« on: February 02, 2023, 06:19:57 AM »
Definitly not Malay Apple, as the fruits are large, atleast 40 to 60 mm.

Definitely not Junglesop, as it has all the leaves growing on one side of the stem, until the plant begins to branch.

What sort of Ph does Pitomba need? And what fertiliser does one use?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / First fruits on my Pitomba
« on: May 29, 2022, 04:43:03 AM »
These are the first fruits on my Pitomba plant. Thanks to 'achetadomestica' for selling me the seeds. I find the fruits very nice and sweet when they are harvested when they are Orange in color. I am very happy for having got a nice fruit! I had tasted some Pitomba at Fairchild Botanical Gardens and had found the fruits to be mediocre. But the ones I tasted in 'Kampong', Fairchild's old home, were large and excellent.

This bulbifera tuber I had dug up yesterday and it weighed 4.756 kgs or about 10.5 lbs. After boiling, it was soft but not mushy and slightly sweet! Much better than the arial tuber.

At last the remaining fruit has softened. It is sweeter than Rollinia with a nice flavour, but very little to eat.
