Is that any way to talk about one of your children?? Actually, I meant to type Vegas Lucky, It sounds like Vegas Spicy could be a good one to try in my climate, as it produced high-quality during the cooler season for you. By the time jujubes are ripening here, weāre lucky to hit 75F, instead of the 110F you get.
I had a couple Vegas Booty on my surviving graft, but I think they fell off. But the good news is that the graft grew very well and is fairly high up in the tree (GA866), so Iām pretty hopeful for next year. I may cut part of it back a bit (itās competing for space with Dae Sol Jo), so I can probably also put it in another site.
Of course you are! Btw, booty is a relatively big and dense juju so extremely encouraging to see it show signs of prospering in your area. Hopefully fruit
matures well enough before getting caught by cold weather
definitely not my children. Maybe my exes, just kidding.
as for spicy, i have lost track of whom Iāve sent what, so will be sending that too
yeah, it can be a problem with seedlings. Even vegas booty which is no longer so thorny now as an older specimen, it used to be quite prickly as a youngster. Had to snip off the spines once they hardened
My Sweet Tart from @castanea had one fruit this year. Iāve been watching it and a couple of days ago it was creamy but had not started to get brown. Weāve had storms over the last few days. When I looked today the fruit was on the ground and one side was slightly brownā¦I picked it up excitedly and it was very, very squishy!! Of course I had to taste it but I have to admit it wasnāt what I would consider edible. Fermented and bitterā¦ Iām guessing it split and the rain caused it to spoil. (We had enough rain that it had probably been lying in water.) Okayā¦there is next yearā¦ Iām am so glad that it has grown this year and fruited.
mine likewise struggled. Fruits got sunburnt after several days of intense summer heat, and the potted condition didnāt help, of course. It still has some fruitlets on its second crop so looking forward to try it later this year.
Yes i did. I got scionwood from my neighbor. But he didnāt Know its name neither. BTW I want to buy tiger tooth and R4T3 jujube. Anyone knows where i can get them please help. Thanks in advance
fruit-split isnāt just a convenient point of access for voracious beaks and bills
in relatively humid areas(outside of vegas), microbial/fungal intrusion is likely.
i donāt get that problem with our xu zhou fruits on trees(the dry air-- plus the high-sugar content of jujus tend to be antimicrobial as a result of high-gradient conditions), but as soon as these split and cracked fruits fall off the trees on to an irrigation area, they quickly turn into the same rotten fruits just like yoursā¦
