Worm Farmer that is too cool!
I have had a few Pineapples growing in a pot but I've never overwintered one and had it fruit. The bananas ain't bad either!

I would have liked if it was a little bigger, and after picking it I should have left it on the plant another day or two.

Just ate about 1/3 of a 5 lb soursop, had my first rollinia from the yard this week, and am getting at least 1 pineapple a day this week! The soursop and rollinia were the best I've ever had. Also harvesting miracle berries, valencia oranges, lots of papaya, and an assortment of greens. We definitely have seasons in Hawaii as far as fruit grows, and June seems to be a very prolific month. July-Sept will be all about the white pineapple. Probably 50+ coming.

Peach from the tree at our house. Planted by the previous owner, so no idea what cultivar. Biggest one ever, nearly a pound, and good flavor. The flavor of fruit from this tree is incredibly variable. Of fruits harvested the same day, near each other in the canopy, some will be juicy and sweet, others mealy and flavorless. Any ideas about why that would be?

Emily - Let that pineapple get good and yellow on the kitchen counter. I had a few small ones this year cause I let them fruit in pots. They were still very good. Way better than store bought. When it smells ripe cut it up and enjoy!
BTW -- didn't you hear that we can't grow Concord grapes in south Fla? ![]() All the experts say so - will be big disease magnets. Well, I miss my Concords that I grew up with up north so I put in 2 vines this year anyway. Got them from Isons. The seeded one is up to the top wire already and the 2 cordons I trained are 3 and 6 ft long. The other is unseeded. I put the bare root vines in the ground only 3 months ago -- amazing. Will be prepared to spray though when/if disease shows up. Dan |

I thought Concords were a very dark purple?
I wish they were easily grown here. Researchers are working on a seedless muscadine. They have already crossed grapes with Muscadines with good result so whats genetically around the corner could be amazing!
