Obie,
We have at least 20 coco trees (several varieties, including Samoan, judging from how they look) on our property. I did not plant any of them and we have been here 7 years. I would guess the cocos are at least ten years old, probably more. None of them produce. I occasionally fertilize them with 15-15-15 or coconut/palm. Any advice? A friend said to scatter salt around them.
By the way, other palms on our property produce nuts--Royal Palms for the first time this year.
Any advice? I love coconut water.
