Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your replies. Great advice. I actually put a shade cloth a few weeks ago on the veggies,

Eggplants are giving out new growth. They were stunned for a few months and dropped 3/4 of the leaves but now seems like they are starting up again. I also have one in direct evening sunlight just as an experiment and it still is the same also giving out slow new growth. Weird huh!! Im starting out a few varieties indoors for this month and will transplant end of Sept outdoors.

i had success with Avocados in the past indoors but took them out in the wrong time during summer and fried them up lol. So im starting 2 new seeds indoors in water and hoping they will shoot out some roots by next month to transplant outdoors.

As for my peppers. I cropped a few leaves off hoping that this encourage them to give out new leaves during this period. keeping them in the shade as well the entire time which gives them a bit of light. Im also trying to germinate some needs now to give me a kick start in Oct to transplant them outside.

I threw a few dragon fruit seeds in potting soil and kept them under a light in my kitchen they just sprouted 2 weeks ago so that will also be an experiment as i never saw dragon fruit being sold in the farmers market locally. Always imported.

Thanks a lot guys.

One more questions. Does anyone have any experience in air layering. I'm going to try to air layer my existing mango and see what happens Smiling . Maybe this is the wrong discussion but if anyone has experience in airlayering I can use that Smiling

Thanks again
