Peach Tree Grown From Seed - First Harvest!

Peach Tree Grown From Seed - First Harvest! In this video, I'll be harvesting and taste testing the very first peaches on my Peach Tree that I started from seed! I'm super excited because it is now month 59 (almost 5 years since I seed started the seeds from store bought peaches. I have had to battle the plum curculio, squirrels, rabbits and birds during this season so while the harvest is minimal (and with damaged fruit) the main objective here was to see how they tasted and if the tree would produce edible, delicious peaches at all. Finally, it took FOREVER for the peaches to ripen. If I was able to leave them on the tree, they would have been ripe around the first week of September versus being ripe in June/July, like my other peach trees (Harvester Peach and Loring Peach). Background to the Peach Trees from Seeds: I purchased a few peaches from the store and decided to try my luck at growing the peach seeds into peach trees. I used the wet paper towel and ziploc bag method to start germination. I started the peach seeds on 10/2/16). It took about 4 weeks to get these two seeds to sprout and they've been in the cups for about another 5 weeks. I apologize for not filming it from the start. The central leaders on these saplings didn't look good so I was hesitant to even do the series but I topped them to promote some side shoots and they really took off! I hope you'll enjoy this series.
