] Hello,
Let me start of by saying that I am mainly interested in hearing people's personal experiences with growing fruit on or very near my elevation. I am trying to conduct some research before I try and fail miserably to create a fruit orchard to sustain myself and my family. I understand that much better land is located else where but I do not have that option because this is what I have and I don't want to sell it. I currently own three acres off of Omega in the fern forest community.
I have read that coconuts, mango, lychee do not produce so well in my elevation or do not produce at all. Anyone else with success or failure stories? Locals have told me that Banana's, pineapple, Papaya, Lilikoi and most citrus all do fine at this elevation. That's a pretty good start! I would love to hear any input as well. Thank you!
