I noticed that you picked Rocha on August 10. Do you refrigerate them prior to ripening? I’ve read that they are used as a winter pear but wonder if they will ripen earlier to good quality. I have a nice tree but it had a significant fire blight strike in 2022. I have a much smaller tree now!
You have a lot of varieties that I know nothing about.
Hi. This summer was very dry and hot. We got 7 heat waves and a huge drought. All fruits matured very early. Usually rocha pear is picked on beginning of September. You can pick them more green and conserve them on cold or let them mature to eat on that time.
Luis are you looking for these varieties of pears??
Hi. Im not looking for them, i will have this varieties to graft.
Finaly i open my Deveci pear and it was a great surprize. It was a good juicy and sweet pice of fruit despite i pick her too early and stayed all this months on fruit bowl maturing.
It’s at the same stage as my ‘Hood’.
That one i dont have and dont know…
Luis- Your pears are beautiful. You will love Magness when it finally fruits- one of the best. Consider adding Harvest Queen and Gorham, if you can find them. They are excellent, too.
Thanks a lot Matt! I will look for them…
