Re: pepino, yacon, solanum, artichoke& tobacco
mine had fruit on it when I put it in the greenhouse. It bloomed outside and the bees pollenated it. So it had fruit set on it as soon as it bloomed, I think it was maybe like July or August, I know for sure it was by September. I'd have to look at my pictures because I took a picture of it when it bloomed.
Some of mine were spiny and some were just fuzzy. Are yours doing that too? The most spiny ones were the most interesting to look at. This one that we ate fruit from is what i'd call semi-spiny. It's not got too many, but just enough that it's not that much fun to carry around the plant without a long sleeve shirt on!
