why jujube Li best for first jujube?
Comments (20)I'm new to this forum. I didn't know Sam Powers' handle. Sunday I was out at the Harris County Master Gardeners orchard looking at the pears and jujubes, checking for budbreak. George McAfee showed up and told me the bad news. I have not confirmed it but they both usually go to the Fruit Study Group meetings. I missed the last three. George grafted all of the original pears and citrus at the orchard and I think Sam did the jujubes. Sam did some later ones I know. When I did not see him or his wife Ginger at the Galveston County Citrus Show I new it was a bad sign. He gave me a Sihong. He helped so many people with valuable tips on what to do, when, and how. He sold bundles of rare jujube and persimmon budwood at the spring grafting clinic for almost nothing. He really liked helping people get on track starting their own orchard. I could not count the times someone asked some "expert" a question and they said, "you need to talk to Sam about that"....See MoreLI Jujube Question
Comments (2)I have just found your post. I have 2 Li jujube planted last year. I have the same problem like you had. The fruits are soft and sponge. I wonder if you did find out the solution ?. I am living in Southern California Inland. It is hot in the summer, around 97 degree. May be too sunny?...See MoreLi Jujube Formed Fruit Half Drying & Falling
Comments (5)I agree with houston, overwater. I had the same problem, cut back the water drastically, and the fruit drops and brownouts were a lot less....See MoreI am so confused about when jujubes are ripe to eat.
Comments (8)Sometimes my 'Li' doesn't get very brown and sometimes it does, it might be due to weather. I would add that I bought my tree from a nursery that has a very large tree that is obviously much older than my tree. His tree has very flavorful fruit whereas mine is kind of mild so maybe the fruit flavor changes for the better as the trees mature....See Morehoosierquilt USDA 10A Sunset 23 Vista CA
