Backyard Tropical Food Forest in Northern California
Last year I transformed my backyard into a subtropical food forest where I'm now growing hundreds of of edible plants including tropical and subtropical fruits that don't normally grow in my zone (9b). I'll take you on a tour of my densely planted backyard jungle in this first video on my new series, to show you that it's possible to grow tropical plants in non tropical climates. In future videos I'll show you exactly how I created this food forest and everything I'm doing to maintain it through the years.

    What if your tree was bought from a big box store, planted during july, and doesnt have 3 to 4 nice scaffold branching until shoulder height? Can you just cut the trunk at the desired height and itll regrow appropriately? Im in PA, zone 6. Thanks for the input for a first timer.

    I finally found someone in California actually taking advantage of their back yard. I just don’t get the purpose of having grass. It’s almost useless and wasteful. Edible trees and plants are much more beneficial. For me watching something grow (not grass) and taking care of it is so much enjoyable and comforting. Eating the results of your labor is even more satisfied that hard to explain.

    I really need my soil tested, I have spent HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS on grass seed only to have it germinate, grow about 2 inches and then completely die in about 4-6 weeks from start to finish. I am literally throwing money away. I need help.

    Not only apples, some North American begonias can pollinate apples, the apple family is bigger than you know, and there are many other species that can cross with apples, so I guess California should have other members from the apple family.

    What did you paint this stock tank with? Been looking at a few options, but cant find anything that adheres to galvanized too well. Saw some etching suggestions with vinegar + an abrasive to prep, but still chips and peels in the sun.

    this ties in with what I have read, that summer pruning puts a tree 'on a diet' to reduce vigour. Should the same principles be followed for hazelnut trees?

    I have 12 tomato plants and 5 tree starts in growbags which I set in dishpans with 3" water to bottom water by wicking. NOW I have mosquitos and I am tired of watering twice a day. The tomatoes are sucking up 1qt of water per day. SO I just put it all on DRIP. It will water @ 3am when all is cool and the plants have a couple of hours to soak up all the moisture before the blazing hot sun comes up to evap it all. !

    For anyone interested in free or very cheap soil testing, look for your local extension office. Most states offer free soil testing, just take samples and drop them off at the extension office and you’ll get accurate results in a weekday or two

    Wish i was is zone 9b at least, I'm in 9a in a rural area so we get so cold and i would love to grow guavas and papayas but they don't make it. People in track home communities can, cuz all the concrete keeps it warmer at night, as i have seen guavas in those places.

    Firstly, the chocolate pudding fruit does not taste remotely like chocolate or pudding. Secondly, I don't think you understand nitrogen fixation, a process which occurs in the soil and not through the air.
