pumpkin yam variety



Harvested another 20lbs of sweet potatoes on Friday the 25. It’s funny, I thought sweet potatoes only do well when it’s hot outside but not the varieties I seemed to harvest this time of year compared to the other 20lbs of sweet potatoes grown during the hotter part of the year. The Omani Pink produced the most, & I also produced some pumpkin yams, Jersey Yellow, a Myanmar Purple, & a nice bit of Molokai purple.

tree looks good. mine has that upright habit as well but less mass, im going to give it another season or two.  It seems that my soil is pretty much beach sand so it takes a little longer to get mine to that just right size no matter how hard I try. Should pay off for me once they go into production in that low nitrogen will mean less issues with jelly seed and less vegetative growth.

I believe calcium helps with jelly seed. & Good Luck with both of you with your CCandy trees! I just recently planted mine into the ground and also looking forward to tasting it soon hopefully.

I have MD2/Gold & those have serrated leaves & aren’t as sweet. These Honeyglows don’t & also have a slight mango flavor too 🤤

Only our pickering is starting to show some blooms and very few at that. Fairchild zero. Honey Kiss zero (but hopeful since later season), PPK zero, Cocunt cream zero.

Patience.

I am not the right person to be saying this considering a checked out my trees sometime twice a day looking for a sign.  Interesting thins is the Mallika and Keith that I hardly looked at now have most flowers on them.  The other trees clearly are showing sign with swollen buds, a rouge young graft that flowered etc.  It has been a strange year but it appears that things are beginning to flower so hang in there, you could be posting an update singing a different tune this time next week.

Yes still very early!!


Here’s some of the recently planted trees that are already flowering despite only being planted about a week before Thanksgiving-
(A lot of others have had swollen buds & just haven’t emerged especially for lack of rain/water.)

  (Florigon grafted w/ Rapoza)

  (Venus grafted w/ Glenn)

  (Phoenix)

  (Carrie)

   (Hatcher)

I sell for local pick up whenever I have them available... waiting on another crop to fully mature at the moment

I haven't seen any flowers on my trees.
Other than the known early varieties anyone seeing anything?

Perez Mango usually starts flowering at the first sign of cold usually at the end of October every year.. I’m hoping this year will it will set an early crop

I enjoyed Buttercream WAY more than M4. (Though I’m only going off of one tasting evaluation). Agree with SweetTart. & Fruit Punch is good... but I’ve found some more of the newer varieties that I enjoyed most this year like ButterCream, Him Sagar, & Guava.

What made u said that u rnjoyed buttercream more than m4?

Title of this post said “Flavor Bombs” & to me ButterCream fit that more than the M4.

Sure tasted like Coconut & even before I cut into it, it smelled the kitchen up with the sweet smell of Coconut... watch out CC lol

When Ordering Kauai White Sugarloaf Pineapple from Jude.... on the order page there is a spot you can leave a message before placing an order..... if you plan to grow from the crown you need to leave a note saying for them to not break the crowns cause you plan to grow them. when she goes out she will look for pineapples that are ripe and have smaller crowns on them so they will fit in the shipping box. they mite be a little bent but should still grow great


she does ship them in small boxes  to save on shipping cost i would guess

I meant to ask Jude to do this but thought it would’ve arrived intact from the videos on YouTube of others’ previous orders. No biggie as Rob stated that they’ll still grow back, lesson learned.. though I agree with Mark, if I’m paying $60 for a single pineapple I would rather they twist the top off for both to easily fit rather than cut it.
