Well, it's a mix of Biogold, Hanagokoro and fish emulsion.
Basacote, just a sprinkle.
A lightly diluted kelp emulsion sprayed every month...
And the Jaboticaba has to change clothes, as the old ones don't fit in its new fattened trunk.
First image from three months ago, trunk images from today.
Now we wait for the summer, our rainy season.

Such a cool tree. We saw some really big ones at the Missouri Botanical garden last winter, they were pretty amazing.

Thanks @Carol 83 , they are really awesome.
Being natives here, we see them on the streets and public parks, everywhere. They like wet, really wet soil, lots of organics in the mix and... Ferts. Lots of food.

Surely it will form new bark, right? I have no experience with the species.
 
This is really cool! Thank you for sharing.
Do you mind sharing some caring tips too? Like when to repot, lowest temp, etc.?
