Tropical Fruit Discussion / why would a full size avocado wrinkle on tree?
« on: March 21, 2023, 09:51:00 AM »
Hi, I found a fully grown avocado that was wrinkling or more like shriveling on the tree (waiting to see how it develops off the tree but I'm not expecting much). Only one so far - why would that happen? On the same tree I'm picking avocados that come off leaving their stem behind, already softening slightly (not softening so much as unhardening), that then when they mature off the tree wrinkle a tiny bit around the stem end. Quality of the fruit is excellent though, creamy and not rubbery at all. Any ideas as to what's going on?
