Temperate Fruit Discussion / Shanxi Li vs Li jujube
« on: January 07, 2018, 10:09:25 PM »
I wonder if they are different variety or just simply Li? I have Sherwood and sugar cane and think about to add a few more into my collection? I like sweet taste . Is  Shanxi Li. sweeter than Li? Do you know what variety is usually sold in the super market? I don't like those since they are spongy and tasteless.
What about GA 866? Does it produce A lot of fruits and taste sweet?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Is jujube supposed to send out new leaves this season?
« on: November 18, 2017, 11:10:45 PM »
Today I saw My sugarcane jujube suddenly sent out new leaves . I wonder if this is normal or it is a result of giving it compost tea from  SD Hydroponics store? I watered the tea last Sunday and go to the store to get free compost tea to water again this afternoon.
Has anyone used this kind of tea before ? How often should I use it?
