Planting a peach tree and fruit tree considerations

[creekdigger]

damn you're dangerous with that fertilizer brother! just kidding! thank you for an honest and real video!

[TheEndeavoringFamily]

You can also grow citrus in your house ( I found that out recently) You just have to upgrade the container as it grows. Lemons are helpful in the kitchen as well as for cleaning!

i've never eaten a peach in my life i wonder how it tastes like... but i do eat pears and apples regularly.

[YoungShrill]

I have a verity if trees I need to know what to fertalize each one for Ga any help out there

[HappyBerryCrochet]

I've had an apple tree in a pot for about 4 years, it was small but gave me two pies each year, I planted it out at last and got zero apples! It's too happy now lol perhaps next year :)

[whattheduce57]

@pburgsk8rs ahaha i thought the same its a mountain lion

[maicongphuc]

i love peaches!

[Killinemdead1]

@maicongphuc me too

[notebookplayer]

very nice, I pick my own fruit off of wild trees and can them in a pressure canner

[SgtSnausages]

Learn how to properly prune, train, and shape those trees. To get the best production for the most number of years, you've just gotta put in a little work every year. Less than 10-12 minutes per tree each year. Doesn't take long to learn.

[shishiromura]

You should get organic fertilizer so that way it doesn't ruin the land.

[malayait]

i think this distance is toooo much..

there should be 15 feet in each tree.... i have planted this year and we are planning for the place between them, i planed for the vegitable in between space....

[malayait]

i have planted about 515 trees this year....

there is a great fun in planting young trees.....

woooo but i forgot peache trees , which i will plant next year...

[romnsch13]

Should have considered the drip line radius of the pine when choosing peach location...., also resultant ph considerations not to mention shading etc.

[woodsracing]

I noticed the Pine trees in the area around some of your trees, Ive never had good luck with fruit around the pines. Maybe its the acid from the leaves but I was wondering if you had any trouble from that ?

[romnsch13]

@woodsracing I was just posting in response to that very concern myself....., very good observation on your part. PS did this guy just cite scurvey as a reason to plant plums? HA HA! Hes too bossy too!

[attilaclark]

USe compost , it also acts as a buffer as the soil and potting ph may differ.

[arkansastrash320]

Hi I don't know what certain kinda plum tree you have?But the kind we have man they will self propagate we have little plum trees coming up all the time so easy to grow more without ever spending a dime.If i were you i mite be looking for that.Also when you peach trees or any fruit trees need pruning just save some put the ends in rooting powder plant in good potting soil in 6to 8 weeks it will be rooted and you have another fruit tree for free .To me getting something for free is everthing !!

[spitoncat]

I'm out of here. If you don't know how not to kill the tree maybe you shouldn't be offering advice.

[MicrowavedTofu]

after planting the tree, when will it start to produce edible fruit? how many years?

[malayait]

@MicrowavedTofu depend upon the size of plant , which plant, and the seasons of the region..

generally plants are of 4,3 feet to sale in nursaries.. if u have 4 seasont in the region it will take 2,3 years to produce full fruits, before this it will produce but in small amount..

[arkansastrash320]

Hi years ago we had a beautifull elberta peach tree and yes they are heavy producers!We cut it down over being furstrated with squirrels and no joke they are a bad problem with tomatoes fruts and such.Any ideals of how to keep them away from the new peach tree i am going to plant this spring?Oh what variety of peach are your trees and other fruits?

[donttakefakecredit]

******I HATE THE COMMERCIALS IN THE BEGINNING OF EVER VIDEO*****

[visualsilence]

triple 10!

[ctwright82]

I recently planted 16 fruit trees in my backyard. With an installed drip irrigation. Fruit trees produce so much for the amount of work you put into them.

[Xbashini]

thank you!!!!!

[buckstarchaser]

I recently read a DNR publication stating that fruit trees shouldn't be fertilized because it reduces their defenses against disease. I'm interested how these new trees are doing now. Are they doing well? or was the gov publication perhaps faulty?

[goafterherinred]

Yes Giant648 you are right, you are the master and I am the student. And after thinking about this, any animal that tries to come around can be meat on the table especially deer. And you are right there is lots of natural fetilizer that can be used once the trees are established.

[flamingangel999]

@goafterherinred If you have woods, worm castings are found under many trees and in creek beds. They are easy to dig up and trans port to your fruit treesor gardens. I operate a biodynamic farm. I use both chemical and organic fertilizer methods. I use Gardens Alive fertilizer on my gardens and fruit trees. I have carrots onions etc. growwing wild. Also mushrooms and berries. I have enough food growing wild on my property to sustain 5-10 people indefinetly.

[goafterherinred]

You have a very good point dealing with planting fruit trees. Yes you only plant them once, but you still have to fertlize them, water them and spray them for bugs. What do you do about "Critters" that want to eat your fruit before it is ripe. Do you have a problem with deer wanting the eat the bark of the tree?

You have a very good point in planting fruit bearing trees. If it does get to a point that you need the fruit for survival then you can always dehydrate if you run out of canning jars.

[giant648]

@goafterherinred if you think about it fruits landing on the ground would fertilize the tree. a stream or pond or water source would work perfectly for watering it. on the bugs getting on it they have fruit trees that they graphted two heirlooms and made one tree to be bug resistant.

[sariwat1]

if the 4 trees keep producing fruit, I would assume you would get quite alot of seeds that can be planted yielding you 30-50 trees? I don't know much about this.

[eddWyrd]

@sariwat1 Most varieties of trees don't reproduce true from seed. Apples, for instance, rarely produce a usable tree from seed. You can graft a branch to a rootstock and in that way make a clone. I have rooted figs from cut branches with good success, but most trees are too weak to grow a good root system. If you look at a tree in the nursery you will see a knob or a bump near the base where the tree was grafted to a rootstock. The rootstock also determines how large the tree will grow.

[sariwat1]

@eddWyrd how do they reproduce in the wild without human intervention?

[eddWyrd]

@sariwat1 You can plant a peach tree like this and maybe get an edible fruit, but it isn't going to be like the tree or fruit you started with. There's really no telling how it will turn out. If you took two pits from the same hybrid tree you would get two different kinds of peaches. Wild fruit trees can give a nice fruit, but it will often be small and not as good in some ways to the hybrid varieties. Hybrids can make stronger plants than the parents - it's called 'heterosis'.

[ChrisGilliam39]

I planted a peach tree, two pear trees, one apple tree, and one fig tree last year. This year I've planted three blueberry bushes, and an apple tree. I plan to add at least three more fruit trees in the coming weeks. Fruit trees are a good investment.

[brentpieczynski]

@kenny1979 Those people do consider it a duty to conform to traditions so I did move, to Alaska.

[Necrowitch]

you might want to get a leafy green that lasts years of growing... like tree kale and egyptian spinach. o_o you could also grow some purslane as it has omega 3 fatty acids that are important for brain function.

as for fertilizer... you can put compost around your trees... if your lazy.. you can just throw what you were meaning to compost right under the tree... I only know some of this stuff because i like looking into permaculture which is the perfect growing survival method for disasters.

[finajet]

its too weak sun and too cold here in north europe for peach trees. its tasty tho

[cowboybob3000]

i need to upload a video comparing trees with grass up to their trunks and tress with a 3' mulch ring. the difference of a mulch ring IS everything! grass sucks up most rain water before it ever makes it to the roots. the vid i have is a university study. after you plant your trees you should trickle a waterhose to them let it trickle ( or more) for several hours at the least... REMEMBER- GRASS IS BAD FOR TREES!

[stfuBUDDY]

lol too bad all of us will most likely die before we can ever see the end of the world catastrophe

[ArashiNage]

You planted that peach tree three years ago? Trees take a long time to grow, I better get planting!

[37361811]

I will trade my rice and beans for fruit and veggies!!

[wynboniface]

We're planting plums.

[Grimmvolvo]

That pine is gonna kill that peach tree.

[birdhunter67]

Do you that pine? He looks bad to me ;0)

[nygrappler1]

How much do those trees cost?

[painsey]

nice quad

[painsey]

your a serial tree murderer lol good video yet again cya. peace and beer

[villel80]

I once planted a mandarin seed and now the tree is over a meter tall. It hasn't flowered yet, though.

[weiliiiiiii]

@Revolutionisnow1, I totally agree, compost is the way to go. Also miracle grow makes an organic soil now, use 50% organic soil and 50% mushroom compost for incredibly awesome tasting veggies and fruits.

You should not add miracle grow fertilizer to the miracle grow soil since you can over fertilize them (burn them), the soil already has fertilizer in it so wait 3-4 months to add fertilizer. Also whats the point of adding organic soil with chemical fertilizer...It defeats the purpose.

[tylertyler82]

You should try a worm composting bin as a way to dispose of your food scraps and also create the best organic fertilizer, way better than that Miracle Gro stuff.

[polarbeach]

peaches come in a can ... they were put there by the man.... in a factory down south.

[crazy650c]

Make sure you are at least 25 feet away from any pine trees (evergreens). The roots of them give off an enzyme that kills young fruit trees. I don't think it was the fertilizer that killed the tree. I think it was too close to a pine tree or it's roots judging by the location in your video.

[2024JayZ]

How much land do yall own that you're planting on?

[SSanf]

Yep!! I have planted 7 fruit trees. Last year I got 90 HUGE peaches of a young tree. Dont forget to plant raspberries somewhere. Get the kind that produce berries both spring and fall. I get gallons of food from my raspberry bushes. Once you get it established, rhubarb comes back every year and is good, too. It can substitute in many dishes where you want a tart flavoring. Any kind of nuts is great for protein and oil so dont forget a few nut trees or bushes. Canning requires sugar. Dehydrate!

[romnsch13]

@SSanf Are you in the bay area?

[molemanlivesagain]

boy do i wish i had enough money to own land...

[dsarti1]

I see the prob... Shoud have used mirical grow starter mixed in water and nort sprinkle any fertlizer untill tree started growing and not much untill 2nd year, 1st year you want root growth too much furterlizer inhibits good root growth

[Revolutionisnow1]

Cool,allthough if you want great fertilzer that won't kill your trees I would suggest composting, no cost but time and the best no chemical fertilzer you can get! As for gardens not coming back every year, you should look at some permaculture videos, it is all about sustainable living and gardening, a garen planted right will come back or re-seed itself. Great Job

[shampoovta]

Moving To The Country, Gonna Eat Me A Lot Of Peaches"

good song.

cool vid.

[vagitoe]

Damn it now it is stuck in my head!

"Millions of peaches, peaches for me..."

[adams0960]

Did not expect a Presidents ref. Awesome!

[RCvolunteer1978]

You have to go with the tree that will grow in your area Kevin here in Florida Orange mango and Papya trees grown will inmy area but thinking of getting two Apples to see if they will produce

[SimplyIncredulous]

Check your local nursery - there are some varieties of pear and apple good in zones 9 and maybe even 10. I think Asian Pears may work too.

Don't forget Banana Trees and Pineapple Plants!

[thegreatfbi]

all I hear is an open mouth breather

[IKLIPTIC]

@thegreatfbi yeah I hear the same thing lol, like a old fat man who has been walking up some stairs.

[FlyFishingGuru727]

Can you plant peach trees in Northern Minnesota?

[chris35128]

@FlyFishingGuru727

I Think So.

[demondough]

@FlyFishingGuru727 yep
