Sow: Jackfruit

EcoAction, sow

Here at Loblolly Park is where jackfruit seeds were sown.

leela says:

It’s worth checking back later, and even bringing some biochar compost for future sows!

Conrad’s Experiment

Experiment, Grow Tips, permaculture, Plant Experiment, sow

Avocados and peaches started in a dead tree somewhere on the Russian River.

Conrad:

“Shade is critical for young feral trees. Especially shade that blocks the afternoon sun. And LOTS of mulch. Finding little micro basins and canyons that are sunken (closer to the water table). All this helps. Your heart will guide you best.”

Mango Sow

Mango, sow

The mango I bought from the Shattuck Market was fairly flavorless, with a slight funky tilt, so I decided to plant it with the flesh.
