Ron Finley plants vegetable gardens in South Central LA -- in abandoned lots, traffic medians, along the curbs. Why? For fun, for defiance, for beauty and to offer some alternative to fast food in a community where "the drive-thrus are killing more people than the drive-bys."

I planted a peach tree in my yard a few years ago.... My grandmother used to have a peach tree and it was the neatest thing - you could just go and pluck a peach from it any time you wanted. No peaches yet, but I'm guessing it will take a few more years.

by anytime you wanted you mean May through August right? Peaches can be a tricky tree to grow. Depending on how far along it was when you planted it, it could be up to 5 years before you see any fruit. Even then, the first couple of years are gonna have a very low yield.

I would suggest feeding the tree if you havn't done it already. People often overlook this with fruit trees and usually just let them go on their own. It makes a huge difference for the health of the tree.

I had strain of grape vines that took 7 years to produce fruit. They must have heard me swearing at them the 7th year saying if they didn't produce I was going to rip them out of the ground.

PaperstreetWinston · 05-09-2014, 01:50 PM

I got jackfruits and mangoes, jackfruits are on their 4th year of fruiting, mangoes may take a couple more years.

Seth Manson · 05-09-2014, 02:29 PM

If you want a good yield (or any yield at all) from your fruit trees, you need neighbors with the same trees, or add two more trees. You really need cross-pollination going on or you dont get fruit.

ilnjscb · 05-09-2014, 08:31 PM

yup I watched it but it might be a pretty long commute from Indiana to South LA (Central) with my shovel..

good video though.. A lot of my family have gardens here in Indiana. A few of my uncles use to be farmers but have retired

Spaghetti squash if it doesn't grow on trees

My garden is going to be shit this year due to the weather and storm destruction and cold-as-fuck temps. I lost all my strawberries and my northern kiwis. My fig tree is done, I tried to create a microclimate for it and it had survived and thrived about 7 yrs. OTOH my blueberry bushes are doing great. Can never beat the birds to the cherries. Apple trees are in full blossom and look good, so I'll get my apples (Roma), use them for baking. Lost a nectarine tree, one still up, need to buy another pollinator. Plenty of mint for tea. Container garden the tomatoes and peppers and kitchen herbs. I could have an in ground veggie garden but I'd do battle with the crows and furry varmints over seeds and greens and whatever was on the vine. So I keep the containers on my deck and they leave the stuff alone, smells too much like hoomans I guess.

For about 5 years when I was a kid I lived in a house we rented that had a ton of walnut trees. The owners of the house told us we could keep the walnuts or do whatever we wanted with them or just have them come take them away.

Every year my mom would have us out there collecting them. We would shell and can some to have throughout the year and she would sell the rest to people she worked with. There were enough trees that we had walnuts for a year and my mom would make a few hundred dollars selling them.
