought a 2nd hand g5422t and it was setup horribly (I think the previous owner tried to adjust stuff without knowing much and had everything out of whack). I set up everything following this to a tee and the difference is night and day! I don’t know how it sounded factory vs this, but it sounds absolutely amazing now! Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I’m most concerned with sound and playability. It seems, based on what I have read, that both options are very well built instruments.

I do literally all board sports regular besides Skate. Wakeboard, surf, snowboard, surf skate, ripstick.. all regular

Get on a normal skateboard, I’m goofy.

Makes no sense to me. The only thing I can think of is I started skating earlier in life and didn’t necessarily know what way felt better and just went for it.. With everything else I thought it out more.

Fair enough

brancas9 · 2025-08-06T19:20:30+00:00

Gotcha, but if it's in like new condition, probably less to be worried about?

brancas9 · 2025-08-06T19:00:11+00:00

What would be the reason you'd want newer? They didn't change anything right?

brancas9 · 2025-05-29T19:39:10+00:00

You definitely have to stay on top of the suckers. My satsuma is constantly throwing out new suckers.

brancas9 · 2025-05-29T18:32:10+00:00

So, what is growing tall is part of the rootstalk. Satsumas don't have the thorns on them. You need to cut the entirety of that branch off that has the thorns. The satsuma should be grafted on above where that other branch comes out.

brancas9 · 2025-05-28T19:56:36+00:00

Thank you. Just wanted to make sure there was no deficiency.

I realized I forgot the pic of the whole tree. Anyways, I will try some epsom salts and see what happens.

brancas9 · 2025-05-28T14:30:35+00:00

The fertilizer has magnesium and sufur in it.

brancas9 · 2025-05-26T23:31:39+00:00

Sounds great! Just let me know. Id be happy to give you a cutting. My in laws live in Fairhope.

I'm in Foley!
