Gotta dig the pre post music
Damn… this is ridiculously good info man. These trees seem to be specific to a certain climate but it definitely made sense like the weeping star fruit info and the trimming of the guava leaves. Makes sense from a logic pov.
Informative episode, as always. Thanks!
🤯yes please do more videos with him that was awesome!
Can't wait to prune back my starfruit tree! Thanks
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! ☝🏻🌞Thank you very much so to Mr.Leaf too!! 🍃😎🙏🏻Blessings kind sir! Please do go back to Leaf for more videos & information!! Warmth & Sunshine from Florida!🌞🏝🍊
Great vid, John. Oil the fence.
Wasted my time!!! Where the ef his fig trees???
Mix 50% soil by volume with 25% biochar by volume with 20% rock dust powders by volume and 5% fully fermented compost known as humus by volume. 50 cubic feet of soil + 25 cubic feet of biochar + 20 cubic feet of rock dust powders-mixtures + 5 cubic feet of fully fermented compost known as humus. Mixed together while being sprayed with a fine mist of water to moisten the mixture and to keep down dust until it is finely fully moistened and mixed to the point that the biogeochemical processes in that soil mixture is fully BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVATED and turning it into an enriched and living soil. You can maintain it's fertility by recycling plant agricultural biomass to feed the living soil benevolent soil microorganisms. How thick the soil should be ranges from 6 inches to 5 feet deep.
Thanks for the video
26:44 lizard or gecko on the tree behind him. Lol
How many properties DO you have? Las Vegas and Peuto Rico? What is the difference between Atemoyas and Cherimoyas? They look alike.
Could you do a video on growing dragon fruit? I've never seen how these fruit grow. They are basically a cactus 🌵 ! And his fruit are enormous. ( Except for the Atemoya). Plus a video about Pawpaw's ( Papaya) plus the Atemoya. I wonder if I could travel to Florida to check Lieph's backyard tree pruning methods. 10 mins is not enough. There is so much to learn. Thanks, John (?). A lemon meringue Mango tree????? Boy, what other varieties are there?
Did anyone else see lizard on tree like what's up I want to be on camra😅😂
Excellent content, John. Thank you for sharing the intelligent pruning tips. It would be ideal if you visited Leaph again in the future to find out more tips about pruning other fruit trees, such as mangoes, sapodillas, and other tropical trees, and for companion planting tips. Again, I greatly appreciate this highly valuable information that you are generously sharing with the community.
I cannot wait to see what innovative methods you implement, and what exciting things that you can accomplish on your own tropical property, John, e.g. Cacao and Coconut plantation…
Cheers,
Auth
Wish to find out for all other fruit trees. Apricots, apples, cherries, peaches, etc.
Where is leaph's place!?
Address !!???
❤ I love Leaph!
Lol yep that's Leaph…don't interrupt 😂😂! I learned that too!
Too much talking.
You gotta start carrying wet wipes for the camera lens! ✌
Would love to here how he prunes avocado
John Thank you😊
You talk too much about nothing.
John can you please help? can you shout out help for the small business sprout people.. just saw their article newsletter on substack what google is doing to them and their business .. it aint right and we can help them .. "searched big G (google) for s”Sproutpeople”. The first thing that showed up was True Leaf Market – a much larger competitor that is a conglomerate of several companies they have purchased over the years. They sell everything – not just seeds and supplies for sprouts and microgreens. THEY PAY GOOGLE TO TAKE OUR NAME SPROUTPEOPLE AND TAKE OUR BUSINESS – so if you search for OUR name – they appear on top. That is just plain WRONG! They are siphoning off customers who search for us by name. That is predatory behavior. We trademarked our name decades ago – so it’s also trademark infringement."
John you give us all such great inspiration 😊😊😊😊
nearly all your videos have no caption available. It would be appreciated if you activate it on your end when your publish your videos so i can enjoy your videos. I am Deaf.
Concrete glue? Isn't that called mortar? And using leaf mulch makes more sense because I've heard that wood chip mulch can absorb or suck out a lot of the nitrogen from the ground which would cause plants to turn brown.
You should consider making a new intro and start filming in 4k. Dope videos by the way. 🔥🔥🫶🏻🌴🍀☘️
Thanks John for the tips you shared , Im never going to be growing any of the fruit tres you covered but I watched the video anyway because it never hurts to learn. I wonder if those tips would work on apple and pear trees since I already have them growing? Pruning 3-5 leaves after a fruit – the fruit is better closer to the main trunk, what about topping them?
