Thornless Blackberry Bush - red berries won't ripen...WHY? =(
Comments (3)The new canes cannot be affected until they fruit next year and a new generation of mites attack. Try some of the control measures at UC Davis linked above or other measures to lessen your mite population. Of course there could be mites already hiding out on the new canes; nothing for that until they emerge to do their duty next year. Certain beneficial insects can eat mites....See MoreFigs won't ripen...
Comments (5)This is how Violette de Bordeaux was performing in Phoenix Arizona,By Grower :Frozen Joe,described on the forum "Figs4fun. As you can see your tree is not near like his. It is young now but if next year it keep making dry inedible fruits ,discard it,it must be a seedling. For now find out PH value in soil and apply powder limestone if acidic,to bring it to 7 ,neutral. Violette de Bordeaux - This tree was an aggressive grower. It produced a dozen brebas. Their quality was from good to excellent. Medium size. Good texture. Fruit rating 9. It produced many dozens of main crop figs. Their quality was from poor to excellent. Medium size. Poor to good texture. Fruit rating 8. The most productive in my collection; it was the best fig this year in the spring and the fall....See MoreFigs won't ripen
Comments (0)I have 2 fig trees in my yard, a 3 year old brown turkey and a 2 year old celeste. Both have experienced good growth since planting and appear to be very healthy. Last year and this year both trees were loaded with figs and I did get a few ripe figs from each tree. But most of the figs on both trees remained a little small, green and hard and never did ripen. These trees are in the same area that I had another celeste fig tree in a few years ago and that tree always produced large quantities of ripe figs. I have no idea what the problem is and hope someone has some ideas....See MoreBrogdon Avocado Ripening
Comments (16)Thank you Felix, the chirimoya is one of the tastiest fruits. You have a good chance with the seeds having the greenhouse. I do have a lot of plants from warmer places, when it gets cold I moved them to the porch. My father used to make a dessert for me made of "babaco", mountain papaya. Maybe I will try to grow that one too in the future. And about the mora, I really don't know, because we always had it wild in the house. It is in the same family of blackberries, so I would think it fruits in a year or two. We will see, I have other plants as an experiment too. I will let you know. Silvia...See Moreserge94501
