Cool, Cassio, congrats. In your opinion, what is the best jaboticaba species to eat? how many varieties did you ate?

Marcos, I like to much of the Jaboticaba Coroada, and also of that jabo in my first post, which I don´t know the name, but appears to be "de cabinho" (you can see them in the photo. Fruits were harvested before), but I´m unsure if is "de cabinho" or not. The white jabo is very sweet, while the skin (can be eaten) is a bit sour, but not that much. The fruits are small, but the seeds too.

I ate the pohema (or paulista) too, but she isn´t so good.

Never tasted the blue, and other vars.

ok, about the skin: i never ate the skin (tasted coronata and some unknown vars), too acid and bitter

Yeah, all of them has skin acid and bitter (except that white var), but you can make juice and liquor with them

xunxun88: congrats!

I'm unsure of the type of Jabo this is but it is fruiting for the first time now.

Looks like a Tabby...still a year away from fruiting.

you've got a Gremlin (Grimal) multiplying, that's what happens when you put water on them! just don't fertilize after midnight!

My Red jabo has begun flowering for the first time

. Bought it as a small 3 gal early this year (Feb). It's barely 3 ft tall in a 15gal pot- but bushy and healthy. Doing well in indirect sunlight.

Thanks! What's the flower to feast time on these usually?

FlyingFoxFruits · « **Reply #1114 on:** December 08, 2015, 05:11:32 PM »

seems like 40 days? maybe sooner during the warmer months??

but during winter months it can take longer I'm sure.

If we get dry chilly air that comes through, protect the tree from temps below 40F if possible....just using a frost cloth and watering heavily before a chilly night can make a big difference...

just remember, dry, cold, wind is your enemy

Hi Dom,

Roughly how old is your Grimal ?

Joshua · « **Reply #1116 on:** December 12, 2015, 06:14:29 AM »

i had my first try of a large leaf (grimal)variety today.i was very excited they are bigger yes.they have a slightly different flovour with a touch more sweetnes.the skin is way thicker and more bitter/acid than the small leaf (sabara) and has fine hairs on the ski which is a bit stange initially.i must say i like them alot but i think both varieties have their unique attributes. I do enjoy eating skin seed and all with the sabara and you can't do that with the grimal unless your very Keen.check my vid tch "jaboticaba large leaf large fruit beautiful grimal" on YouTub
https://youtu.be/01hPxBGq75k had my first try of a large leaf variety today

Why do they upload sideways ??

shah8 · « **Reply #1118 on:** December 12, 2015, 01:46:19 PM »

you're picking those a little too early. That skin needs to be dull and more matte.

nice pics look like some grimals on the left, and sabara on the right.

definitely wait as long as possible to pick Grimal, if they are purple but still firm when squeezed, they still need to stay on the tree...I like them to get quite soft before picking.

as for pictures being sideways, I had the same problem.

the only way I could fix it, was by opening the file once i've downloaded it onto my computer...then you must rotate the image 90 degrees, then save and close the file...then reopen the file, and rotate the image back to the original upright position, then save the file and close...and then upload to the forum.

Joshua · « **Reply #1120 on:** December 12, 2015, 03:46:37 PM »

OK thanks for the tip I'll give it a try. I must say I think I would miss that firm pop if they went soft though

u r most welcome...btw, i saw some red jabos on Daley's forum, maybe they have it? or some of the members of their forum?

Waterfall · « **Reply #1123 on:** December 13, 2015, 04:42:47 PM »

We just finished eating all our first grimal harvest (see photo), I enjoyed them so much I have purchased a coronata. Finding space for it will be difficult, do they do well in containers or will it grow more rapid in the ground?
