Re: Asimina Triloba (Paw Paw)
Hey, people! I just wanted to post some update pictures of the Pawpaw tree that had been struggling.. I removed the shade cloth to see how the tree would do in full sun.. so far the tree is doing very well! The shoots that were growing slowly sped up and are now 4-6 inches of new growth! I used the organic jobes acid loving formula.. that was like 3-4 weeks ago though.. mainly I used for the past 4 weeks every week I put seaweed and fish fertilizer down on the tree and I always water it really well.. try to keep the soil moist.. I just wanted to post this update because there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of information on Pawpaws so any way this could help someone with their own pawpaws I hope it does.. I guess the main problem was that the tree needed fertilizer and the soil needed to be enriched and the ph needed to be closer to acidic soil.. Wish you guys luck with whatever you're growing!

Paw Paw- The Strongest Anti-Cancer Plant? As if those aren’t enough, Paw Paw bark may be of the strongest anti-cancer substances out there, sharing similar traits to the now-famous, exotic South American Graviola tree leaves and twigs (the tree that produces the Soursop fruit). In fact, a large-scale Purdue University study found that it had the strongest anti-cancer abilities of any such fruit/plant on the North and South American continents, even more than soursop/graviola in vitro. Two studies published in 1997 by a Purdue University researcher Dr. Jerry McLaughlin, who has published more than 330 scientific papers and secured several patents for his work, and a doctoral student, and found that compounds in the bark of the tree showed preliminary success in fighting against drug-resistant cancers. “The Paw Paw compounds are not only effective in killing tumors that have proven resistant to anti-cancer agents, but they also seem to have a special affinity for such resistant cells,” an article on the Purdue News website noted. Over 40 anti-cancer compounds were found in Paw Paw bark, although McLaughlin noted that cancer cells are very complex and difficult to kill in humans. A follow-up study was undertaken, but not enough has been done as of yet to determine the ultimate effects in humans. This “Tropical” Midwestern Fruit is the Strongest Against Cancer Cells on Two Continents, Study Says | AltHealthWorks.com

Re: Asimina Triloba (Paw Paw)
Very nice ! Are they all producing fruit? Have you ever seen cracking of the graft on your paw paw trees? I purchased ksu Atwood pawpaw and I noticed this year that the base of the tree the baby trunk where the tree was grafted onto the other seedling.. there is a crack that started to emerge and the wood is peeling back leaving a dark brown exposed area. It looks as though the tree is sealing off the wood and healing but I was concerned that the tree was stressed and that the trunk was cracking.. I didn't know what it was.. apparently this is normal at the graft union or that is what I was told by ksu pawpaw research Facebook page.. the tree is growing well despite the initial start in the season where it was looking sick but now that I saw that cracking trunk I was like "What the hell is this?!" lol

Re: Asimina Triloba (Paw Paw)
I'm very very enthusiastic about this fruit tree and the variability on flavour regarding this fruit. I'm shure that leaves and bark will be used on industry to make insecticids and anti-cancer drugs. Another thing i see that will expand is the comercialization of freezed pulp, ice cream, jams, alcoolic beverages like paw paw beer... The possibilities of this tree is amazing!

Re: Asimina Triloba (Paw Paw)
Hey Eric,
Congrats your paw paws are great. Mine have been pushing along as well but the japanese beetles have been mowing them pretty hard. I mist them with neem oil every few days to keep them away. Luis, How tall was your paw paw when it first flowered? Mine are over half a meter tall (2'). Thanks, Erik G |

Re: Asimina Triloba (Paw Paw)
I don't have this tree but I think that is one of the largest fruits for Peterson Pawpaw trees.. I think the average fruit is 235/g fruit and that's average so that's pretty amazing for a fruit to be so large lol
