| I got a couple of persimmon tree's that never produce a single ripe fruit, maybe crowding, not enough sun etc. These tree's are 9 years old and were purchased from edible landscaping(Different rootstock). This last spring i applied M.O.S.T(Mix of Soluble Traces) from J.R.Peters, one Tbs per 5 gls of water,soil need to be presoaked. They don't advise any stronger doses for tryal. Bingo, both tree's have now plenty of fruits hangings and turning color. |

| I have a fuyu that gets plenty of sun and has in the past dropped most of its fruit. I believe it means that the tree is under stress. For example, we have had hotter summers with less rain. Heat can cause stress, lack of water or too much water can cause stress. This year was a mild summer with decent rain. My tree is loaded and I took no extraordinary measures. |
