Re: From Pup To Fruit
In the Sacramento valley it took 2 full years from a TC plant, just to get a bloom on my Ice Cream and Dwarf Orinoco. Still waiting on the fruit...:lurk:

Re: From Pup To Fruit
Planted my ice cream from Jarred at the beginning of October 2007, and now she is huge with lots of pups and I am looking for a flag every day!!

Re: From Pup To Fruit
In Houston, Texas, the time from planting to fruit was 14 months....now if I could just get a firm idea of how long it'll be from fruit to "in my belly", I'd be a happy camper...

Re: From Pup To Fruit
Fred, 3-4 months from time of emergence.

Re: From Pup To Fruit
Taylor, is that from 1st hand experience?
There's another thread on here about someone whose ice creams weren't ready to eat until 8 months after bearing fruit. That seems like a long time to me, so I'm looking for input from anyone who has grown them. |
Re: From Pup To Fruit
I think that person had their's fruit right before winter, and then go all the way through the winter without growth (dormancy), and then they didn't ripen until it was warm out the NEXT summer. That is the only thing I can think of.
I will have some 1st hand experience this fall with my harvest of my Cal Gold! |

Re: From Pup To Fruit
What I'm hearing is that in subtropical climates, it is often 14 months from pup (not TC) to flower, then about 4 months to "ripe" fruit. So it would seem that early April is the time to start a pup on its 1.5 year journey.
