Hey George,
I second Kona's request. I have a few seedlings and I would like to graft on 1-2 varieties on them. I am jakfruit newbie, I had some from our local international market and really enjoyed it! Had no idea what cultivar it was.
But I would like to know which ones you really like (a top 5 list)
And to make it a little more focused: If you had to start over and you had to choose the two varieties you can't live without, which ones are they?
Thanks!
I'm not George but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. ..
Personally, I dont recommend grafting multiple varieties onto one tree. With jackfruit, since you have separate male znd female "flowers" and its cruical to have male flowers at the same time as female, grafting two different varieties on the same tree diminishes the chances for full and proper pollination as different varieties can tend to have different flowering times. In addition, if they did flower at the same time you could run the risk of cross pollination which for a backyard grower looking to get specific fruit, not a good thing.
With that geing said, I would go with Red Morning, Excalibur Red, Bangkok Lemon, Crunchy Lemon and Mai 3.
