Thanks Arvind for the input! All of my Pometias have been blackening that way and eventually died.May I ask what is your annual temperature and soil's ph?
Thanks Arvind!Your climate is very similar to mine. Maybe some disease or ph and soil type took part in this.
well it seemed to grow on any soil here as long as it is not waterlogged
where did you got the seeds from and what color is the fruit? Mine is the purple colored variety with hard shell

Mine is the purple colored variety with hard shellYour tree is very nice and healthy! I've expected my Pometia to be like that but unfortunately they've been sick.Besides, I got seeds from Han Sen (Malaysia same as you). It is also purple, hard-shell variety.
I also bought the varieties from Han Sen.There are about 6 other varieties that i know .Among them are the green colored with hard shell,green colored with thin shell,yellow colored shell,yellow with reddish tinge,red colored,green with reddish tinge and brown colored shell

After successfully treating my current Pometia, I'll try some more varieties as you listed.Btw, in your pics of Pometia, the landscape is awesome! Is that your orchard?
No not my orchard.its at the back of my house.the piece of land opposite the stream lined with coconuts belong to someone else
if you want to purchase the other varieties try searching facebook for someone by the name of Helmi Matoa and Helmi Hussein Tabano.He is from Indonesia Riau province and he exports the fruit to malaysia
