OTHER: This plant is used for the manufacture of organic diesel fuel, insecticides, anti fungal agents and soaps. If you wish to make your own insecticide/fungicide with this plant, be careful of the nuts. All parts of plant are poisonous if ingested, so be very cautious about human (or animal) consumption. First, dry the nuts completely. Second, crush the nuts to a fine powder. Third, soak nut powder in petroleum ether until the ether is evaporated. The residue is your insecticide. Use it sparingly, about 1 Tbsp/Gal. As the Physic Nut Tree becomes more popular as a source for bio-diesel production, the market will likely expand for this seed. It grows very easily from seed and sets seed every time it blooms. Butterflies just love it and joyfully pollinate it. These tree do grow quickly. Mine was around 2 feet tall when I planted it and in its second year it has grown to about 15 ft.
